At this year's INBOUND 2015 conference Robert Michael Murray discussed how data will shape the way we connect with one another, create contextual moments of engagement, and enable us to share the stories of our lives in ways never once imagined. Murray shared learnings from his time leading National Geographic's social media efforts. And tips from his new work leveraging the power of data, design, and technology to create experiences that deliver more meaningful and personalized moments. This work is associated with a new startup his company, Matchfire Co., is launching in the coming weeks: Mently (http://mently.co/).

An accident is an unexpected event that
changes one or more lives. It most affects a
focal character, and the driving force of the
incident is beyond that persons control.
A discovery is a passage from ignorance
to knowledge. It causes a change that
arouses a persons feelings and stimulates
a change in attitude.
A decision is a commitment to take action.
Jean Paul Sartre says we are the sum of
our decisions, our choices. Decisions are
of two sorts, expedient or ethical.
A deed means actually doing something. A
character carries out a decision by taking
action.
Cinematic moments
A genuinely useful cinematic moment always drives the action forward,
increases the tension, or penetrates characters more deeply.
