Digital Storytelling: Selected Resources: DS Projects

SUMMER 2020

Storytelling

Storytelling is one of the oldest human art forms.

Ancient cultures maintained their histories and culture of self through the stories they told and retold.

(Ladson-Billings, 2013)

La Cocina

Voices From the Kitchen shares stories from cooks and kitchens less often heard. Over the last five years, the twice-yearly stage performance featured photography, animation, video, sound, and an interactive food experience for the audience.

Cooking Across Generations

Cooking Across Generations brings to life a vision for a multicultural, inclusive America where refugee communities celebrate their ancestral foods and culture and build their shared power.

Arkansas Soul

Arkansas Soul is a fresh, digital media platform geared toward BIPOC – primarily by BIPOC – in Arkansas.
