The details of the forthcoming Digital Storytelling Festival in Aberystwyth are now on the website of the town’s Arts Centre. I’m sure it’s not too late to book if you can get yourself to the west coast of Wales for the event on June 17th 2009.
I don’t like missing this event but I’m in Dorset for most of June delivering workshops in Wimborne Minster.

The digistoriesuk YouTube Channel is live

I have created a YouTube channel called “digistoriesuk” to display digital stories created in my workshops.

I had to add the uk on the end because there is already a digistories channel which is being used by someone in California called Fred Mindlin who is running workshops over there.

The first stories to be uploaded are from the Ingenious series of workshops funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering with the Universities of Salford and Southampton.

Ten stories

Ten people engaged in the multistory.net workshop have indentified and scripted their stories today. It was a large storycircle but the storytellers all came with some skills. Tomorrow is a complicated day scanning their images and recording their scripts. I normally structure this as a series of appointments but in this case I have to find ways of getting them to work unsupervised.

Alexander Solzhenitskyn has died aged 89. Coincidentally I had brought his book August 1914 to read again 30 years after my first largely unsuccesful attempt. Now I feel I must do it justice.
