Advisor: Mosse Sjaastad
This project crafts screen-based tools for collaborative storytelling, based on data found in
digital photography and information relating to travel. It aims to make tools that facilitate
longer, more consistent narratives and stories of personal experience, instead of ever shorter
status updates and tweets. Working with code, visualisation and storytelling techniques, the
goal is to enable users to find patterns in their content and be inspired to tell stories in col-
laboration with friends. Digital photography and travel information will serve as the basic
materials, as this is a rich source of personal data, and because people often experience stories
worth telling while travelling.
