Digital Storytelling projects
Over the last few years we have realized digital stories with various institutions.
Working together with museums we mostly focus on the documentation of history through contemporary witnesses. But it is not only capturing personal experiences in historical contexts, but also the creation of contemporary documents, e.g. in the project "Tell us your story! Digital Stories about migration and culture" we worked together with immigrants and focussed on the topics of migration and integration into society.
Furthermore we have a strong interest in capturing and visualizing the impact of funding like grants or scholarships. These "funding stories" were mainly created in the US and try to show the positive outcome of financial support on individual careers as well as on groups.
