This innovative course examines indigenous storytelling as a creative art form, a mode of spirituality, a medium of cultural communication and a tool for the preservation and transmission of knowledge. The course utilizes digital web applications which enable multi-media story-telling, linear and non-linear structured narratives; spatially and locally positioned knowledge texts, and performance based media. Students do not require advanced computer skills. They will develop a range of story-telling skills in order to create new stories and to re-tell and revivify old ones.
