Future Histories Lab’s fall colloquium, Topics in City and Metropolitan Planning: planning Place-Based Storytelling Techniques and Technologies, will explore techniques of place-based storytelling through a series of guest speakers who are producers of place-based storytelling projects in the Bay area. What traditional and emerging technologies do they employ to create the experiences? What lessons can we learn from their efforts to point out local histories embedded in the landscape?
The colloquium consists of a series of guest speakers who are producers of place-based storytelling projects in the Bay area. They will talk about their motivations, processes, and tools. Interspersed we will have “off-weeks” to debrief and digest the issues raised by the previous speaker presentations. Together we will try to examine the infrastructure of public storytelling.
