Our Story Tree

Our Story Tree is a collaborative, online storytelling environment that explores the idea of a people’s history. It focuses on people of Armenian descent, offering them a virtual venue where they can meet, make, and share rich media stories about their everyday lives, discover connections between their family and the wider community, and -- through reflection and interpersonal communication -- develop a shared intergenerational understanding of their complex history. The project combines network connectivity, Confectionary, a state-of-the-art story making toolkit, and a series of participatory ateliers within the Armenian community that introduce people of all ages to rich story-making and story-reflecting.
