She told me about the burgeoning new field of "digital storytelling." I gather this involves giving communities tools to reflect on their own identities, especially through the use of recording devices like digital cameras and videocameras. There is a lot of material about this, including case histories, at the Berkeley Center for Digital Storytelling http://www.storycenter.org/ MIT also has a dynamic program ("The Center for Reflective Community Practice") re which more material is available on the web at http://web.mit.edu/crcp/program.html Fascinating and inspiring stuff!
