Digital Narratives Studio

Current Digital Narrative conditions are heavily informed by a rehearsal of doom, gloom, and crises, that we call ‘politics of despair’. These politics of despair produce stories that reinforce the brokenness of the world, while breaking the bodies that are the most vulnerable, and media practices that generate inaction and resignation in the face of seemingly insurmountable crises.

The function of Digital Narratives Studio is to examine how we can find new ways to address these urgencies by reorienting towards hope and reframing crises as catalysts for collective care action.
