2008 Storytelling Memories

The Storytelling Memories prototype illustrates ways to record and make available, memory testimony and artefacts of Bomber Command Veterans. Storytelling Memories provides the framework for the user to synthesise a physical relationship with the memories and artefacts, which informs an emotional connection. Memory testimony is a reflective narrative, visually and emotionally rich within the mind of the contributor. This project suggests that if this richness of memory could be provided within a visual context, which is substantiated by the unique situation of each memory, it could foster an engaging understanding and relationship between the museum visitor and the memories.
