Creating dimension in stories using technology
One of the tools offered by Knightlab at NU is a method of embedding sounds. I am hoping to use it on a coyote-mapping project. SoundCite will enable us to hear the sounds of the coyotes we're writing about.
The project involves generating a crowdsourced map of coyote sightings. Embedding the sounds will enable us to bring readers into the experience
This is one way I am hoping to tell better stories, with more dimensions.
Recently, working with reporter Akiko Matsuda, we generated a storymap (below), using another of Knightlab's tools. We thought it might be an interesting way of telling a local story, without using traditional reportage.
