Proclaiming Our Stories: Creating a Community Digital
Digital storytelling is a powerful form of sharing personal experiences that enables individuals and communities to proclaim and reclaim their cultural identities and narratives through personal and meaningful items like photos or home movies. We are especially interested in archiving an object and story from your time at Indiana University that will form part of La Casa's Digital Community Archive. We welcome your stories, illustrated by an artifact, on what it means to be Latine or Latin-American during your time at Indiana University.
Sign-up ahead of time and bring any of the following personal artifacts for digitization and inclusion in the La Casa Community Digital Archive:
- Photos (print or photo already on your phone/tablet)
- Documents like letters, postcards, etc.
- Journal entries
- Small objects like a figurine, jewelry, etc. (under 12 inches tall and wide)
- Video recordings from your phone or tablets (up to 30 mins)
- Videos on VHS, DVD or miniDV formats (can only digitize up to 30 mins)
