Description

Digital storytelling is an outgrowth of the field of new media studies, a humanistic discipline that explores the nexus of computing, science and visual culture. Digital storytelling began as a workshop-based approach utilizing digital media to create short audio-visual stories, frequently oriented towards the autobiographical and confessional, but has subsequently expanded in its application to include fields such as public history. This roundtable discussion will present digital storytelling projects produced as the result of participation in the 2017 summer season of the Vayots Dzor Fortress Landscapes project in Armenia. On a broader level, the round table will discuss the role of digital storytelling as a tool for public presentation of research.
