In the course of developing iNation, we quickly discovered that live storytelling events are one of the best ways to engage communities with their personal immigrant stories. Live iNation events usually consist of a community coming together in a physical space and sharing their personal stories either on the iNation platform (mobile or desktop) or in an analog manner on physical storycards. We have collaborated with an amazing graphic illustrator, Anthony Weeks, who then takes the stories told at the event, and creates a live mural, consisting of all the stories told at the event, in real time. It’s amazing to watch. We also often screen the iNation films in conjunction with the live storytelling/mural, as well as give the community a chance to stand up and tell their personal stories in front of each other, which is often a very powerful and moving experience.
