We Are Stories 📒 has a life of its own now!

We Are Stories is a public storytelling event based on the idea that we, people, are more than everything we think we are; we are stories. Complex, layered, unmatched, rich in content, ever-continuous, and interconnected.

The event is a public process of filling in a human-scale large accordion book that opens in various directions and has layers of interconnected smaller-scale accordion books.

Participants write, cut shapes, attach images, walk through the pages through cut-out gaps, write notes on musical pages, make marks, and alter the work in any way.

There will be one large folding book, installed at a location to be announced, and smaller accordion books traveling through neighborhoods across San Francisco. Over the course of a year, these smaller books will collect stories and eventually be folded into the main book.

After the event, all pages and covers are scanned and photographed in detail. Textures, cut-outs, and other alterations will be documented and studied in detail.

The material will be compiled and produced as an archival, hardbound limited publication.
