Stories in Transit XI: Online Workshop with Giocherenda and Compass Collective

Stories in Transit XI: Online Workshop with Giocherenda and Compass Collective



A collaborative workshop with Giocherenda and Compass Collective.

30th January 2021

Online: UK, Palermo, Marseille

This was our second workshop online, playing Giocherenda's Wheel of Wishes, led by the creators of the game themselves. Working also with Sasha Harrington, Mhairi Gayer and participants from Compass Collective, we formed three groups and three stories. Each story started with that group's collective wish, soon encountering hurdles to get there, and the wheel giving them their protagonist's context and situation. To see and read more about these stories, go to our padlet page. We were also joined by Lila Azam Zangeneh, from Libraries without Borders.
