The Kelvin Grove Urban Village – Sharing Stories website launched today – the digital stories produced at a workshop I facilitated last December now have a potential public, which is fantastic!
“The Kelvin Grove Urban Village site has a rich and varied history, including its indigenous, military, educational, residential and natural history. The Sharing Stories project has been developed to inform the community on the Village’s history.
Stories, photographs, artwork, archival information and digital stories are shared from the past and the present by students and community participants who chose to share their memories, inspirations and research about the Kelvin Grove Urban Village site.”

Hi Jean, just had a look at the Sharing Stories website. Well done. Had a read of one of the stories ‘Capt Frank Moran’. Was good to be able to read it. The digital stories download was as slow as a wet week on my dial up. I guess it zips along on cable. Unless I’ve got a QuickTime problem. Guess I’ll work it out. Will explore the site some more.
Daryll, the way they’re presented on the website is out of my hands, I’m afraid – but it’s a shame it was slow over dialup, considering how lo-res they are (and how much better they look at broadcast quality). Also a shame there’s no way to comment on the stories via the website – it’d be interesting to get some feedback from the participants’ peers
