Fictioning - transmedia workshop

Fictioning is an exercise in attentiveness considered a potential opening towards the development of new aesthetic sensibilities and mythopoetic fictional universes. Working across different senses and media, participants create a series of fictions based on sounds recorded in the local environment. Exploring notions of collaborative fictioning, sounds recorded around a specific location are turned into interwoven sketches and fragments of narrative. The result is edited collaboratively and included in an expanding archive of printed material documenting the various iterations of the project in different contexts and settings.

The workshops was firstly held by Ola Ståhl and Sara Hyltén-Cavallius at Petra Lilja Design Gallery, Kirseberg, Malmö. Developed by Ola Ståhl and Petra Lilja and held in Kristianstad as part of the exhibition Wandelost and at STPLN, Malmö as part of HÅLL! Sustainability by Design Festival. Link
