Center for Digital Storytelling
Last week I was involved in a Digital Story Telling workshop at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (at Federation Square here in Melbourne). Digital story-telling is a genre that seeks to record and preserve the individual stories that form the collective identity of a community. We recorded some of the people that helped create the early Melbourne Moomba Festival (The festival is 50 years old this year). Gordon Chisholm and myself made a movie about Max Kirwan who introduced waterskiing to Melbourne’s Yarra River in 1956.
