Nova Ahmed, Farlina Barik, Zareen Tasnim, Jasmine Jones · 2019
Bangladesh has a rich history of storytelling for cultural, historical, social, and personal memories. Family stories in particular are powerful ways to reflect on relationships along with social values in a particular snapshot of time. Our goal is to derive insights for the design of culturally and value-sensitive digital storytelling tools for families in Bangladesh to preserve and share their stories. This paper describes ongoing work to understand the kinds of stories people tell, as well as the experience of listening to recorded stories.
