Narrate!

Narrate aims to provide a platform for youth leaders to share their stories. Stories can both engage others to a cause and, by undermining oppressive dehumanizing narratives, be a powerful form of activism in their own right.

the PROBLEM

Our design philosophy was driven by the desire to get out of the way of users and their stories. The mapped stories help community members with common interests learn about each other and connect.


 

The central element of our design is a map of geo-tagged multimedia user stories. The geospatial presentation serves as a natural and intuitive interface for browsing personal stories grounded in physical community.

Before (Left) and After (Right)


We prioritized simplicity and directness in the design of the UI and went for a toned down aesthetic that accentuates the visual media uploaded by users.
