    The Stories

    I took transcripts of each interview, photos or video I could collect from my co-researchers, their original poetry, art and other creative data to weave short multimedia narratives that reflected some part of their story.

    Each co-researcher was asked to prepare a creative response to a set of incubation questions about their experience of living with low moods, and I incorporated those creative responses into each of these narratives.

    These narratives are not intended to be taken literally, they are, depending upon the materials provided by the participant, an abstraction meant to uncover aspects of the experience that can not be communicated with written language.

    The date listed is the date the interview originally took place
