Jennifer Poole, Hannah Fowlie, May Friedman, Carla Rice, and Ingrid Mündel.
Title: Method as Encounter: The Affects and Impacts of Digital/Multimedia Storytelling
Date and Time: June 5, 2026 | 12PM to 1.30PM EST
Venue: Online (Zoom)
In this panel presentation, the panelists draw on The Work of Stories in the World, a SSHRC funded research project that conceptualizes method as encounter—an affective, ethical, and relational praxis—nested within digital and multimedia storytelling with justice-denied and justice-desiring communities. Drawing from feminist, decolonial, and Black liberatory traditions, their method foregrounds storytelling as a site of co-creation, where knowledge is not extracted but horizontally and collaboratively shaped through emotional, political, and embodied engagements and encounters. This project gestures toward posthumanist and neomaterialist theories to consider, in Barad’s terms, how bodies, technologies, and narratives “intra-act”—how we are made, unmade, and remade through the stories we tell and receive.
