IM HISTORIES!

Hello everyone! It’s been a while since I posted on this blog, but I’m back!

There is a new project I am looking forward to which aims at bridging the past with the present by getting our senior citizens to provide primary accounts of a community’s history (about the school, the neighborhood, the lifestyle, the people…)!

The project I’m spazzing about will focus on the history of West Windsor Plainsboro–my home town! Every town is rich with its own history, and its a pity how little community members know about where they live in or have lived in for 5-10+ years! 

This project will hopefully reconnect the old voices with the new so that community members learn to value every-day things around them and become more appreciative of where they live in. (Plus, we’re using youtube videos~!)

This project is also an “IM”! and Interactive Mapping project!

To find out more, visit the website: www.imhistories.com

I’ll write more about it when the project is finished!
