Tales from the Towpath Workshop 2: Building Immersive Stories

Two connected immersive literature-making workshops for writers explore ways into writing site-responsive texts and how they can be disseminated so form complements subject. Using the draft text created at the first workshop, this workshop focuses on creative aspects of digitalising and presenting your work using projection, unusual print formats and location-specific tools. Participants are guided through a choice of tools to produce a draft immersive text.
