Storytelling is the fiber that weaves together our collective history; it’s how personal and cultural histories have been passed down through generations from time immemorial.

The modern storyteller has a plethora of unusual choices to disseminate their tale. There are chain novels, collaborative tales told through photographed tattoos, geotagged digital books, and short stories made entirely from the titles of other books. The art of storytelling has clearly never been so…bizarre.

From collaborative stories on skin to google maps to share horror stories, storytelling is one of the oldest art forms as well as a form of social communication.
