Cool new chapters from Spring Short Stories
Welcome to our daily collection of spring short stories, which is part of our big creative arts, seasonal storytelling, and AI research initiative. We wanted this to be a fun and experimental way to see how the changing seasons affect the way we tell tales. It is all about staying curious and learning how to use new digital tools to build digital literacy while exploring the world waking up after a long winter.
These stories help us reach our goals in storytelling, scriptwriting, technology, and creative talent development while looking closely at urban environments and Northern city experiences during the messy spring thaw. We are focused on exploring how the environment around us shapes the scripts and stories we create every day. Please remember that this work is totally exploratory and experimental in nature, so we are just playing around and learning as we go.
