KALEIDOSCOPE
Kaleidoscope is a project, offering a space for young people, storytellers, and change-makers across Europe to have a voice on a wide array of social issues and topics that resonate with them. Through mediums such as writing, visual art, filming and podcasting.
Kaleidoscope: exploring experiences of exile through creative media 2024
Kaleidoscope: exploring experiences of exile through creative media was a 10 month project exploring cultural and social issues in different European countries. Born out of our cooperation with a previous Erasmus Plus project SCRIBERSHIVE UK we wanted to honour the spirit of the project and develop it to reach new audiences.
Participants from 7 countries (Poland, Spain, Italy, Georgia, Armenia, Lithuania and Ukraine) came together to receive training in written journalism, graphics/comic strips and video/podcast production. The participants then returned to their communities and used the Kaleidoscope methodology with their young people.
Kaleidoscope works as a cycle of 3 creative activities. Each activity produces a media product, which is then passed on to another group to develop in the next activity.
Specifically, this process goes as follows:
- Participants from Country A produce written pieces on a project theme. They pass the finished articles to country B.
- Participants from Country B reflect on the written articles, and based on these they produce graphics or comic-strip stories, which they pass on to country C.
- Participants in Country C review the graphic, and based on this, they create videos (or podcasts). Each country group will be involved in all activities and each piece produced goes through a different cultural lens as the young people might interpret each piece differently. This highlights that we all might deal with the same issues but experience them in different ways with different perspectives and view points.
