'Scape the Hood - San Francisco

'Scape the Hood

'Scape the Hood is a locative storytelling project conceived for the 8th annual Digital Storytelling Festival. A group of storytellers, artists, and technologists put together a narrative archeology experiment, combining digital storytelling and emerging technology by overlaying a virtual landscape on the physical world. The audience walks the streets and listens to the neighborhood stories while experiencing sights and sounds from both the physical and the virtual world.

Project Artaud is a part of 'Scape the Hood, and is the first major GPS-enabled locative media project in San Francisco (Mission district). Artaud brings the stories of the artists and art organizations from inside the building and out onto the street to show what it is like to live and work within a concentrated community of artists.
