Abstract
Join two storytelling scholars for a facilitated workshop on multiple storytelling, inviting complex relationships with the more-than-human. Dr Joanna Gilar leads us in the communal reading and re-telling of multiple, lesser known variants of a common folktale - the witch hare – inviting us to move away from stories where becoming animal is a sign of injury or something sinful, and towards a deeper porosity and ecological engagement. Techne student Jon Norman-Mason relates the tales to the reality of urban space, exploring how to re-enchant the mundane and accept the non-human life in our towns. Through that multiplicity of voices, we are invited into a deepening complexity of collective imagination and awareness.
