Storyus Demo Collective - Public Frontpage

This is the public frontpage for the collective called +demo. A collective is typically a group of people who are looking to share more of their story together over time, or are perhaps more temporarily sharing in an activity or an event. An example Story Collection might be something spectacular like the European roadtrip I recently took with my family. Most of their story is on our private collective, but the family have agreed to share some of our story on this +demo account : Link to Eurotrip story collection. If you had a look at that story colelction you may have noticed different types of story: Moment, Postcard, Reflecting, Essay, Photostream. Each one is designed to encourage and enable a different kind of positive reflection, from a singular moment in time, or a curated 'reflecing' covering a specific period of time or activity. A Reflection can have at most 9 photos, forcing you to really consider what was most important to you. Here is Ben reflecting on 2017

Simple reflection on positive memories can have a positive effect on your mood and well being.

Constraints help you understand & appreciate what was really important to you.

Thanks to modern smartphones, these days it is pretty common for people to have a high quality camera in their pocket all day everyday. At a later date, trying to look over the most meaningful moments from all those photos can be like finding a needle in an ever-growing haystack, especially if they are being captured on multi devices and by many different people. Storyus encourages regular reflection to make reviewing less daunting, and by applying constraints also encourages the discovery of what was really important to us, and can help us to better know our friends and family.

Curation is an act of love.

Same adventure, different perspectives, different memories - reinforced.

During the summer of 2018 the Seymour family were fortunate enough to go on a 5200km European roadtrip. For 34 days Emma, Ben and their 2 children (aged 11 and 8) shared the same car, the same accomodation, the same experiences and adventures, and yet our perspectives, understanding and values lead to quite different observations, perceptions and memories. The trip really strengthened the family bonds, and reflectioning helped us get to know each other better.

No 'likes' ♥. No public follower counts. No Adverts.

You 'own' your story and can decide what was important, and how best to share it.

Social sharing is certainly important, and the bonds of friendship & kinship are forged through shared experiences, and strengthened and reinforced through reflecting and storytelling. We think there is a better way to capture, collate, curate your memories in order to collaborate on and celebrate your story.
