_cpzh4: This would be a hard one for me but I’d love to give it a go because I think the results would be fascinating.

Walk up to a complete stranger and ask them if you can take their picture a la the 100 strangers project. Also, using a mobile device or mp3 recorder and with the stranger’s permission, record a brief conversation with them; get their story.

Building on one of the ideas already submitted, add sound effects (or not if that enhances the storytelling experience best) to give it a textured soundscape.

Try to keep it brief, 2 minutes might be too long. Mind you if the story is really compelling, well, you gotta learn when to break the rules too. (It might be interesting to speak with a homeless person.)

Post the picture and audio track on slideshare.net, voicethread, flickr, or wherever you think you might be able to give it life beyond this assignment. Try to include a few lines about how doing this impacted you personally when you post. I wouldn’t require this but it would add more depth to the experience.

This should probably go in mashups but I’m submitting it in the audio section.
