Description
My 15 Minute City is a multimedia project with oral narratives, videos and maps specifically about walking to discover the virtues of downtown Kitchener as a 15 minute city. It presents a multimedia, digital, multi-dimensional, and multidisciplinary representation of the place, and the experience of people in that place.
This project is a collection of StoryMaps that provide a multimedia virtual experience of walking around My 15 Minute City in downtown Kitchener (DTK), Ontario. I define My 15 Minute City as the area encompassed by a 15 minute walking radius (1,000 metres) around the intersection of King and Queen Streets. The area is shown on the map by the purple circle and includes the downtown core and its surrounding neighbourhoods.
The collection is organized into two parts, stories about downtown Kitchener as-a-whole, and stories about specific places and events in the downtown.
The project is an outcome of my living, learning, teaching, and doing research in DTK for 30 years.
