in conversation.
The Adventures of Liam began as a way to make bedtime storytelling more participatory. I would establish a situation and ask what happened next. Liam might redirect the plot, invent a character or draw the figure he could see more clearly than I could describe.
Generative images offered another shared surface. An imagined place could become visible while the story was still alive, giving us something to question, alter and carry into the next episode. The archive will grow intermittently as Liam’s relationship with narrative, drawing and fiction changes.
