Creatives are always told to “tell better stories.” But where do those stories actually come from?

In this brief thought-out-loud delivery, Eugene will explore the idea that “local” isn’t just where you’re from or where you live. It’s every place, culture, and experience that has shaped how you see the world in the ways most significant to you. The most interesting storytellers aren’t defined by their street, neighbourhood, or hometown but by how many versions of “local” they’ve learned to carry with them, and how they use them.
