The Story Converter

Overview

The Story Converter is an ongoing interactive project. Exhibition visitors are invited to write something personal on cards hidden inside a custom-made box, unable to see as they write.

Nasir Nasrallah then uses the scrawled texts to create a drawing, combining the donated material with his own experiences and thoughts. The black box becomes a machine, transforming inputs into outputs, both of which are then displayed alongside each other. In exchange for their participation, visitors receive a handmade notebook created from recycled paper.
