Narrative is an important subject for the contemporary investigative, educational and creative processes. Its significance derives from the fact that discourse tends to codification, specialization and institutionalization, whereas narrative operates at the margins of discourse, benefiting from diverse, flexible, interdisciplinary knowledge spaces, making discourse problematic and opening it up to the dialogic.
Narrative is a way of thinking and a reading-writing research procedure that reinforces memorization of the past and articulates the present; that addresses itself to a diverse
culture, its know-how, practices and territories; that reconfigures the communicative ecosystem. Narratives are tales that may be written, visual, audiovisual, sounding, performative, and are approached in a panoramic, expanded, hybrid or interactive way, displaying their content through multiple writings and communication platforms where the narrated actors and the spectators taken on participative roles.
