About Demokratie erLeben

The scrollytelling project "Demokratie erLeben" (Living Democracy) was developed as a prototype within the cultural hackathon 'Coding da Vinci Westfalen-Ruhrgebiet' between October and December 2019.

The narrative as well as the stop-motion videos were created based on (and under usage of) photos, sources and materials from the Archive of the Workers' Youth Movement.

In 2020, as part of a 3-months-grant from Coding da Vinci, the project was completely renewed, expanded, and optimized for the purposes of the archive.

The photographs and image cards have been digitized by the Archive of the Workers' Youth Movement and were provided under a CC BY-SA 3.0 DE license. Also used were sounds from the Sounds of Changes project collection (CC BY 4.0 license), the Radio Play Box, and the BBC Sound Effects Archive. Images from Wikimedia Commons have been used as well.

The source code runs under an MIT license.
The story and the media files created especially for the project are released under a CC BY-SA 3.0 license.
