When asked about SMITH's Six-Word Memoirs, I often tell people that sharing those six little words is easily done here: simply type, publish, and share. But those short, short life stories can be explored through different mediums—such as a "river" (of sorts). Launched by three RIT faculty members—Xanthe Matychak, a visiting lecturer in the E. Philip Saunders College of Business, Michelle Harris, an assistant professor in the B. Thomas Golisano College of Computing and Information Sciences, and Andrea Hardy, a First-Year Enrichment instructor—created what they call "River Memoir." It caught the attention of creative minds at the World Maker Faire in New York City, where the project was recently showcased.
