Soundings
Soundings is the sandbox for all student work from the Stanford Storytelling Project (SSP). SSP is an arts program at Stanford University that explores how we live in and through stories and how we can use them to change our lives. Our mission is to promote the transformative nature of traditional and modern oral storytelling, from Lakota tales to Radiolab, and empower students to create and perform their own stories. The project sponsors courses, workshops, live events, and grants, along with its radio show State of the Human.

“It was a makeshift circle in the tent and someone suggested that we play spin the bottle…” What is it about a first kiss that makes it so interesting? Everyone has a story to tell even if it isn’t romantic or mint flavored. This week, the Stanford Storytelling Project asked you to tell us about your first kiss.
