Familiar tales of others

short videos with people who i get to know via internet, advertising, or social network, who are willing to tell me a story. These stories will be part of a video installation where the visitor can describe the timeline of the stories, like in a role-game. He will have to show a word or a photograph to a camera, and that will sturt up a story that has the tag of the word or image he found interesting.
