This edition of Doc Now gathers eight gazes that converge in a space where they interrogate ways of storytelling, and emmanate in different directions towards the peripheral to find paths that consider and care for the protagonists and participants of the stories. 

By gazing towards the intimate, the communal, the imaginary, and the real, we respond to a narrative practice that aims to alter affects, and rethink stories that incite a change in the real world. As storytellers, narrators, and creators of images, sounds and texts, we’re interweaved by a responsibility towards the ways we represent our realities and those of others, and the creative potential to find other ways of conceiving what’s real.
