ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses a case study on children’s digital storying of their aesthetic experiences in a local forest. Drawing on a relational materialist approach, the study focuses on the aesthetic and relational dynamics at play in digital storying events with an augmented story crafting tool, exploring how the digital material interlaced with and created movements in children’s aesthetic experiences. The study provides empirical knowledge of how aesthetic experiences co-emerge in the intra-actions between digital devices, augmented reality characters, children, and the forest, contributing to research on how digital storying can work as a pedagogical method for promoting children’s aesthetic awareness of their living environments.
