Story Hunter is an exploration of the art - and the magic - of storytelling.
A person who can tell a story is gifted with the ability to help people understand and feel. A storyteller is an instrument for meaning.

This show is an album of stories, and thoughts about stories. It is my hope that by sharing in my stories, you will you will become the architect of your own.

There are worlds are information in our worlds that we don’t even know about. As I was walking past the ant bear hole a miraculous thing happened. A honeyguide came and invited me on an adventure. The bird hovered near me chattering with intense excitement. I was deeply moved by the collaboration between man and nature. I stood alone really feeling it, my own ties to the hunter gatherers. Unfortunately it was late and I could not go with the bird.
