The idea

Keeping citizens curious, in place

The STORYBOX 'BeCurious' Totem is a new product launching in 2026 as part of the STORYBOX Places program, building on five years of insight into delivering digital culture programs and activations through STORYBOX.

Where the STORYBOX Cube promotes event-based digital programs and storytelling activations, the Totem equips citizens-in-place — a listening post and directory for local insights, events, music, tours and community programs, moderated and curated by precincts and partners.

It's designed for both temporary and permanent installations, with an option for a First Nations name or artwork commission.
