“Bibliobandido, Story Eater” unfolds in semi-tropical, rural Honduras when in 2010, artist Marisa Morán Jahn and a group of youth from a low-literacy community invented the idea of a roving bandit who eats stories. To appease Bibliobandido’s insatiable appetite and avert general calamity, youth nourished him with stories they’ve written. Captivated, Honduran youth enacted the legend of Bibliobandido on a monthly basis, weaving an elaborate cosmology (arch-enemies, getaway vehicles, and corroborators) whose allure rivals Santa Claus and transcends stark realities of a crumbling school system. At the same time, Marisa brought the Bibliobandido legend to youth in North American informal learning spaces including Brooklyn and New York Public Library, Seattle Public Library, Mozilla-supported afterschool programs, Queens Museum, Pérez Art Museum, and more. All told, the Bibliobandido cosmology has transformed over 15,000 young believers, strengthening literacy across media and platforms from paper-based storycrafting, digital journalism, paper circuitry, and more.
