Abstract
This short commentary accompanies (IM/E)Migration, a piece of digital fiction by the same author. Combined, they are the output of a critical making project that interrogates literary and social empathy through fiction.
(IM/E)Migration is a collection of 7.9 billion multimodal migration narratives generated through the random selection of multiple variables. Its creation was motivated by the author’s research into empathy but also a desire to reflect on and engage with their own family history of migration. It is suggested that readers engage with (IM/E)Migration first, before reading the commentary.
