An interface, designed in close cooperation with elderly people, makes it possible for them to listen to or play digital clips from a large database. The material contains songs, sounds, images and movies from the 1920s to the 1980s. The clips inspire memories which lead to animated conversations around the Storytable. Conversations can be led by facilitators in a residential home, or the residents can do everything for themselves.

The purpose of the Storytable is to increase the quality and enjoyment of life in retirement and residential homes. Additional benefits of the Storytable are decreased social isolation and improved memory.

The Storytable is connected to a closed network on the internet. This network makes it possible to update the tables with new material, and to distribute interesting material and responses to the main database.
