What it is
Two products under one name. The 50-page megasite babakokum.com is about how the stories of Ukrainian settlers and Indigenous peoples of Canada are woven together. And the scarf app at scarf.babakokum.com: a browser story where you assemble your own rushnyk and export it as an SVG at 70x70 cm. The app has a festival mode, a kiosk mode and a hidden mode for Indigenous advisers with open cards and sources. In September 2026 the app grew into a full game, "The Print Shop on the Porch".
