We’ll start workshopping your stories for “Re: Audiography” during class on Tuesday the 19th. In the meantime, you might start not only listening to your peers’ audiographies, but also searching for some example material. There are classics like the work of Marshall McLuhan, who made an audio version of one of his books, The Medium Is the Massage. There’s a clip above, but you can listen to all of it here.
There’s also…
(1) This American Life,
(2) The work of The Kitchen Sisters, including this piece: “The Day the Earth Stood Still”,
(3) Locally, the KEXP documentaries (after all, you’ll be making a documentary later in the quarter), and
(4) Old radio material, such as War of the Worlds (1938):
Listen to War of the Worlds in its entirety.
Got examples you want to share? Leave a comment below. Or write me an email. Or tell me during class! Take care, everyone.
