The Acts of Listening Lab (ALLab) is a hub for research-creation on the transformative power of listening in the context of oral history performance. It brings together artists-researchers, communities, and activists from across disciplines and cultures interested in exploring alternative and creative ways of making life stories matter in the public sphere.
By using a range of sound, video, translation, and playback technologies, listening events are prepared and documented. Using focused groups discussions and other methodologies, reflection on listening is encouraged, documented and analyzed.
