'Let's amplify unspeakable things' is an online platform that supports a space for exploration and research, regarding voice in public and its amplification, developed by Angeliki Diakrousi. It consists of a set of experiments that questions the establishment of authoritative/male voices that create exclusive speech platforms, along the assumption that voices have to be rational, authoritative (voice of expertise) etc. The intervention that changes the paradigm becomes <divclass="tooltip-wrap"style="display: inline;text-decoration:underline;">a set of podcasts <divclass="tooltip-content-right"><div>what conflicts or frictions the technical aspect provokes?</div></div></div>that revisit an archive of audio recordings produced in situated meetings and soundwalks. Every podcast exists on a way that creates repetetive layers of the same material. I perceive amplification as a way to create presence through repetition and multiplication. 'Let's amplify unspeakable things' is upsetting binaries such as male/female, expert/amateur, rational/irrational. It is about creating poetic (audio) narratives emerging from the contribution of people.
