    Diary of West Rotterdam

    I recorded sounds from the West Rotterdam,
    while walking around the neighborhood of


    Leeszaal for several days. This action was part of my first experiments when I was in attempt to understand how gender binaries regarding voice are reflected in space, especially public space.

    Amplification of female voices

    Player

    The player is an audio collection of voices and sounds from the meetings I have co-organised, references from my research, various internet sources, and soundwalks that I have done. It is a digital utterance that intends to be a reminder to the first forms of excluded female vocal expressions. I am using this material in my podcasts by mixing and overlayering them and creating a form of narrative with my own voice.
