spare-shadeHi!
I hope that you may be to participate in this project.
"the act of listening is the act of inscribing” project explores the notions of home, poem and the human voice.
I am asking you to voice your home.
This can be many things, said in many different ways.
It can be a thought, a feeling, an emotion, a memory, a confusion, whatever it is that is housing your being now.
Or, it can simply be your sense of home - a feeling of being at home.
Maybe it is just a word, a poem, or a thought that is on your mind right now. It could be a broken dish in your sink. Or, a place, a situation you are in. It can be a worry that is preoccupying you, or an aspiration you are pursuing. It can be this moment, or a memory. It can be a ruin, or a broken home.
Whatever home is for you, or whatever houses your thoughts or brings you closer to home, or to this moment, please voice it.
Time is a commodity in great demand but rather limited and jealousy guarded supply, so I sincerely appreciate you sharing it.
And I would appreciate if you record home in your voice as an audio-boo – my account is http://audioboo.fm/spare-shade .

noble1885Hi Roundhill School!
I just want to thank you for posting such great audio online. This is a great example of Haiku and I will share it with my pupils and teachers.
I would like to cross-post this recording on the EDUtalk website. This is a creative commons education community resource that I set up with a colleague, John Johnston, last year to collect educational audio captured using mobile devices (see http://edutalk.cc/the-edutalk365-project). I would like to use the embed feature on your AudioBoo channel to capture the code for the audio. Around 400 educators (mostly in the UK) are following the daily audio posts at EDUtalk.cc.
Please let me know if you are OK with this and I will post your recording on the site some time this week. Keep up the great work!
