How do you create a linear story from the fragments of your life?
Join Talia and Phoebe in an exploration around telling personal
stories. In this session the two audio makers will share helpful
techniques for self-interview and finding your own voice. Plus,
how can you create personal portraits that move beyond language
and into the abstract?
