This lecture performance explores voice as both echo and origin—how sound reverberates through time while enabling return to invisibilised knowledges and futures yet imagined. Drawing from our artistic practice with South African oral histories —as sound, story, and song— we examine voice's capacity to create new worlds through the radical potential of multi-vocality against singular meta-narratives.
