This sound archive consists of audible extracts of works and interviews by
Lawrence Abu Hamdan together with specific fragments of juridical listening
and speaking collected from a wide range of sources including the trials of
Saddam Hussein and Judas Priest, UK police evidence tapes, films such as
Decoder and readings from texts like Italo Calvino's A King Listens.
Listeners can access this collection of tracks articulated through
listening-seminars and voice-activated audio installations in which
individual components of the archive are pooled, extracted and turned into
longer audio essays, texts and investigations. The narratives folded into
these 3-minute segments expand and combine, generating narrative
compositions and essays that weave through the content of this archive and
plunge listeners into the heart of a discussion about the relationship
between listening and politics, borders, human rights, testimony, truth and
international law.

Enjoy!
