Series: Speech Acts
Produced by Joan Schuman
An exploration of the complexity of language.
A bound and gagged voice asks three questions about the loss of language ("Bound," "Gagged," "Stutter"); the nosy neighbor of Echo and Narcissus offers her opinions in a mock interview ("Echo"); and a couple remembers their first year of marriage when the husband practiced complete silence ("Silence"). True stories sit next to a mock interview and sound metaphors fill the aural space in this richly sonic radio art narrative. Series total length: 27:03. Individual pieces may air alone, especially "Echo" and "Silence," but best broadcast as a full series/piece.
Suggested airplay order is as follows:
1. Bound
2. Echo
3. Gagged
4. Silence
5. Stutter
