a citywide listening project for Brisbane
Call out for Stories
Do
you have a tale to tell?
Calling the Past is an oral history
project mapping the people’s history of Brisbane.
We are currently
looking for contributors with strong personal experiences of what it used to be
like to live in Brisbane - witnesses to events that shaped the city, interesting
professions, love stories, transformative tales, funny anecdotes and
unforgettable characters that were all part of the memory of the city.
We will be
recording your stories, editing them with sound and mapping them to their
locations. The project will go live for the month of June, transforming public
phone booths into free listening stations.
This is an
opportunity for your story to become part of Brisbane’s greater history, aswell
as to share in the memory of other’s experiences.
If you have a
story to share, please get in touch with either Nick -0468497690 or Laura
-0468433697 to arrange an interview. Alternatively, email callingthepast@gmail.com with your contact details.
