What is this?

Welcome to the official blog for the Speaking of Silence performance project This site is a place to share your stories and thoughts about silence and to engage in a dialogue with other interested writers, artists, thinkers, activists, and people around the world on the subject of silence and the power it has in shaping who we are and how we relate to the world.

Every few days or so, I will be posting a provocative question or quote to generate more thought and responses from you. You may respond to the quote or let it be a springboard to other stories you'd like to tell in the comments section You may also submit a story unrelated to the current Post Question by hitting the comment bar.

So share! Nothing is too small or too big. And you can share as often as you like. I am hopeful that this becomes a really dynamic space for people to visit every few days.

I hear you...

It's become clear from the lack of response to my posts over the past year that this is simply not the right place to gather stories and start a dialogue about this subject. I wish I knew why. But the silence in response to a call for interaction and communication has sent a very loud message. I'm listening. And the sound of one's own voice calling out gets tiresome and unhealthy after a while.

I've decided to let this project go and try to find a way to create WITH others more actively. It is what I most love to do and it's been a very long time since I've been able to do it.

I will be closing down and deleting the blog in a month after the Strindberg and Beckett performances are complete. Do come see them! Do tap me afterwards say hello. And do comment here in the meantime.

Thank you to all who have participated so far. I hold your stories close and am honored to be their caretaker.

Keep on telling your story.

Gina
