Oral Histories

I sort of read (flicked through) this book after coming across it in Didsbury library. It got me thinking about how, or if, animation and drawing could be used in the process of collecting stories and in oral history interviews. Especially when there is a language difference.

The Oral History Reader
Edited by Robert Perks and Alistair Thomson, Routledge 2006

Postscript:
I have been using this process a lot in my teaching. Drawing, diagrams, explanations in pencil. I'll post examples below.

Tower Bawher

Tower Bawher, by Theodore Ushev

I came across this incredible film by Theodore Ushev and couldn't believe I had never seen it before. The director described the process of making it as being like being in a trance, which is just how it feels to watch it. A kind of outpouring of visual memory.

I have been checking out the latest commissions by Animate projects, and really like this piece by Jordan Baseman. I was particularly struck by his editing of the original material. The original transcript is an interesting read in itself, link below.
