Abstract

This article explores the development of an audio praxis that combines oral history, sound design, storytelling, and archival material to engage with and critically examine history. The author reflects on the creation and impact of a number of audio projects that address historical silences, elevate marginalised voices, and engender a more critical understanding of history. By analysing the audio projects as well as related workshops and community engagement initiatives the article demonstrates the power of podcasts as tools for academic research, public education and digital preservation.

Keywords: archive, history, sound design, marginalised voices, community engagement, digital preservation
