SUMMARY:COHDS Choir: Sounds of Home\, Sounds of Elsewheres
DESCRIPTION:With Sara Lucas \n“Sounds of Home\, Sounds of Elsewheres” is a community choir project led by Sara Lucas\, open to COHDS members who want to sing together beyond their research. The repertoire will explore storytelling through song\, focusing on how personal and community histories are shared and passed down. \nThe project embraces the idea that everyone can express themselves through sound and movement\, using an inclusive approach to developing natural voices. Songs will be learned mainly by ear\, so no singing or music-reading experience is required. Rehearsals will emphasize breathwork\, harmony\, and unison singing\, encouraging diverse forms of expression and joy. The group will work toward a performance for COHDS’ 20th anniversary in October 2026\, with participation encouraged but not mandatory. \nSara Lucas is a composer-performer and vocalist with twenty years of ensemble experience. She has toured internationally with Callers and LADAMA\, produced multiple albums\, and taught community-based music programs worldwide.

SUMMARY:Symposium Channels of Testimony: Artistic Mediations of Listening
DESCRIPTION:How does art channel and reshape the way we listen to lived experience? \nJoin Amy Starecheski\, Director of Columbia University’s Oral History Master of Arts\, and Luis C. Sotelo\, Director of Concordia University’s Acts of Listening Lab (ALLab)\, for a conversation with three artist–scholar teams funded by ALLab to explore bold new pathways for mediating testimony through creative practice. This symposium brings together innovative practitioners working at the intersection of oral history\, performance\, sound\, and socially engaged art. Together\, we’ll delve into the practical and theoretical challenges of transforming real-life stories into artistic forms \n\n\nSpeakers and Projects \nT Braun and Franklin van Grieken \nSentir la Luz/Sense the Light  \nA research-creation project that investigates how digital mediation and virtual reality\, sound\, and light reshapes perception and listening in a group of people with visual impairment. This project is carried out in collaboration with Kim Sawchuk\, Kara Paul\, and Teatro Ciego. \n\nVanessa Terán and María Fernanda del Real  \nSucúa Haven \nMigrant Stories: Embodied Listening Lab \nInspired by Sucúa Haven\, a collection of migration stories created with Ecuadorian in Connecticut (United States)\, a group of Latin diaspora participants in Montreal (Canada)\, as well as Ecuadorians and other Latin American immigrants in Quito (Ecuador)\, will reflect on their own migratory experiences and create performances of embodied testimonies that places Sucúa Haven stories in dialogue with their own. \n  \nPeng Hsu \nCucumbers\, The Melancholy of a Turtle and a Girl’s Otaku’s Romance \nA novel/play creative project that explores BBR. BBR\, short for Broke Broke Recitation\, is my translation of the Mandarin term 碎碎唸 (siu siu nian)\, a phrase commonly used in Taiwan and China to describe how women chatter incessantly about daily and seemingly banal trivialities. Theorized here as a technique of queer narration\, BBR functions as a dramaturgical writing style through which the project examines housing justice\, an endangered turtle\, and the inarticulable experiences of constipation and yearning of romance. \n\nModerator \nLuis C. Sotelo Castro \nDirector\, Acts of Listening Lab (Concordia University) \nDiscussant \nAmy Starecheski \nDirector\, Oral History Master of Arts Program (Columbia University) \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTRATION \n\nThis is a hybrid event.\nRegister in person with this link\n\nRegister for zoom with this link \n\nLOCATION \nIn-person at the 4TH SPACE\, Concordia University\, 1400 de Maisonneuve Blvd. West\, J.W. McConnell Building (Library Building). \nCOHDS/ALLAB is located on unceded Kanien’kehá:ka territory\, in Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal.
