This piece forms part of Ecolalias (Echolalias), a series of podcasts centred on the paths traced by the voice when it is placed in circulation to become the echo of a body it is inseparable from.


"This voice that breaks; this voice that staggers, or talks back; this voice that dreams from within its own shelter;
this voice, always already elsewhere; this voice that interrupts; this voice - the one that murmurs (are you there?);
a drunken voice; this voice resounding through words of compassion, friendship; this voice to which one must respond;
this voice that may also hurt, or inflict; and which is never so simple, or singular, and yet is only itself;
this self, a plurality - a potential, flushed with longing and distraction; this voice on the way to language: will it arrive?
This voice that one offers; that grows tired, ghosted by the possibility and the madness: this voice that touches the limits of the permissible and the ordered, that breaks in;
this voice that recites, or mimics; which one may recall, as that primary tether; and that enables; this voice that seeks new relations - echoes. To this voice listening turns, and is turned".
