In our first segment, "Vox Fabri, Vox Dea," Ames remixes the responses of 45 participants of the Tenth Biennial Feminisms and Rhetorics Conference. Organized around patterns of answers to two questions--"What's your favorite FemRhet moment?" and "What's you're way of making? This vox populi piece makes clear the magic and magnificence of this conference, one celebrating twenty years.
Our second segment recounts a local "microcasting" experiment produced at Columbia College Chicago's Parents Weekend. Ames and Trauman organized a participatory "making" session in which students and parents recorded different portions of a common audio text, which were then immediately combined into a short podcast for the participants to listen to and to take with them. Although the session didn't run perfectly, it was a fascinating (and largely successful) experiment engaging an audience as co-producers of a real-time microcasting.
