THE WAVE IN THE MIND. SECONDARY ORALITY
PODCAST
Az Irratia kicks off this quarter’s programme with "The Wave in the Mind. Secondary orality", 5 letters comprising the proposal The Wave in the Mind which Isabel de Naverán is carrying out as an Azkuna Zentroa associated researcher.
In podcast format, De Naverán’s exchanges with 4 guests (Lorea Alfaro, María García Ruiz, Raquel G. Ibáñez & Andrea Soto Calderón) appear as “secondary orality”, a term coined by Walter J. Ong to refer to how oral communication is currently mediated via electronic devices, voice messages or audio notes; i.e. a kind of epistolary relationship where voice and sound are the materiality.
