Archaeology of Children’s Memories

Archaeology of Children’s Memories is “a view” of a childhood, maybe just like the one we experienced long time ago. Childhood is given as a fantasy, reverie with sound images of children’s world, presented through the study of expressive qualities of a child’s voice. Memories arise from the period (of development) of articulated vocal expression of the girl named Julia (her speech, babbling, humming). Stages of childhood reveries are combined with contemplations - “archaeological” findings - about the territory of childhood, which are pronounced by the narrator (author). These fragments of text were written for the purpose of theoretical research the author had conducted before she commenced work on the radio project Archaeology of Children’s Memories.
