Opening reception • 2-4 pm NEW HOURS!!! • October 11th
The Waypost • 3120 N Williams Ave Portland, OR

In late 2008 I began recording the location-based memories of Portlanders, and weaving them into free, interactive audio tours.

The results are over eight hours of memories. It was a lot of work, but I had help along the way and I want to thank the wonderful people who helped me:

Johnny Toadvine, Karl Hugo, Mia Armstrong, and Nancy Wong, JD Harman, Lena Munday, and of course all my friends and family that put up with my kvetching.

I also want to thank the musicians who graciously lent their music to the project. These are musicians I specifically sought out for this project, and their generosity is a testament to the strength of Portland’s creative community.
These artists include:

Starfucker, Menomena, the Blow, Talkdemonic, YACHT, The Shaky Hands, A Weather, Parenthetical Girls, Dragging an Ox Through Water, Copy, Living Proof, Ah Holly Family, Laura Gibson, Ethan Rose, Y La Bamba, Holcombe Waller, the Blue Horns, Grouper, Root Beer and French Fry, Shelby Sifers, The Old Believers, Death Songs, Sexton Blake, Southerly, Saw Whet, Loch Lamond, Portland Cello Project, The Morals, and more.

Most of all, I want to thank the brave people who sat down with me to share their stories. It was a blessing to hear so many different people’s stories: wealthy and homeless, black and white, young and old.

I encourage you to take part in interviewing (listening to) somebody. Through the act of listening, we offer ourselves an opportunity to witness the many unifying characteristics of our shared humanity. It might sound cheesy, but it’s a pretty amazing and powerful thing. Seriamente.

The Neighborhood Diaries project will continue. To anonymously donate a memory yourself, please e-mail me at hoodturkey@gmail.com.

Neighborhood Diaries

Abraham Ingle unveils more of his big, citywide Neighborhood Diaries project, in which he recorded people’s memories of their ’hoods and created a massive podcast walking tour from his finds, at a host of venues in the next month. BYOPMD (bring your own portable music device) to this week’s event and Ingle will upload his latest neighborhood audio tours, for the King/Vernon ’hood, from his laptop. The best part? Ingle convened a host of Portland bands, from Menomena and the Blow to Laura Gibson, to donate music to create a soundtrack to his walkabouts. They’re included on the podcasts. KELLY CLARKE. Together Gallery, 2916 NE Alberta St., . 6 pm. Free.
