Multimedia
September 15 2015: Hearing Voices 2.1 is now available for both Windows and Macintosh (OS X). Hearing Voices, by John Wynne and Robert Munro, is a free interactive multimedia app that features the highly endangered Khoi and San languages of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana and Namibia. John Wynne recorded songs, speakers' personal accounts and interviews in 2003 in collaboration with 8 speakers of 5 Khoi/San languages, visual artist Denise Hawrysio and linguist Andy Chebanne. The app features high quality recordings that capture the extraordinary sounds of these ‘click’ languages. It also presents detailed information about the speakers and their lifestyles, their languages, and language endangerment in general.
This new, enhanced version has improved navigation, audio controls, installation, and includes corrections and updates. For further information, and to download the app, go to the Hearing Voices page.
