As you walk down Kensington market and Chinatown, have you ever looked up and see a green ear sign that says "murmur" on it? and ever wonder what it is?
[murmur] is project that started in kensington Toronto, its collects personal and histories stories of particular neighborhoods and tells their story in the form of telephone. Basically when someone reached a designated location where one can see a [murmur] sign, and anyone can call the number listed on the sign and listen to the story associated with that place.
In a city where everyone is so caught up doing their own thing, its nice to see people are making an effort to perseve our culture and history... so next time if you walk down spadina take a few second to call [murmur] and you might get inspired!
