[OSList] conversation & listening in Pittsburgh

[Alan Stewart]

G'day Tricia and All

This may be of interest and value for your bold initiative and purposes.

Colleagues and I are working up a project inspired by the Free Listening
Project   https://urbanconfessional.org/#listen-quote
https://www.sidewalktalksf.com/
<https://www.sidewalktalksf.com/>
https://urbanconfessional.org/
<https://urbanconfessional.org/>

We have the idea of doing this, with student volunteers to do the
listening, in the Adelaide Central Market
<https://adelaidecentralmarket.com.au/>.  In 'nooks' during trading hours.

This complements *Conversare <http://www.conversare.net> *events (see* here*
<http://conversare.net/introducing-conversare/> for a description) which
happen there on weekday nights. When there is nobody else present as the
Market is only open for trading on Friday nights.

Wondering if these initiatives touch a chord in readers?

With good wishes for your initiative.

Go well
