Never talk to strangers

Posted by East MobileBooth on March 3, 2007, from Richmond, Virginia


The Richmond Public Library currently is host to "Parle moi je t’Ècoute," an interactive audio installation by Sami Ben Larbi. Four booths with only one side for seating are lined up so that no booth faces another. Library-goers can talk together with relative anonymity. It’s one part confessional, one part StoryCorps, and one part performance art.
