StoryCorps
StoryCorps is a nationwide initiative to instruct and inspire citizens to record each other's stories in high-quality audio. Participants receive a CD of their recorded interviews while a copy goes to the Library of Congress for a national oral history archive. StoryCorps' flagship booth was launched at Grand Central Terminal in October 2003.
The exterior of the StoryBooth has a motion graphics loop running on three LCD panels to provide dynamic signage.
"Listening Stations" (speakers embedded in the side of the architecture) encourage people to put their ears against the cube for sample stories.
