So Many Ways!
Make a Recording (MP3) to Play in Unbound
Volunteer in the Mountain View, CA, Studio
Donate Books (Linen or Hardcover)
Contribute Financially (Every bit helps!)
Contribute a Recording
We need audio recordings of a reading from an original work, a favorite poem, a spoken word piece, or a passage from a favorite book!
Unbound is a visual amalgam of colors, textures and words that brings human creativity alive through spoken word recordings. Sound will quietly emanate, allowing visitors to listen to poetry and original writings from contributors in multiple languages.
If you are interested in contributing a reading to the piece:
Create a MP3 recording that is no longer than 5 minutes, shorter is fine.
Attach the audio file in an email to jnelsongal@gmail.com
Make the Subject in your email: Unbound MP3
In the email, list the following:
Reader’s name
Language you are speaking
Author of the material
Title of the poem, story, novel, et cetera
Feel free to submit original material, fiction, non-fiction, poetry and in any language you choose to add to the diversity of voices in Unbound.
Volunteer in the Studio
We can use wood workers, artisans, creatives, book lovers or any hands looking for something fun to do.
Our studio space in Mountain View, California, accommodates a large number of volunteers inside and outside. We have a 4000sf warehouse space with 16’ high ceilings that facilitates great air circulation. Masks and safe distancing are still required.
We can use wood workers, artisans, creatives, book lovers or any hands looking for something fun to do.
If you would like to volunteer, please go to the contact page and let us know when you are available to work.
Donate Books
We love old linen books of all different sizes, subjects and languages. Damaged ones are fine.
Reach out to us (see contact page) to let us know what you have and coordinate delivery. No need to spend money mailing books as there are so many locally being thrown out.
Contribute Financially
