When words intermingle and each voice tells its story simultaneously, the "Hamhameh" emerges. We find ourselves immersed in the vapors of words, the murmurs of voices, the whirlwind of stories. We lose ourselves in this whirlpool to find the stories. To find the best way to convey a story. We take on new roles in this intimate/public space.

*Persian word meaning tumult, din, clamor. When everyone speaks at once.
