Sum of Ages
Sum of Ages is a growing audio archive of human experience.
Each episode preserves one person’s voice - speaking in their own words about a lived experience that has shaped how they see the world. Across hundreds of topics, the project gathers stories of loss and happiness, failure and purpose, regret and resilience - without performance or expectation.
The long-term aim is simple and ambitious: to accumulate one million years of lived experience, creating a public library of real voices that can be returned to when guidance, recognition, or quiet company is needed.
Sum of Ages exists as a reminder that whatever we are carrying, someone else has carried something like it before - and chose to speak.
