Sažetak
Preceded by more than forty years of silence, written and recorded testimonies of women prisoners of socialist political labour camps on islands Sveti Grgur and Goli, first started to appear in publications, radio interviews and tv documentaries at the beginning of 1990s. Although understandably not focused explicitly on sound and music, these narratives are nevertheless replete with references to acoustic dimensions of experience of imprisoned life, instances of (mis)use of music (reproduced or performed) within the everyday regimes of torture, as well as rare occasions in which the sound of/or music appeared as an unexpected and at times misplaced symbol of “normal” life lived beyond the island shores. In this presentation I will try to offer a sound-focused reading of this relatively unknown written archive, hoping to contribute to understanding of intricacies of (collective) listening and affective power of voice in the suspended lives of political prisoners confined to the indefinite state of exception in which “logic and praxis blur with each other and a pure violence without logos claims to realize an enunciation without any real reference” (Agamben 2005).
