Unalaska Communities of Memory Project Jukebox

The Alaska Communities of Memory Project was a statewide effort from 1994-1996 funded by the Alaska Humanities Forum to provide an opportunity for people in communities around Alaska to share memories of their community and to reflect on what made their community special.

This Jukebox, also funded by the Alaska Humanities Forum, highlights some of the storytelling from Unalaska, Alaska in April 1996. Go to the Interviews page to listen to some of those stories.

This 2009 Jukebox program offers a new approach to oral history by offering simultaneous access to video, transcriptions and photographs linked through a table of contents. This is possible through the use of a specialized software called Testimony Software which was developed by Dr. Bob Jansen of the Australian Centre for Oral History.
