This essay is a responsorial introduction to seven critical reviews of the Voices of the Rainforest project in Bosavi Papua New Guinea. Beginning with a 1991 CD production and growing to an immersive surround sound film, a 2nd edition recomposed CD, and a photobook thirty years later, the project explores collaborative research in and as art practice, and its actual history and future potential as cultural advocacy through media. The responsorial introduction and following papers (from researchers in Papua New Guinea, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and the USA) situate the intermedia work of Voices of the Rainforest in genealogies of research and reflection linking place and memory, voice and agency, nostalgia and affect, sensory history and relationality, ecology and cosmology, and Papua New Guinea history since independence.
