Max Media

Hi, my name is Max Darham. I am at present the Hearing Voices intern. I am 18 years old and from Bozeman, Montana. I am a freshman at Bennington College and currently participating in the college’s annual Field Work Term. The point is to intregrate your academic learning with real life work experience. In my case it’s working for Barrett and Hearing Voices. I grew up in Bozeman MT skiing, hiking and having fun. I will be producing an audio-slideshow movie, designing photo-journalism web-pages, archiving HV’s online audio collection, and writing several blog-posts over the next few weeks.
