if walls could talk. a memoir of an asylum, a home and an identity

All walls know something about us that we do not...and this may surprise you. Our enemies, who gaze at us from across the city, from the sea and from across the airwaves know our actions before we even make them. Distant stars are not so very far away after all. Our words are whispered everywhere - in coffee shops and lockers, on television shows and sports pages. You may be surprised to learn who knows what about you and what they would be willing to tell us if they dared

Everywhere you look, there is a chance of being seen. Someone - whether at home or at work, in your neighborhood or on the other side of the world - could be looking at you right now. Is he aware of what you are doing? Is there always someone watching and listening to you? Are people constantly telling us about your actions without your permission?

You're in a crowded coffee shop. Back in the corner, a couple is huddled over a laptop. They're peering into your life even as you order that cappuccino. Did you know your life is an open book? Thousands of eyes are watching your moves, from wherever you are, from wherever you go. And those eyes sell...

In a world that is becoming increasingly connected, privacy and security have become increasingly important. Walls have ears: hospitals talk to their doctors, supermarkets know what we buy, airplanes hear us whisper. What happens when our enemies are the ones who hold all the information?

Your actions are not limited to your own mind. You are embedded in a system of data that can read you like a book. The things we say and do become a part of the larger picture. Any statements we make, any movements we make, any purchases we make become data for observation.

We build walls to separate us. They separate us from our freedom, our families, and even during times of success we can fall prey to them. if Walls could talk is a poem based on 5 lines that tell the story of what each individual would say if they could talk about their walls.

In an effort to help your walls relax and fall asleep, I’ve created a calming program that will ensure they get the rest they need.

The walls are empty and lonely. What is behind them? Come, open the door and find out what they have to say.

We challenge you to learn five things about walls. And then let’s have a chat about it in the comments below!

The walls in your home hold all kinds of interesting stories. Whether you’re a collector of them or just curious about the stories, here are some fun facts about the walls around you.

A young woman discovers her father's memoirs and finds herself under the spell of his tragic, enigmatic story.

If walls could talk, what kind of tales would they tell? We hear about tragedies and secrets in our homes every day. This is real life for our homeowners: The things going on around them that we don't see.

Hidden from sight, the things that go on behind closed doors can tell us more about a person than we ever thought possible. We offer home monitoring for security and peace of mind.

There is always more to a story. There's what happened and there's how it affected the people involved. It's this duality that is most important in the review process. It's our job to let you know what really happened and how your homeowners are working to make their communities better places to live.

This is the first part of a documentary series following two different families: one that lives in the home and another family who are looking to rent it out.

What really happens in our homes? Things that even the most observant visitor wouldn't notice.

Walls don't just hold up a roof — they tell long stories. If walls could talk, what tales could you imagine learning from them?

Where would we be? Nowhere. Because the walls can talk, and they're telling everyone that, beyond all odds, they've been designed and built by M&M Construction.

We help our homeowners by providing an informative and detailed inspection report that outlines any areas of concern. By providing this information, we hope to prevent serious damage to homes in the future.

This is a story about two very different people and how their lives intersected. In a way, it’s also about how we connect with each other and our environment, even if it appears on the outside that there is nothing in common between us.

Nothing can bring you closer to the person you love like a conversation. And nothing is more intimate than sitting down with a room full of your friends, family members and loved ones.

Walls can speak. Walls can tell stories. How Was Your Day? From the day she married our country, Michelle has always brought a dynamic energy to the White House and we know she will continue to be an inspiration to people everywhere.

Walls can speak. Walls can tell stories.

Listen to the stories they have to tell.
