My Grandmother’s Lingo is a voice-activated interactive animation published by SBS that tells the story of a young Aboriginal woman fighting to preserve the critically endangered Marra Indigenous language. The experience lasts roughly 10 minutes, with each Marra word a user learns unlocking a new chapter of the narrative. Full functionality requires microphone access and is optimized for desktop use on Chrome or Firefox browsers. The project notes a language is lost globally every two weeks, and over 90% of Australia’s Indigenous languages are critically endangered.
