This essay utilizes the mythology of Echo, along with the phenomenon of echoes, as a lens for examining past experience and performance. Placing readings of three mythological accounts of Echo alongside autoethnographic reflections complicates understandings of both the myth and experience, while an examination of the phenomenon of echoes suggests an already present way of understanding that can be utilized and nuanced. The examination of experience serves as an application that suggests how the multivalent nature of echoes may be used to approach other performances as artifacts that hold heuristic value in the gaps of their meaning
