Dialup:
An audio/video piece about memory, nostalgia and modem handshakes.
I would like YOU to record two vocal imitations of the sounds made by dialup modems during the 'handshake' between the users computer and the ISP's server. The first recording should be done cold, from memory, while the second will be made with the you listening to the recording and mimicing what you hear. I only need the two different versions from each person, but if you do different takes please send all of them, the more the better! Lo-Fi is okay, using your computer's built-in mic is fine!
This project is about your subjective perception and memory; there is no right or wrong way to do it.
Play this recording on headphones while making your 'listening' recording:
