Extracting Audio From Pictures (Summary) « media preservation
sound media historian Patrick Feaster has developed a method for
extracting sound from these prints, bringing to life rare audio content
thought lost to history. Feaster, who works for the campus Media
Preservation Initiative, discovered one such print in an 1890 German
periodical housed in the stacks at Indiana University Bloomington’s
Wells Library. It represents the oldest gramophone-type recording
available anywhere for listening today — the earliest audible ancestor
of all of the world’s vintage vinyl.
