Got back from Burning Man about 4am last night. I briefly skimmed the past week or so's lj entries, but I'm sure I missed a lot. But the coolest two things I happened to find both are audio, so it prompted me to make a post all out of audio links.
First, thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
azalynn for posting a link to this really cool online text to speech engine. To quickly demonstrate how cool it is, I made a couple soundbytes by typing in some text and having it read it in various robot voices. My favorite is the Indian-American voice, Anjali.
Also fun is the old woman voice Claire [NSFW], and what I call the "Morpheus" voice, Rich.
Or, if you like, just listen to them one at a time and a couple others here where I put the audio files for now.
Second, here is an audio file I made a while ago of myself reading one of my poems Jeff.L.Jones-Punctuated.Equilibrium.mp3. I wrote this in August of 2004, and I think even posted it to my lj then, but didn't record it until a couple months ago, and I'm so lazy I just now got around to posting it.
And lastly, thanks topatrissimo for calling my attention to Schaffer The Darklord. Attack of the Clonefucker [NSFW] is immediately my new favorite Nerdcore song. Such a sweet song... I don't know how patrissimo finds them, maybe we just have the same sense of humor. Bloodhound Gang is the only artist/band I'm aware of that's capable of constructing lyrics that can make me laugh as hard. Of course, they both make Weird Al look like a total Amateur.
When I get a chance, I guess I'll try and write something about Burning Man. Right now it seems like it's too hard to try and describe.
