John Bowers
Edison's Residue

Album UK 2006 on Onoma Research label
Electronic (Abstract, Drone, Experimental)

Extracts of a historical voice recording by Thomas Edison where used as basic material for this soundscapes. The recording was processed and only the noises of the recording medium, a tinfoil coated cylinder and accidently present sounds where used. Dedicated to Charles Cros, whose letter of the 30th April 1877 to the Academy of Sciences in Paris described in detail a mechanism for recording the voice which Thomas Edison never quite got round to building.
