Miss the sound of a Nintendo Gameboy or of dialing up for America Online or the humm of a cathode ray tube? Welcome to
The Museum of Endangered Sounds. In the words of its founder:
"Imagine a world where we never again hear the symphonic startup of a
Windows 95 machine. Imagine generations of children unacquainted with
the chattering of angels lodged deep within the recesses of an old cathode ray tube TV.
And when the entire world has adopted devices with sleek, silent touch
interfaces, where will we turn for the sound of fingers striking QWERTY
keypads? Tell me that. And tell me: Who will play my GameBoy when I'm
gone?"
FYI, I clicked on the thumbnails as prompted which started the videos but w/o sound. ??? dm
