The Binary Circumstance

Julie Leung points to a site called Voices of Bainbridge Island that features recorded events and interviews related to island life.

Quoted from the “about” page:

Voices of Bainbridge Island (VOBIS) is an adventure into sound and Internet. It is intended to bring verbal information of interest to the community of Bainbridge Island about ourselves, to share with the world what is Bainbridge and the words spoken by others in the world that are of interest to us.

I was able to listen to portion of three interviews and noticed a large variance in sound quality, some too loud another too soft. A couple of links didn’t work, which may have just been a temporary server error.

It’s a wonderful idea, however. Listening to the actual voices of individuals speaking about their ideas is far more intimate and informative than just reading quoted words on a page or a web site.

Philippe Boucher is the interviewer. Great French name and a wonderful accent to go with it.

Check it out. I expect we’ll be seeing many more sites like this in the future.

You won’t be seeing any other sites just like The Binary Circumstance Online Store, though.
