Would you like to try our new video/audio player ? (beta!)

Audio is recorded and reconstructed (edited) into 3-5 min Vignettes. The careful listener will note that people do not really talk like this. However, done well and made to sound natural, we imagine that people do talk like this and that is what I'm going for. ...... From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vignette [which has no Vignette (audio) definition yet ] Vignette (literature), short, impressionistic scenes that focus on one moment or give a particular insight into a character, idea, or setting....... In making these cuts, there are no guideposts. What is an accurate quote? Is a verbatim transcription accurate when it looses the connection to tone and cadence? Evidently a transcription is considered a valid transposition of live words into the storage medium of text because that is how Congressional hearings work....... Here, the core idea, contained in the often wandering nature of live speech is extracted, rearranged and adjusted as necessary. The words, tonality and cadence of the source are the clay that is used to produce a natural sounding vignette packed with information.
