In this day and age when we are all bombarded with images and imagery telling what to look at, what to look like and what it should look like, we forget that audio has always been the chief communication tool. Sure, movies and film brought the action to the masses, but it was the "talkies" that changed the way movie goers enjoyed these films.
This link has nothing to do with movies, but rather, they are .wav files that are taped from various sources and hosted for you enjoyment. They have archives dating back to 1999, which is when I first discovered the site and started enjoying the clips. You will find some especially hard clips from shows or movies long past.
Why is this special? Well, I find that listening to some audio files helps to conjure up happy times from the past. Marvin the Martian gives me that feeling of sitting with a large bowl of cereal, in my basement, on a Saturday morning to watch all the major cartoons. Do you remember ? Captain Caveman? The Justice League fo America? Snagglepuss? (Might as well check out the rest of 80's Classic TV as I am an 80's child for sure.)
Audio allows the imagination to form the images in our brains; typically, a lot more vivid than any HD TV could ever hope to accomplish. Technology is great, but it will never replace good old fashioned power.
Enjoy the Daily .WAV! Ciao.
