Echos in the night
Have you ever heard the music for the circumcision ritual of the African Jola tribe? The soundscape of the Jungle Mynas in India? An interview with Max Perutz, nobel prize winner in 1962 for work on the structure of hemoglobin? Mapped dialects from across Britain? Discussions on architecture, film, fashion, gender studies, history, philosophy, science and visual arts?
The British Library has just released over 23,000 recordings from its library for free download. It’s worth a browse.
