The lectures I heard in the British Library taught me a lot about sound. From the first machine that can happen to today’s advanced sound equipment, the development of history has brought us a lot of conveniences, but we should also not forget the “sounds of the past”. They invented better technology through practice, again and again, this kind of spirit is worth learning from me. When listening to the lecture, I can see their current appearance from the music equipment of the past. This feeling is very strange, like time and space overlap. I thought of using tapes to listen to songs when I was a child, but now there are fewer and fewer opportunities for tapes to appear in life. I also saw a lot of vinyl discs and magnetic recordings here, and also learned how to repair magnetic recordings.
This is some equipment outside. My favorite is “Song of the last Kana’l O’o A’a”, where you can hear the chirping of birds. Because of the recording equipment, the sound here is not as clear as it is now, but it is because of this that it becomes very sensible. I think these audios are very meaningful, these audios can bring me into the world of the past.
