Wow!! Pipe dream or possibility?? ever heard of it?? Archaeo-Acoustics i mean!!.......today is the first time i came across this term and decided to do some research into it!!
By archaeoacoustics I mean the recovery of sounds from the time before the invention of recording. This implies that such sounds would have been recorded inadvertently, while intending to do sometring else. Not much has been written about this subject and only very few experiments have been made, but I find the subject fascinating enough to dare the deep waters of the unproven and often scorned.
This is the clip i came across!!
One story making some news is that a piece of pottery from Pompeii was found to have had sound recordings inadvertently embedded in it during construction. The story is that the potter inadvertently recorded sound as he was applying a steel needle to make concentric rings around the body of the pot.
Belgian researchers have been able to use computer scans of the grooves in 6,500-year-old pottery to extract sounds made by the vibrations of the tools used to make the pottery.
Amazing or what??!
