Description from the project page:

»Conserve the sound« is an online museum for vanishing and endangered sounds. The sound of a dial telephone, a walkman, a analog typewriter, a pay phone, a 56k modem, a nuclear power plant or even a cell phone keypad are partially already gone or are about to disappear from our daily life.

Accompanying the archive people are interviewed and give an insight in to the world of disappearing sounds.

»Conserve the sound« is a project from CHUNDERKSEN and is funded by the Film & Medienstiftung NRW, Germany.

I love the idea since there are so many sounds you can´t personally recreate and you won´t find them on the internet as well.

On the other side it can help bring memories back for loved ones, who sadly have alzheimer´s or something alike.
