    Why not save yourself a lot of time and ‘record what you hear’ from soundcard? (Files to download: Audio editor/recorder. Equipment needed: Your dumb(alternatively, awesome) computer)

  2. Matthew says:

    Cos that would have taken one hour rather than twelve minutes and I would have had to turn off Outlook to avoid getting miscellaneous beeps included. Plus I learned a new skillz.

  3. Sambo says:

    You have outlook sounds on? Eep.

    I dunno how much audio one would want to extract from a dvd though.

  4. Hans says:

    re time lapse text: Plant trees. Not boring pines as a cynical crop in twenty years time, plant natives, plant beautiful exotics, oaks, walnuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts, flowering cherries, apples, pears, citrus, olives, Kauri, Totara, Miro, Matai, Kahikatea etc.

    I THINK that I shall never see
    A poem lovely as a tree.

    A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
    Against the sweet earth’s flowing breast;

    A tree that looks at God all day,
    And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

    A tree that may in summer wear
    A nest of robins in her hair;

    Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
    Who intimately lives with rain.

    Poems are made by fools like me,
    But only God can make a tree.

  5. Matthew says:

    List & lyric are lovely.

  6. Sambo says:

    This cynical crop business. It makes up a portion of my inheritance.

    Its weird to know my family owns a few forests.
