Book Synopsis Yours Truly, 2095 by : Brian Paone

Download or read book Yours Truly, 2095 written by Brian Paone. This book was released on 2015-06-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it a love triangle if time travel is involved? Jeff Blue made important decisions every day—what clothes to wear, what to eat for breakfast, and what book to teach his high school English class. What he never expected was needing to make a choice between repairing his failing marriage in 1981 or start anew with J0—an unexpected and flawless copy of his wife in 2095. 114 years in the future is nothing like he imagined and waking up there comes with its own list of questions. But while getting back to his time should be at the top of his list, it's hard to resist the new-and-improved version of his wife. J0's a clean slate. A chance to have things just the way he wants, to have things as they were before their daughter’s “accident.” However, staring at J0 reminds him of the woman he left back in 1981, whom he had vowed for better or worse. Armed with a one-way ticket to the moon, it's a race against the clock to seize his last chance to return home to his time. A time without hover cars, Justice Computers, TeleSkins—a time without J0. Is that what he really wants?

Book Synopsis How to Wreck a Nice Beach by : Dave Tompkins

Download or read book How to Wreck a Nice Beach written by Dave Tompkins. This book was released on 2011-11-08. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the vocoder: how popular music hijacked the Pentagon's speech scrambling weapon The vocoder, invented by Bell Labs in 1928, once guarded phones from eavesdroppers during World War II; by the Vietnam War, it was repurposed as a voice-altering tool for musicians, and is now the ubiquitous voice of popular music. In How to Wreck a Nice Beach—from a mis-hearing of the vocoder-rendered phrase “how to recognize speech”—music journalist Dave Tompkins traces the history of electronic voices from Nazi research labs to Stalin’s gulags, from the 1939 World’s Fair to Hiroshima, from artificial larynges to Auto-Tune. We see the vocoder brush up against FDR, JFK, Stanley Kubrick, Stevie Wonder, Neil Young, Kraftwerk, the Cylons, Henry Kissinger, and Winston Churchill, who boomed, when vocoderized on V-E Day, “We must go off!” And now vocoder technology is a cell phone standard, allowing a digital replica of your voice to sound human. From T-Mobile to T-Pain, How to Wreck a Nice Beach is a riveting saga of technology and culture, illuminating the work of some of music’s most provocative innovators.
