The Sonic Memorial Project: "Much has been said of the horrifying photos and video of the World Trade Center on September 11. For five years now, The Sonic Memorial Project has been constructing a portrait of the towers and that day —one that leaves the pictures behind.
As much a celebration of the twin towers' life as their dreadful demise, this audio project commemorates the buildings and the people who built them, worked in them, lived in their shadows, and gingerly walked a tightrope between them.
Voice mail messages, Windows on the World piano, and the daily creak of the towers in the wind mingle with memories from victims' families, tour-guide operators, boat captains, landfill workers, and tourists.
Dip into the open archive for the most recent recordings (and consider adding your own). But don't miss the audio installation for the diverse collection of sounds that comprise a more complex image of those buildings than any photograph could ever offer." via Yahoo! Picks
