| [Nettime-bold] Speech synthesis |
If your computer is equipped with sound, I recommend a visit to the latest iteration of the AT&T Bell Labs TTS project, text-to-speech synthesis that just got an upgrade in creepiness: http://www.research.att.com/~mjm/cgi-bin/ttsdemo They claim they will be able to replicate any voice. The pacing is still ridiculous, but the inflections are wonderfully hyperreal. The guy kind of sounds like the actor from Army of Darkness.
