The Museum of Endangered Sounds

By Jack Brummet, Ephemera Editor



This is a cool site with a lot of sounds (and a lot of potential) we don't hear often, or never hear anymore--modems screeching, dot matrix printers, Pac Man, Nintendo Game Boys, rotary dial phones, and more and more.

They have a limited number of sounds right now, but I heard someone on the radio yesterday say that they have a lot more sounds to put up as times goes on.  Definitely worth a look and a listen. . .

Brendan Chilcutt, the alleged site owner, is a nom de plume for the creators, Marybeth Ledesma, Phil Hadad and Greg Elwood, all students in their mid-20s who met at Virginia Commonwealth University’s Brandcenter .

You can visit the museum here.
