And the video above is the result. Patrick Liddell, a musician, modeled his experiment on Alvin Lucier’s 1969 composition I Am Sitting in a Room, which did something similar. Liddell says “I regard this activity not so much as a demonstration of a digital fact, but more as a way to eliminate all human qualities my speech and image might have.” Here is his YouTube channel, which contains all 1,000 videos, and below is the original video (via Urlesque).

    That’s pretty cool. I’ve heard the Alvin Lucier composition mentioned, so it was interesting to watch this video.

    That “voice” blared out from my speakers, touched some android-fearing part of my psyche, and scared the hell out of me.

    Interesting. The less human it sounded, the harder I tried to understand what was being said.
