Critical Prototypes : spoken paper

This was another experiment in a different format. I wondered if you could have the paper read out to you as a kind of on demand radio. This way all consumers of the newspaper would experience it at the same time. I input the content created that I would have printed into a text-to-speach program. This was strange as the voice was very mechanised. If you listen to the end of this utube you will see that the bullitins and normal news stories are almost gibberish, but the blogpost read at the end was good because the use of language was more like the spoken word.
