34. AppleTalk : I am Sitting in a Room Demo & Performance with iPhone and QuickTime

One of the characteristics of Lucier's work is that he finds beautiful/strange sounds in an ordinary objects without the use of great technical virtuosity. In this entry, two recording devices (Macbook's QuickTime and iPhone) are used  to along with AppleTalk's text-to-speech feature.
