How to Listen to Light

Step 9Some captured sound samples

For those of you who asked for them, I captured some sound samples from the light-to-sound project.  These are uncompressed .wav files, sampled at 44 KHz and 16 bits per sample.  Each is roughly 10s in duration. 

I realize downsampling to a lower sampling rate, and/or encoding to a compressed format  (like mp3) would certainly save y'all some space, and download time.  But this might also introduce artifacts into the sound that weren't there in the first place, and I'm trying to be scientific about this, sorta.

This additional step was added on 20 Nov, 2009, about a 1+1/2 years after the bulk of this instructable was published.  Sorry it took so long. I don't have a good excuse for this.
