I used readplease for txt2speech

The sounds are mostly natural sounds heavily processed, mainly in
soundforge. The pure waveform tones were made with a program I wrote myself
to do realtime synthesis of basic waveforms (sine, square etc.), 4 waves per
channel, I wrote it for one of my colleagues to use in sound therapy but
I've played with it quite a bit myself since writing it....

now there's a performance I'd love to see :-) by the way is that your
friend's real surname...it's very cool broken up ( Sol_le_nte ....see? ;-)
I made a "Fluxus is the best thing since sliced bread" CD (just a master
copy thus far which is a superior audio version(true stereo etc.) to the
one on the web and features the whole process looped for about an
hour..great for fluxus meditation!...when I get some time I will make it
available for those interested via some form of open exchange.
well, almost time to leave my beloved office!
cheers,
Sol.
