From some article:
"The message is contained on a 30-centimeter (12-inch) gold-plated phonograph record. It contains a variety of sounds, 115 images, spoken greetings in 55 languages, printed messages from former President Jimmy Carter and then UN Secretary General, Kurt Waldheim, and a selection of music.
The sounds include wind, rain, surf, a chimpanzee, a Saturn 5 rocket, footsteps, a heartbeat, laughter, and a mother's kiss.
The images range from the structure of DNA to a diagram of continental drift and a violin with sheet music.
The record was assembled by a committee that was headed by the late astronomer, Carl Sagan."

ReplyDeleteI was just trying to post a video on your facebook wall of me lip syncing to "just for now" and I had flowers and unicorns in my hair and everything..but it didn't work..so oh well. It was weird anyways.
I just found this thing..which is probably your gazillionteenth blog..and you keep deleting them.
But anyways, if you don't mind..I'd like to comment on a few of these entries..and I'm sorry if it's annoying but at least it probably makes you feel loved or some shit.
And with this entry...it's one of the best playlists ever. I love just about every one of those songs.
