Found on the Elevator 205 W. 57 2-11-69 (Side 2)

Wil Wheaton

I came across this forever ago on a BBS somewhere. I spent a LONG time tracking down a copy of the original record, which I encoded using Audacity and my turntable. Here's the description from Discogs: This recording is an "unauthorized experiment" that was made in the year 2058 C.D.S. (Carbon Dating System), a "blue verbal data feed" sent backwards in time to "retro A.D." by Decker, T. L., index J-3, CMR 00965 of T-Group Roaring Vectors 252, a human cyborg who suffers from a malfunctioning number nine electrode in his head which causes him to have an emotional breakdown as he records this message. It's a secret message to a past world he has trouble imagining, a world of foreign substances like metal, plastic, animals, soldiers... a world all physical and "impossibly slow." An 8½" 20RPM disc containing this recording was found on the elevator at 205 W. 57th Street in New York City on February 11, 1969. The recording, approximately 24 minutes in length, has been reproduced on this 10" record, in stickered blank sleeve with blue insert.
