6,500-year-old voices recorded in pottery (just a hoax)
Literal [MAKE:blog]
THE RAW FEED has a post about audio that was recorded in pottery – «Belgian researchers have been able to use computer scans of the grooves in 6,500-year-old pottery to extract sounds — including talking and laughter — made by the vibrations of the tools used to make the pottery.» [via] Link (the site and video is in French). Turns out, it’s not true – MAKE reader danman_d says «This site – «Poisson d’avril de journal televise», translates to: «April fools newscast».
Thank you!
