David Giovannoni Of FirstSounds.Org 127th AES

That Thomas Edison fellow sure gets alot of hype. It's common knowledge that he invented the phonograph, thereby laying the foundation for the modern recording industry as we know it, but he wasn't the first to create recordings of audio. David Giovannoni is a member of the FirstSounds.Org group, an archiving endeavor that specializes in finding, logging, and sharing pre-phonograph recordings of audio.

We caught up with David at the 127th AES convention in New York, where he told us about recordings made in France in the 1850's using "smoked paper." The French were way ahead of the Beatles on that one.
