11:06 The Wire - Change of Sound (Part 2 of 8)

The Wire is an multi award winning Canadian Broadcasting Corporation series looking at the impact of electricity on music. It incorporates interviews, music and sound in an innovative way, creating a unique radio experience that's somewhere between a documentary, a remix and a music show.

Electricity refined the way sounds were captured in time - adding a new dimension of fidelity to the acoustic phonograph. The invention of magnetic recording tape represented a quantum leap forward in audio technology. For the first time, thanks to tape, sound could be manipulated. What had been the representation of a singular moment in time became a malleable moment in space. It was the change of the sound. (CBC)
