The Henri Chamoux Archeophone

It is because of Mr. Chamoux’s creation that we can preserve musical history, come down to us in the form of cylinders from the good old days. I just had a listen to a few MP3 files published by the good folks at the UCSB Cylinder Preservation and Digitization Project, and I am truly thankful to Mr. Chamoux for building the machine. I am also grateful to UCSB for taking the time to preserve an important part of our heritage. There’s a Wired article on this as well, written by Rachel Metz, which is where I found out about all this wonderful stuff. (Photo courtesy of the Phonograph Makers’ Pages)
