Announcing the release of the Windows version of <earshot> 1.0.
<earshot> is free software that creates endless mixes of the web's acoustic
spaces. Type in a URL, or a word or phrase, and <earshot> begins to crawl
through the web by following links between sites, searching for audio files
and streams which the user can play with and manipulate. Found sounds (as
well as files on the local hard disc) can be played by loading them into an
'audio field', which fills the screen. Each sound file is represented as a
rotating stick - by moving the stick around the screen volume and pitch is
changed. A range of keyboard commands apply additional functions including
the muting, reversing, pausing and deleting of sounds.
<earshot> transforms the web into the world's biggest sample library and a
vast sound machine for unique performance and compositional possibilities.
