Sound Capture for Human / Machine Interfaces Book

In this book you learn how important it is to speak language rather than mumble it. For example, if I said to you: "Hum ma num ma mum pa lo ma oh," you would take me for a lunatic. If I said: "Hello there, my name is Greg. My role in this narrative is vital," you would understand me. Of course, you can't translate spoken language, you need to write it down and then translate it, so this title is silly and misleading. Apart from these criticisms, I believe this might be the most important academic text since Lydia Barthes's On the Importance of Crushing Harold's Balls in a Vice.
