[QUOTE="Requiem, post: 2371128, member: 11044"]Slides were a common way to share awesome pictures and tell a story. But they are mute... obviously. Unless when combined with a cassette tape that narrates the story through music and voice, signalling when to project the next breathtaking view of space. For some time now I have been wanting to bring these embodiments of humble 60's to 80's entertainment into the more easily accessible digital domain. It's rather simple: Scan the slides in high resolution, restore them, digitize the cassette with a good quality cassette recorder, restore if needed. Synchronize the two inertly separated mediums in a video editing program and voila! I've ordered one to try out as a proof-of-concept. To see if it works. If anybody would be willing to loan theirs, I will put the end product on YouTube and return the material and high quality scans, audio file and video file.
