Sound is history and sound is memory. The over 25,000 recordings housed in the Smithsonian Folkways Archive in Washington, DC bear witness to this. There you can listen to the ring of the almost-extinct rotary dial phone. Hear a 1901 recording of President William McKinley delivering a speech, moments before his assassination. Relax to the songs of North American Tree Frogs, most of which are now extinct.
