PARIS - It’s no-one’s idea of great music — to some, it may sound like a dolphin with tonsilitis — but the ghostly warbling of a French folk song nearly 148 years ago comprises the oldest recording of the human voice, France’s Academy of Sciences says.
The 10-second recording was made by a Parisian inventor, Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville on April 9 1860, when Emperor Napoleon III, the last monarch of France, was on the throne.
It was made a whole 17 years before Thomas Edison made his historic message, “Mary Had a Little Lamb” on a phonograph, which is the landmark event in the history of recorded sound.

Victor Company of Japan Ltd. (JVC) - JVC demonstrated a “handclap & gesture recognition TV” at CEATEC Japan 2007, which opened Oct. 2, 2007.
Users operate it using handclaps and hand gestures. JVC has conducted a research and development of the TV operation using handclaps and gestures since about two years ago, the company said.
In the demonstration, the company operated the TV using its capability to sense the sound of handclaps and the gesture of a hand and fingers. The TV collects the sound of handclaps using the microphone on its top and distinguishes commands based on the timing and number of handclaps.
If you clap hands twice when you are watching TV as normal, for example, volume control and channel icons will be displayed in the center of the screen. As the two icons turn red, you can choose and determine the icon by clapping your hands once while the desired icon is lit. The company devised the sound filter in an effort to prevent the TV from making error operations due to the sound from the TV itself and the surroundings, according to JVC.
The TV detects hand gestures in the video being monitored with its camera and lets the user specify an icon by locating the hand on it and click an icon by bending and extending a finger.
CHICAGO — In the first US trial to challenge the illegal downloading of music on the Internet, a single mother from Minnesota was ordered Thursday to pay more than 220,000 dollars for sharing 24 songs online.
Jammie Thomas, 30, was the first among more than 26,000 people sued by the world’s most powerful recording companies to refuse a settlement after being slapped with a lawsuit by the Recording Industry of America and six major music labels.
She turned down an offer to pay a few thousands dollars in fines and instead took the case to court.
