What does /mu/ think of the Voyager Golden Record?
>>
>>51179084
Is it true that there is an Esperanto sample on it?
>>
>>51179084
based sagan
>>
>>51179084
Poética, but useless. Shits gonna get destroyed before anything with half our intelligence find it.
>>
>>51179358
*poetic
Fucking autocorrect
>>
Where can I get a download of this?
>>
>>51179084
sucks as hell
>>
>>51179334
lel, bet you're feeling real euphoric right now, aren't you? Hey? Hey? *tips fedora*

It's pretty cool and some tracks are very interesting, like the sound collage.

>>51179320
Yes

>>51181427
I don't know if you are being sarcastic, post-ironic or sincere, but this should stop.

Cute, but a complete waste of money. Typical Amerifats.
>>
"The copyright owners for the images and music on the actual record signed agreements which only permitted the replay of their works outside the solar system."

Brilliant

I think they actually made some really great choices

Louis Armstrong (early best Louis too), Chuck Berry (should've been roll over beethoven but so what) & Blind Willie Johnson.
>>
Pleb-tier shit. It's no wonder the aliens haven't contacted us back yet.
>>
It always cracks me up thinking of aliens seeing this and just saying "ah yes! this obviously makes sound yes this will be nice"
They might eat it, who knows
>>
The ayyliens are gonna play it at the wrong speed and think that we're all slow-motion whale-people
>>
>thinking that even if an intelligent alien found it that their audio playback technology would be the same as ours
they should have sent some visual art instead. no technology required. except eyes...
>>
>>51184268
That's the funniest thing I've seen you say
>>
>>51184274
>doesn't come with instructions on how to play it
>>
>>51184375
does it?
>>
>>51184274

the record is etched with how to play it
>>
>>51184399
oh ok. I pictured it just being the record without a turntable or anything.
>>
>>51179084
my favourite Boards of Canada release

99% sure it had visual arts of how humans look and what galaxy / solar system / planet we live on too.
>>
>>51184442
Imagine a Twilight Zone episode where the golden record flies back to a post-apocalyptic Earth where some primitive tribe of future people worship the etchings as the gospel of some race of space gods.
>>
>>51184473
that's on the pioneer plaque
>>
>>51179358
Destroyed by what?
It's fucking space.
Do you have any idea how fucking vast that shit is?
>>
>>51179358
Autocorrect made you sound pretentious

this is on there and it is one of the most beautiful songs i ever heard


blind willie johnson is underrated and forgotten today

>>51184562
Probably not man, space is really empty. Voyager is still operational and the record is probably fine. Super low odds of hitting anything substantial in space
>>
>>51184547

No it isn't
>>
>>51184442
This shit is ridiculous.
>oh here what a sound wave looks like!
>here's this arbitrary numbering system we made up
>here's where you have to write a cutoff raster filter in order to read the analog data!
>here's a square!
>there's absolutely no fucking reason why you would assume this gold disc contains image data at all, but hey, Carl Fucking Sagan suggested it so it might be cool.
>Here's where earth is so you can come vaporize us
>and here's the answer key to that dumbass numbering system!
>it's hydrogen, but you have no fucking way of knowing that!!

What a fucking waste.
The album itself is great tho.

What a fucking waste.

this means piratebay can buy a spaceship that takes you ousite of the solar system and them you will be abllowed to listen to musi for free?
>>
>>51184810
Micro dust. Over thousands of years, it'll really wear on the record and it probably won't be playable after a certain amount of time.
>>
>>51187001
The record's in a case >>51184442, it's not just floating around in space.
>>
>>51185008
