We’d like you to post audio files on this website. These posts can either be audio comments on individual blog entries, or creative audio contributions to the project.

To add your audio to Flight Paths, either

1. upload your files to a website such as MediaMax and Switchpod (both are free), then copy the code that these sites provide into a comment box on Flight Paths (click the symbol beside any paragraph, or any of the paragraph links on the right)

2. If you aren’t equipped to make audio recordings yourself, you can leave audio messages directly from your phone, using Audioboo.fm for free (if you have an iPhone), or Phoneboo from any telephone for the cost of a normal UK call.

Here’s another link to the ambient sound in the carpark, including a plane overhead, a train, and some weirdly electronic sounding birds.

Chris on paragraph 6:

Trying out the Filedropper service – this is the embedded code it gives you after you upload a file. Seems pretty good!

Chris on paragraph 6:

Only issue might be that according to their site ‘files are kept forever as long as they are being downloaded.’ So any files uploaded to Flight Paths this way should be backed up elsewhere just in case – which is probably wise anyway.
