When You Were Little...

Years ago, I bought a Minidisc recorder and a stereo microphone, and I went around recording different sounds: rivers, street musicians, and important events. I also began interviewing people I knew and asking them the same couple of questions.

With Minidisc now in its death throes, I bought a cheap Minidisc player online and salvaged some of the old recordings. I also bought an attachment for my iPod that will allow me to record new material.

In this recording, I asked my coworkers what, as children, they wanted to be when they grew up and, as adults, what they wanted to be.
