I am having serious blog envy!
Robert Hall has been showcasing speech synthesis hooked to Flash for a while on his Flash site, but now he has put together a nice little application for his regular weblog.
You can now hear parts of his weblog entries via Flash.
Still miss some in depth information about how he has done it. Would have been nice to get to look into the gut of the sound beast ;-)
[Update]
Ok, found his presentation of the project at FlashForward 2001 in NYC: Ideas To Realities, Threads To Objects. Found the link thanks to Google and FFNYC Links
fyi, robert presented an older version at flashforward nyc last year, so you might be able to find the slides for the presentaion on his site.
You know what? I should have been to that session :-) I can’t imagine what better thing I had to do right then. Hmmff.
I found the link to his presentation by way of FFNYC Links (http://www.insite.net/ff/) (too bad nobody followed up that idea btw) – And the link to the presentation is: http://www.mcom8.com/2001/texttospeech/
