Jukebox Project

[Pierpont Oldham]

TheLibrary of Congress presents the National Jukebox, which makes historical sound recordings available to the public free of charge. The Jukebox includes recordings from the extraordinary collections of the Library of Congress National Audio-Visual Conservation Center and other contributing libraries and archives. Recordings in the Jukebox were issued on record labels now owned by Sony Music Entertainment, which has granted the Library of Congress a gratis license to stream acoustical recordings.

At launch, the Jukebox includes more than 10,000 recordings made by the Victor Talking Machine Company between 1901 and 1925. Jukebox content will be increased regularly, with additional Victor recordings and acoustically recorded titles made by other Sony-owned U.S. labels, including Columbia, OKeh, and others.

Pictured here is an acoustic recording session conducted in the era before microphones were utilized for recording. Music andspeech were funneled through recording horns, which in turn vibrated an attached diaphragm and stylus, thus etching the sound waves onto a rotating wax disc.

The National Jukebox is a project of the Library of Congress National Audio-Visual Conservation Center. The goal of the Jukebox is to present to the widest audience possible early commercial sound recordings, offering a broad range of historical and cultural documents as a contribution to education and lifelong learning.

These selections are presented as part of the record of the past. They are historical documents which reflect the language,attitudes, perspectives, and beliefs of different times. The Library of Congress does not endorse the views expressed in these recordings, which may contain content offensive to users.

Jukebox is a storytelling project located at the Cambridge Foundry. It was created by socially-engaged multimedia artist Elisa H. Hamilton in partnership with The Loop Lab and Cambridge Arts. Combined with community-centered programming, it will:

Hello,

I am looking to do a project where I create a jukebox style device, and need some help with the electronics/programming aspect! My idea is to have a circuit where a specific button is pressed and a certain song is played, and there are say 5-10 buttons and each one plays a different song. It should be connected to a speaker and have a volume control ideally also.

You can get an [u]MP3 Shield[/u]. The songs are stored on microSD card that plugs into the MP3 board does all of the "work" of decoding & playing the MP3 file. The Arduino just sends some little codes to tell it which song to play, etc.

In the mid-1980s, the Elmer E. Rasmuson Library became one of the first in the nation to digitize its oral history recordings.The library then shared them across Alaska through computer stations akin to jukeboxes.

The Oral History Program was on the chopping block due to a university budget crisis. Schneider needed an easier way to maintain and share the recordings, so he applied for and received an Apple Library of Tomorrow grant. It provided a computer with special hardware and software that enabled programmers to upload audio, pictures and text, then organize it in a user-friendly way.

As I was walking this project into the office, the first thing people asked me was, "Did you bend that acrylic?" Yep. It's actually not as difficult as it may seem. It requires a heating element strip that can be a little pricey. I believe the one we had at SparkFun was something similar to this.

The process is relatively simple, it involves planning your bend points. Then, you lay the acrylic piece on top of the heating element strip for a few minutes and it starts to get soft. If you hear crackling and see bubbles, then you've heated it too long.

For my enclosure, I opted to have wood sides. It makes for a nice finished look (without any screws or bolts showing). I used a hand router to make some channels where the edge of the bend acrylic would "press" into the side of my wood sides. Some great info on hand routing here.

If you had a CNC machinelike the Shapeoko XXL, you could design the route and get a much cleaner cut. To do it by hand, I layed my bent acrylic on it's side (on top of the wood), traced it, then slowly guided the router along the trace.

In the picture on the left, you can see how my route isn't perfectly straight, but ultimately the small imperfections will not be noticed. After a quick stain on the wood and a couple sprays of poly, the final step is to fill the route with a bead of epoxy and slide the acrylic into place (pictured on right).

I opted to have a removable faceplate, so that I could have better access to the electronics during development and eventually re-purpose this enclosure for various projects. I'm so glad I did, because it worked perfectly for this jukebox project.

A great project. It has been a long time since I have seen such HDL programmes. I came over all misty eyed. I'm not sure I would want to go back to writing VHDL but I did have fun when I was doing it.

This project focused on transforming an inaccessible audio archive of historic North Carolina folk music into a vital, publicly accessible digital archive and museum exhibition. Nearly 97 years ago and into the 1930s, Frank C. Brown, a Duke scholar, began recording North Carolina folk music and archiving it for posterity. Most of those recordings are still housed on glass discs in Rubenstein Library.

The Archive of the Archive: The Ethics of Ownership and Repatriation of Indigenous Field Recordings (presentation by Aaron Fox sponsored by the NC Jukebox project, Duke Forum for Scholars and Publics, April 4, 2016)

The Forum for Scholars and Publics and Kenan Institute for Ethics provided additional support for this project. This project was selected by the Franklin Humanities Institute as a humanities-connected project.

Overall this project is worth your time digging into. It has pieces of so many different times in the country music landscape with influences from other genres while being true to who Jukebox Rehab is.

Citizen DJ is officially open to the public and all sounds on this website are completely free-to-use for your remixing needs. Read a behind-the-scenes retrospective post on this experimental project and residency.

The project is supported by the Czech Centres in Europe and CzechTourism in USA.

We already collaborate with The Poetry Society in the UK, Edinburgh, the City of

literature in Scotland and so on.

We are glad to return to North Moravia. Another place where you can now listen to the poem in the public space is Hlučn. We installed the Poesiomat in cooperation with the local Sport and Culture Organization Hlučn. Among the artists that you can listen to include local poets such as Radek Fridrich, Dan Jedlička, Lenka Daňhelov, Jan Němček, Radek Glabazňa or Irena Štastn.

I have published the code and instructions to github:

GitHub lukx/home-assistant-jukeboxJukebox for Homeassistant using the lovelace-ui. Contribute to lukx/home-assistant-jukebox development by creating an account on GitHub.

A stab in the dark this, could i use this to send the radio URLs to a Yamaha Musiccast device? They show as media players within HA. Not sure how the yamaha devices operate as i havent played with them properly yet.

The three tiered Cannery History Project is a collaboration between Alaska Association for Historic Preservation, Tundra Vision, Sea Level Consulting, SteelBird Productions, LaRece Construction, and Trident Seafoods to collect, share, and preserve the stories of the diverse, and often invisible, cannery workers whose activities are reflected by and embedded in the industrial landscape contained within the 128-year-old Cannery at South Naknek, Alaska.

Postmodern Jukebox (PMJ), also known as Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox, is a rotating musical collective founded by New York based pianist Scott Bradlee in 2011. Postmodern Jukebox is known for reworking popular modern music into different vintage genres, especially early 20th century forms such as swing and jazz. They have toured North America, Europe, and Australia; often simultaneously due to the extensive discography and the numerous artists and performers involved in the project. Postmodern Jukebox has amassed over 1.9 billion YouTube views and 5.8 million YouTube subscribers since its introduction in 2011.[1]

Each week, Postmodern Jukebox releases a new video on YouTube. Although originally most were filmed casually in Bradlee's apartment living room, sets became more elaborate over time. The band has covered songs by artists ranging from Lady Gaga and the Strokes to Katy Perry and the White Stripes. Since their beginnings as a small group of friends making music in a basement in Queens, New York, Postmodern Jukebox has gone on to feature 70 different performers and tour six continents.[2]
