special stereo/mono effect metapher - CLICK for EXPLAINATION
 
- If there are any problems with streaming audio (interrupted play etc.), use the next smaller version or best the download option.      
- You dont need to have ISDN to download the ISDN Stereo Version. But with a 28.8 Modem the song will be interrupted every 20 seconds because Real Audio needs more time to download and buffer the information to continue playing. It is recommended to use the 28.8Mono file to prelisten and download the best quality file then to your disk. More help? Click on 'help' on the right. Do not worry when you have only a 14.4 modem. Use the download  option. Your modem limit affects only what you can listen as 'streaming' audio (listen while loading). Once the file is downloaded completely to your disk, you can listen to any version.

special stereo/mono effect metapher - EXPLAINATION
 
READ THIS FIRST! Click on the 'download' links above WITH YOUR RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON and select 'Save link as'. After you have downloaded the file, start it manually from your disk whenever you want.
Explanaition: When you click on the link with your left mouse button instead, your browser will download the file (for example 'internet-song-mono.ra') and write it into your c:\windows\temp directory(=folder) (the Microsoft Internet Explorer uses 'c\windows\temporary internet files').Your RealAudio Player should start automatically here and play the song. But the file will get deleted again automatically when you close the applications.
(The only help here: Find it in that temp directory and copy it to some other place on your disk before you close the Real Audio Player or Netscape)
-other  Versions:   For different file formats and better sound versions please make contact 
You can download any version unregarding your connection. Once the file is on your disk, your Real Audio player can play all formats. It is recommend to use the 28.8Mono file to prelisten and download the best available Sound Level D (=DualISDN)  file to your disk.   
If this does not work or you cannot keep the file, please make contact. It will be send to you by e-mail.

the internet song 
(the missing link: overloaded, overloaded, overloaded with dreams and sense that you find when you don't know sofas) 
 
** 
  • metaphor 1: a special stereo/mono effect in the audio files (best with headphones) (the effect does not show in the 28.8. mono version!)
    • in the original recording this effect is very strong. In the Real Audio versions unfortunately it loses a lot:
    • Select Stereo and you will be right inside in the head of the person speaking/dreaming. 
    • Select Mono and you will see the person speaking from outside. All he/she adds to what is happening in his or her head seems strange to you. Maybe in front of his/her computer. Or under his or her headphnes.  Let your imagination work it out. 
    • This is one of the reasons why ** is planning  a mp3 version, to have this effect better
  • metaphor 2  click to watch this free dream ad - not available yet 
  • overloaded, the missing link, la lune trouvé, la lueur et la clarté, chairs, sofas, active light and passive light, dictatorship, information, and censorship, more later...

How does RealAudio work and what is the required equipment?  

Software requirements: The software you need to play this file is the Real Audio Player or Real Media Player. The required version is 3.0 or higher. The most recent version is 5.0. This player is a recommended Plug In for your Netscape Browser or Internet Browser and is used all over the world to compress audio files. This is necessary because an uncompressed file (that features better quality of cause) for a 4:15 stereo song is about 45 MB. The Real Audio file in Mono only 0.5 MB. It would take you more than 3 hours to download the original file (and only  if no error occurs). A reduced RealAudio file depending on the grade of the compression is sized only 260 KB to 2,4 MB. But it has to be remarked that the size of the file determines the quality of the sound. It reaches from about AM-quality to something near HIFI Stereo.  
 So if you don't have the Real Audio Player yet, download your Real Audio Player now.   

Hardware requirements: A basic sound card or audio card like Soundblaster16 is a sufficient device in combination with speakers, headphones or a cable to your HIFI Amplifier. If you can play any other sound files you will be able to play this one as well.

Troubleshooting   

1) weird data or only the text "pnm://www.rz.uni-frankfurt.de/..." is displayed by your browser? Check if RealAudio Player or (RealMedia Player) is installed at all. If yes, check your browsers (Netscape/Microsoft Internet Explorer) options/preferences: files with the extensions "*.ra", "*.ram", "*.rm" should be started/handeled by the RealAudio Player.   

2) option 'Listen to ...': It can happen Netscape (or the Internet-Explorer) does not start the RealAudio Player but offers to save the file to disk instead. Then you should save the file to disk with the extension "*.ra", "*.rm" or "*.ram" and start it from your Windows-Explorer. Another possibility is: Check on Options/Preferences of your browser, change file handling for those extensions from save to disk to open with RealAudio Player.  

x) A general alternative to starting the file by the browser is to start the Real Audio Player from your Desktop or your Windows-Explorer before downloading and Open the URL of the song: In this example it means Open URL: <TAKE ADRESS FROM DOWNLOAD SECTION. YOU CAN READ IT IN THE STATUS LINE WHEN YOUR MOUSE IS OVER THE LINK>. This option also allows you to influence the buffer management: It depends on how your presettings in "View""Preferences""General""Buffer" are set, whether your PC starts to play immediately or after a certain time of downloading. The right presetting depends on how fast the Internet access is. If the song is interrupted while playing you will have to increase the buffer value. Anyway you can prelisten with a small buffer value, then wait until the complete song is downloaded and listen again. This buffer management makes it possible to download ISDN-files as well with a 28.8 modem. It only takes a little longer until the song can be listened to in full length.  

y) A further explaination: For each soundfile two RealAudio files exist: The first has the extension "*.ra". This is the real sound file to get played by the RealAudio player. The other file has the extension "*.ram". This file only delivers non-audio information your RealAudio player needs in case the first file has not been (temporarily) stored on your hard disk.  

z) Any problems that are different? This service will only be improved by your help. Tell the problem and best give information on RealAudio version, browser version and operating system. mail here
