I'm a college student in SFX, I talk about things such as video games, school projects, and post stuff about movies and video games. Happily Taken <3

Anyone still play Modern Warfare 2 on Xbox 360? Just want to see if anyone is still playing

WATCH: Elijah Wood Is A Secret A-Hole While Driving

technology related sensory memories from my childhood

sliding the metal cover on floppy disks

the slight resistance of inserting cassette and video tapes

ripping off the strips of holed paper off of dot matrix printer paper 

rolling the wheel on a disposable camera to take another photo

[mm-imagerie]

The heaviness and rubber texture of the roller ball in a computer mouse, and the little ring of lint

Unkinking the curly cord of a telephone while you talked

The -peww sound and slowly fading image of a crt monitor turning off, and then running your finger through the static on the dusty glass

The crunch of opening or closing a plastic Disney vhs cover

The sound effects in kidpix

Extending and collapsing metal antennas and using them as magic wands

[makeitagoodoneeh]

Manually rewinding cassette tapes by spinning them around my fingers

Playing with the rubber casing of the buttons on a Walkman–pulling them away, rotating them, slipping them from side to side on the stiff posts of the buttons

The audio and visual static at the end of a videotape

The satisfying thwap-thwap-thwap as you page through a well-filled CD sleeve book

How weird and small and light the first cordless phone felt

[pissyeti]

Feeling the warm smooth sides of our first computer monitor in the early 90s to find the knob to manually adjust the colors on the screen (talk about old school)

The electric whine and hum of the elementary school printers as they processed our print requests and spit out miles of matrix paper

The noise that a VHS tape made when it was being rewound

Flipping the cassette around in our hands until we found the right way for it to fit into the receiver so that it would be accepted and wouldn’t get stuck

The Windows 95 start screen intro noise

Every single sound effect for the kitschy screen savers that we downloaded (haunted mansion, flying toaster, baby dance, underwater, Macarena macaroni, etc)

Holding your CD player just right so it wouldn’t skip and rattle the cd inside

The ka-chunk of the VHS player spitting out the videotape, the registering noise as you pushed it back in

[twofingerswhiskey]

degaussing a computer monitor

the CRT channel changing high-pitched sound

the plastic shifting noise of holding a phone for too long in your hand

the playstation 1 intro noise

the apple ii single-button mouse click noise

flipping through a box of 5″ floppy disks

plugging in A/V cables into the back of a TV set

the click of an old controller joystick as you moved it around

the first digital phone rings that were super muted

the BZZZZZ of an early electric alarm clock

the “fwap” of a flippy alarm clock turning over
