Perhaps what the instrument produces isn't so much new sounds as access to new (machinic) modes of listening. Each recording a different exemplification of machine listening.

| You never really know what speech interfaces, like Siri, hear, or how. The Word Processor shows ASR at work. By appropriating methods from speech-to-text and ASR as parameters for text and audio composition and experimentation, the Word Processor is a means to ‘lift the hood’ or ‘open the black box’ of otherwise opaque but ubiquitous technology. Here, machine listenings, mishearings and nonhearings become material for making and knowing. | You never really know what speech interfaces, like Siri, hear, or how.
