Amazon's Mechanical Turk collects 2088 voices to sing 'Daisy Bell' »



Bicycle Built For 2,000
is comprised of 2,088 voice recordings collected from online workers via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk - a crowdsourcing web service. The Workers were prompted to listen to the tune ‘Daisy Bell’ then record themselves imitating what they heard.  The project is a collaboration between Aaron Koblin & Daniel Massey.

Why Daisy Bell?  It was the song HAL sang at the end of 2001: A Space Odyssey.
