theater tour/ long live analog

the tour of the theater friday was an enlightening one. before the tour i was completely unaware that the sound of the film wasn't actually on the film itself. it was interesting that each film has a set of cd's that have the sound/soundtrack on them. the synching of the sound completely amazes and boggles me. it's beyond my ability to comprehend how some simple binary can synch with cds to create an entire product/experience. i guess that this is the solution for the problem with the soundtrack being destroyed with handling and use. this is also probably a product of the digital age. with all the audio becoming digital, film is just following suit with the trends. but being a fan of analog myself i would love to see film return to the analog sound. i feel like analog just has more of a connection to the real sound, since it's not broken down into samples that replicate the actual wave of the sound. digital sound just seems a little crispy to me. although most of the music i own is digital i have recently discovered the "warmth" of analog through my collecting of vinyl. i've actually started buying albums i already own on vinyl, just because i prefer to listen to vinyl. now if only they could create a portable vinly player.
