The audio recording titled "Stretching of Wire Recorded on March 1, 1990" is a foley or sound effects recording that captures the unique sounds produced when a wire is stretched. The audio begins with a low, almost imperceptible hum, the sound of the wire at rest. As the stretching begins, the tension is audible and rises slowly, manifesting as a series of creaks and groans from the wire. The sound intensifies, mimicking the increasing strain on the wire, before it finally peaks in a high-pitched, metallic twang, like a guitar string being plucked too hard. The reverberations slowly fade away, leaving behind a sense of palpable tension. The recording captures the essence of this process in remarkable detail, providing a rich resource for sound designers and foley artists.
