Narrative and Sound Project

Writes the Narrative and Sound Project:

I recently started a new web project [The Narrative and Sound Project], and your organization plays a very important part of it. The web project is about existing audiobooks and the idea of synthesizing them with music and sound. I have downloaded some of the audiobooks collection in your website and retouched them with music and sound. With the new collection, I have created a website solely for this purpose.

Here’s the web address of the project: http://www.thenarrativeandsoundproject.org/
