  • THE FIRST FORTY YEARS INTRODUCTION by Susan Stamberg
    THE FIRST FORTY YEARS INTRODUCTION by Susan Stamberg Shiny little platters. Not even five inches across. How could they possibly contain the soundtrack of four decades? How could the phone calls, the encounters, the danger, the desperation, the exhilaration and big, big laughs from two score years be compressed onto a handful of CDs? If you’ve lived with NPR, as so many of us have for so many years, you’ll be astonished at how many of these reports and conversations and reveries you remember—or how many come back to you (like familiar songs) after hearing just a few seconds of sound. And you’ll be amazed by how much you’ve missed—loyal as you are, you were too busy that day, or too distracted, or out of town, or giving birth (guess that falls under the “too distracted” category). Many of you have integrated NPR into your daily lives; you feel personally connected with it. NPR has gotten you through some fairly dramatic moments. Not just important historical events, but personal moments as well. I’ve been told that a woman’s terror during a CAT scan was tamed by the voice of Ira Flatow on Science Friday being piped into the dreaded scanner tube. So much of life is here. War, from the horrors of Vietnam to the brutalities that evanescent medium—they came to life, then disappeared. Now, of Iraq. Politics, from the intrigue of Watergate to the drama of the Anita on these CDs, all the extraordinary people and places and sounds Hill-Clarence Thomas controversy.

  • Sound Design 101 from Ramtin Arablouei of the Podcast Throughline
    Interview 2: Sound design 101 from Ramtin Arablouei of the podcast Throughline [00:00:00] So far this week, we've been talking a lot about writing and thinking about the story that you really want to tell, but there's another dimension to great audio storytelling that's become a lot more important in recent years. And that's sound design. And it's way more than just like smoke and mirrors and magic. It's really about how sound can be almost a character in an audio production. Pacing, natural sound, and music scoring can really create its own environment that can help transport your listener and really bring a story to life. Ramtin Arablouei is a colleague of mine at NPR, and he's probably best known as the co-host of Throughline. It's a podcast that uses creative, immersive storytelling to reintroduce history to new audiences. And what you might not know is that Ramtin isn't just the host. He's also the producer, and he's an audio engineer by training, who worked in recording studios and in sound design and even wrote music for films and commercials. I asked him to join us to talk with us a little bit about sound design. Ramtin, thanks for joining us today. [00:00:57] Of course, my pleasure. [00:01:00] So when I say sound design, break down for us what that means, like what are the elements and how are you using them? [00:01:07] So sound design can mean different things in different contexts.
