Here is the audio of the English text of Variations on the Body that was given to me by Randolph Burks. I cleaned the text of footnotes and other apparatus, noted headings and sections, then fed it into NaturalSoft text-to-speech in four blocks. It isn't as good as having a human being reading it but it does allow quick turn-around and will hopefully be a useful experiment.
Is this type of audio - or audio of written texts in general - of any value?
Part 1 - Metamorphosis
Part 2 - Potential
Part 3 - Knowledge
Part 4 - Vertigo

Hi,
Seems very interesting...
I am Belgian and given my level of English, I have difficulties with automatic audios like these.
Can you make available the written source?

Hi Benoit,
I've attached the document - it should be downloadable from the website as well - two posts back. We are also working on another version of it with images and hyperlinks.
Cheers.

Hola, soy docente de diseño de vestuario y mis alumnos hicieron un trabajo sobre este libro que quisiéramos compartir con ustedes, a qué correo lo puedo enviar?
I can answer your question regarding value in the affirmative. I was able to listen to what you produced, and found it very valuable. I might not have had the time to read it as carefully. Thanks for providing it.
