A collage of images from the Dispatches event - Neil Wilson giving his talk about the Midget disc recorder; some buns on the snack table; a slide with a quote from Rabelais' Gargantua & Pantagruel with sound words like trr, trr, taack, bou, bou; a fluffy mic on a binaural recording device; and in the centre some wax cylinders, an Edison gramophone and a Midget disc recorder prototype, just visible in the background.
