312-DRY-TOFU - Free-form Question, Comment, Improvisation Voicemail Line

Here is another installment of the free-form question, comment and improvisational voicemail art project, 312-DRY-TOFU (312-379-8638). Give us a call to share your perspective on anything and everything! Tell us about your day, improvise a monologue about a local event, or sing us a song. If it can be captured on the phone, we want to hear it.

In this episode we hear a story of spending a lot of fecking time looking for a car, government robots standing in someone’s way, a review of a local comedy show at Jurassic Park, a story about the value of society, and directions for a 4.9 mile destination.

book detritus

This copy of Weather Report is from July, 1974. It appears to be a small pamphlet published and distributed by PSI (now Duke Energy).

Contents include:

  • Indiana State Fair prize winning fudge recipes by Mrs. Phyllis Vance of Rockville, Indiana.
  • Quotes about society and technology, “The speed and power of modern cars help bring things closer together—like this world and the next.”
  • And there are some tidbits on America’s favorite topic of conversation, “Lightning in the south brings little else but drought.”

Something else finally broke in the Chauncey area. This time with a political and religious bent. Luckily The Media Collective was there to cover it.
