Digital representation on the web, is definitely, made richer with the use of sound, alongside the text and visuals. However, taking the visual and text away, and mainly focus on sound, brings back memories of the days when film-making is not so prevalent on the internet. The use of sound files was critical to add interactivity. Thank you for posting these examples.
