Part A: Say What?
It sure sounds to me like he is saying: "I took my own life." However, I seriously doubt it was put in the audio file purposefully. Either way, it's pretty cool.
Part B: Matlab Code
%Ben Moeller %ECE 301 Homework 1.2 %Play sound file backwards x = wavread('jpforward.wav'); j = length(x); for (i = 0:(j-1)) y(i+1) = x(j - i); end %first at original frequency wavplay(y, 41000); %next at 1.25 x original frequency wavplay(y, 41000*1.25); %sure sounds to me like he said... "I took my own life" %export the sound file wavwrite(y, 41000, 'BMM1_2.wav');
