to snap high resolution images of damaged media. The cracked discs -- often
made of wax on brass or composition board -- are then repaired digitally,
letting researchers play the digitized discs with an emulated stylus. So far,
the team has recovered a handful of 125 year old recordings from a team in

researchers a hands-off way to recover audio from relic recordings without
running the risk of damaging them in the process -- and no, they probably
