Sorry I am responding so late to this...
I don't think it will be possible for there to be any commentaries to join each audio segment. The audio work involved and the demand on Carla might be too much for her to commit to at this moment. That is not to say that she may choose to isolate a few special sessions upon request.
The audio project is being processed by me at this time. The audio is in fairly rough shape since it was recorded on analog tape and contains a lot of the artifacting and hissing that our old tape technology is so well-known for. We have purchased a sound editing tool which has the ability to sample the tape noise, and then use phase-cancellation to suppress the noise while leaving Carla's voice intact. While it's not a miracle cure, it is a remarkable improvement over the raw data. We then normalize the sound, and compress it so that it sounds smooth. This is just a routine process of "wetting" the dry/raw sound, as they say!
As the sessions are cleaned up and re-encoded, we will post them to the site as they become completed. This is something that should begin taking shape during the next few weeks, and there will be an announcement.
I will mention this thread to Gary when I talk to him next, and I will request that these ideas are brought up to Carla and Jim for their consideration! :-)
Thanks for the input!
