In the age of computer-generated music and digital cameras and camcorders, have you wondered whether it was possible to turn your tape-recorded interviewing into a digital process? Existing hardware and software are now available that will allow you to record, transcribe (via keyboard and remote foot pedal), and analyze digital interview data. Where appropriate, digitally recorded interview data can be used to enhance the power of your PowerPoint, GIS, Internet, and film-based multimedia presentations by actually allowing the interviewees' voices to be heard.
