Timex In A Synthesized Woods
I am staying at a hotel that uses the Timex T610S alarm clock, which purports to be able to use “nature sounds” to wake a person up. Last I checked, nature doesn’t require an alarm clock and an electrical grid to make sounds, but okay, I thought, I’ll try it.
I chose Forest sounds. When it started this morning, I went to the window, because it sounded kind of like a car accident, or maybe a set of old bed springs and a bad techno whistle. I think it was supposed to be crickets and an owl, over and over again in a short loop.
Not the best breath of fresh air for overcrowded city folk who crave camp.
