CWKB recordings directory
CWKB is now complete. In the fullness of time, I'd like to do a clean audio recording of the poem. For now, though, there're recordings of live performances on Twitch. These have pauses and flubs and occasional asides, but I hope their existence at least makes the poem more accessible. This post has a complete listing of them, and a link to a set of downloadable MP3s using the same audio.

- Books 17 and 18 [END]: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2297853992.
If you would prefer downloadable files, a reader has compiled the audio from the Twitch streams into files you can put on an MP3 player, &c &c. These are rough-and-ready recordings with only minimal editing, so don't expect anything like a cleaned-up audiobook, but they do make the poem more accessible. You can find them at: https://neonpixii.itch.io/cwkb-mp3.

for my own ease of listening on a ipod with limited storage space and without internet, (and also because i'm a platform-pessimist) i downloaded the vods, pulled out the audio, and split them up into individual books (with almost no further editing aside from making them louder, adding media player metadata, cutting the very largest chunks of dead air, and iirc one moment of chat moderation being removed).
would it be okay if i linked to a zip file of them here in a comment, for anyone else who'd prefer or need an offline version? (or, i guess alternatively, i could send them to you, and you could host them on your itch as an "interrim audiobook", if you wanted that, because to be honest the easiest way i as a nontechnical person can imagine hosting so many megabytes of audio anyways is via a for-free-only, extremely-unofficial, go-support-the-original-author itch page)
Yes, I think if you link a zip here in a comment that'd be great. I can edit the post to point readers down to it if they do want it. Having a portable version (however rough and ready) would be really good for people with long commutes / intermittent internet access / &c &c. Thank you for offering!
all right, it took an extra evening for my (more-tech-knowing) gf to do some audio magic to give it nicer metadata and make the files smaller, but I finally got it uploaded, here it is: https://neonpixii.itch.io/cwkb-mp3. If you need me to change any of the wording on that page, let me know.
And if you do ever feel the desire in the future to instead host these files directly on your own itch page, please feel free to just do so (I do feel kinda awkward/sheepish hosting something I didn't make under my own itch username).
That's great, thank you! (And pass on my thanks to your girlfriend also!) I'll put a link to that in the main post.
