Baghdad, 1258. The Mongol army is days away from burning the greatest library on Earth. Enter four time-traveling nerds with strict orders: Watch. Don’t interfere. Too bad history isn’t that simple.
Dr. Leila Nassar (a historian with family ties to the chaos) leads a crew of rebels, rule-followers, and idealists. Their mission seems simple: document the House of Wisdom’s destruction. But there is one problem: The scholars they’re supposed to coldly observe won’t stop being human!
This is just all the episodes merged into 1. Whether you wish to re-watch, or you coming here for the first time, enjoy over 35 minutes of uninterrupted Ashes of wisdom!

This is the third episode in a series of 5. This episode takes place 2 days from where the last one ended. I tried experimenting with background/transitional music, which may or may not become a tradition depending on what you think. Regardless though, please comment! I'm a simple human, seeing comments as well as constructive criticism always makes my day. Enjoy!

This is the second episode in a series of 5. There are some minor glitches I discovered after rendering, but nothing that could break it for you. This is also the last episode full of exposition. Now that we got you familiar with all the main characters, later episodes will be much more interesting and full of action. Please enjoy, and don't forget to comment after you've listened!

This is the first episode in a series of 5. It starts in medias res, which might cause you some confusion. However, everything should become clearer the more episodes you watch. Constructive criticism welcome!
The upload size limit is now 500 hole megabytes. With 256 kbps opus (which is pretty much lossless--wait for audiophiles complaining in comments--) you can upload like over 4 hours. And if you use variable bitrate you can easily get that to many more hours with no quality loss.
Also uploads got much faster. Transcoding happens in the background now, so as soon as the original file finishes uploading the audio will be up. The apple users might have to wait a couple minutes for some files, for the transcoded audio to be finished because Apple decided not supporting modern industry standard formats would be nice.
DON’T ABUSE THIS unless you want me crying again but also? go nuts. break things. upload your 3am existential scream recording. idc.
Because of some no-life trolls, I paused laziness for once and implemented a feature that requires new accounts be reviewed by admins before their posts and comments are able to be viewed by the public. Thus, for any new accounts, please upload an introduction audio or comment or something so you can be seen.
Sorry for the extra bureaucracy. Blame the brain-dead morons who made this dumpster fire necessary.

Good content on Audiopub was drowning in AI-generated content lately, so I launched ai-trash.audiopub.site to deal with it. Don't worry, this isn't a total AI ban. I'm just trying to separate the low-effort stuff from the creative work.
So Basically, if you're just throwing prompts at an AI and uploading whatever it spits out, that's going to the new site. likewise for mass-produced AI uploads. But if you're using AI as a tool in your creative process, or making experimental stuff that uses AI in not overused cool ways, your content is staying on the main site.
we'll be taking a closer look at uploads. Anything that's clearly just AI output with no real human touch is heading to ai-trash. But if we can see you've put genuine effort and creativity into it, even if AI helped along the way, your content is good to stay on the main site.
This isn't about AI being bad. Notice that the new mirror is called ai-trash, not just ai. But it's about keeping some standards and not letting the site get flooded with low-effort spam.
Ai-trash.audiopub.site will be a full mirror of the main site. Your uploads there will still be playable and accessible, just not cluttering up the main feed. If one of your uploads gets moved there, it doesn't mean that was a punishment. It was just to keep the main site clean. Unless you spam... But that's a different story.
Our intrepid band of accidental heroes has glimpsed the truth behind the veil of reality. Did they create it, though?
This is a direct continuation of iteration 2, and the conclusion of this iteration and probably the entire series. I hope you've enjoyed it as I enjoyed making it!
The watch's whisper grows urgent: 'Tempus eam exspectat'. Time waits for her. But who is she, and why does time bend its own rules just for her?
This is iteration 2 of "The Pendulum's Shadow". Please be informed that this is iteration 2 of a series. It is strongly recommended that you first listen to iteration 1 if you haven't
The watch whispers its Latin warning: "Tempus neminem manet". Time waits for no one, indeed. How foolish we were to think we could make it wait, make it bend, make it bow to our will. We've seen London's fog-shrouded streets and its gleaming spires of tomorrow. We've brushed shoulders with the Ripper and the Raven, thinking we could rewrite their stories. But time... time is the true author.
This is my first ever tts skit. Feedback is appreciated
a developer's middle finger to traditional music production methods. Who needs midi or instruments when you have js?
Remember that: "Anything that can be written in JavaScript, will eventually be written in JavaScript." And now its coming to music!
I wrote this without using any 3rd party libraries. Everything is synthesized in the same html file. The math was a bitch, ai didn't exactly help with it (AI SUCKS AT MATH) but googling surprisingly helped here.
So, 100 verified users in 4 days. What?! I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. When I deployed the first version of this site 4 days ago, I was just hoping that a couple people give a shit enough to use it a bit. But here we are, with a hundred of you amazing people actually using this thing I built. Mind. Blown.
Fair warning: my voice in this audio sounds like a dying robot with a glitchy accent. But hey, I'm a dev, not a pr manager or something! Code I can do; socializing, not so much. Bear with me.
Anyway, thank you so so so much!
This is the 3rd part of my playthrough of Evidence 111. We play until the end of game!
PLEASE NOTE that the story is very extensive, with a lot of completely different paths depending on your choices, so you'll only see one path here represented by my own actions. I hope you enjoy!
This is the second part of my playthrough of Evidence 111. This continues from the first, right after where the demo ends. This is where the story gets truely interesting. I hope you listen to the end as the story is pretty well done, and the sound design is simply great!

This is the first part of my playthrough of Evidence 111. We've done the tutorial (which is pretty boring), than started the actual story. I hope you listen to the end as the story is pretty well done, and the sound design is simply great! This part actually walks you until the end of the demo, then you have to buy the full version which is totally worth it! I bought the full version so expect next parts very soon. Also please comment!

Pretty sure i sound like a dying robot. No idea why anyone would want to listen but hey, gotta start somewhere right?
Might delete later when I realize how bad this was. or maybe I'll keep it as a monument to my lack of social skills. Who knows.
