technology related sensory memories from my childhood

• sliding the metal cover on floppy disks
• the slight resistance of inserting cassette and video tapes
• ripping off the strips of holed paper off of dot matrix printer paper 
• rolling the wheel on a disposable camera to take another photo

• The “warp speed” sound of a VCR rewinding a VHS tape.
• The sound of all the static electricity discharging off the screen when you turned off your CRT monitor or TV after it’s been on for a long time.
• Modem handshake.
• The “tick-tick-tick CLICK” sound of a rotary phone’s dial returning to home after you input a number.
