Typically, a time capsule is sealed and buried to be opened in the future.

One school in Brooklyn is sending theirs into the cloud.

Fifth-graders at the Abraham Stockton School in Bedford-Stuyvesant are creating a digital sound time capsule. Each student records their voice, answering the question “what do you want to be remembered for?”

"One of the biggest things I hope that they take from this project is that they're speaking their future into existence; right, their speaking who they will be into existence right now," said Michael Peterson, a teacher at the Abraham Stockton School.

Along with creating the recordings the students will also build a speaker that will play the recordings for visitors to listen to.
