The Truman Show comes to life:

The project started recording nine months ago when Professor Roy's newborn son left hospital. Since then a "big brother" network of 14 microphones and 11 omni-directional cameras has been recording his son's waking hours.

The idea is to figure out how babies acquire language. I have to say that calling it the Human Speechome Project seems just a bit over the top.
