An Experiment in White Noise With ASCII
Peter suggested our class open an existing .wav or .aif file in a text editor and play around with the text, then bring the result into Audacity and work out the rest however way we see it. Since anything I was doing with the ASCII symbols, whether additive or destructive, was yielding only white noise, I positioned its occurrence strategically in the middle and played with the second half in Audacity, resulting in a before vs. after experience. Enjoy my Italian mandolin gone awry!
