On 10th December I’ll be taking part in the HFWAS event Audio Porn
Join us at P Cafe on the 10th December for our last event of the year! Audio Porn is the theme for this night of spoken word and sound based performance. Be warned explicit imagery may be aroused in your minds eye.
£3 entry on the door.
I’ll have a short video and audio installation called Breathless. Plus there’ll be wine!
Awhile back I acquired a Creative ZEN Stone mp3 player. It was a a little scuffed around the edges but otherwise a perfectly functional mp3 player. For some time I was using a pair of regular headphones but then I tried using in a pair of iPhone headphones (and then later HTC headphones). The results are somewhat weird. Take a listen:
[audio mp3=“http://www.hellocatfood.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/glitch-to-daft.mp3"][/audio] Original song: Fade to Daft by Look What I Did (download for free from here.) I had to record this by placing my headphones on my microphone for reasons that I’ll explain later.
As readers of my blog will know by now you can easily import any data into audacity and play it as audio. However, most data that you’ll import and then play will just turn out as noise. That is simply because there’s too much noise in the image i.e. too many colours and too much data. So, if you reduce the amount of colours and data in theory you get something a little bit more pleasing to the ear. Experimentationing time!
