Whats it all about Freddy, you, person with too much time to spare???
In the search for something that can make totally random sounds and in the interest of fucking things up I decided to make this. The Subether NG (name derived from Hitchhikers Guide). By using radio wave as the source for the sound it is listening to the sound of the everything and nothing at the same time. For example, the sounds we hear on the radio, specifically AM/LW radio are bouncing of the ionosphere from all corners of the globe and the back ground sound you hear is the sound of the magnetic fields its passing though. Also you get all sorts of interference noises (it went crazy when the thermostat for fridge came on) that are mainly very local to the device.  I wanted sounds that sounded as evil as possible.
Its all under this cut............. )

I wanted to make a tape that was just 1 second long. really hard to get it exactly right but it kind of worked. The tape I used an old Motleycrue ones. I cut the tape in the middle and grabbed a bit of it and measured a 1 second length and positioned it back in the cassette mechanism.
I recorded the results in Adobe Audition.

sMy Edison Dictaphone Finnally arrived! from 1926. It didnt actually travel through time but it looks like it did now cos Iv cleand it up a bit.
The motor dosnt work, Iv tested it.. no signal. brun out. That isnt really a problem for what I want to do with it though. >

The Diagram is a bit rough but basically its a wax cylinder playing machine that uses a modern stylus to pick up the tracks.
Also theres going to be a built in speaker and echo effect, just for the hell of it. It wil be manually operatied via a turning handle.
The wax cylinders are still available at boot sales and ebay, Im not sure how its going to sound but its going be very odd indeed.
Originally this machine would have 'cut' the wax cylinders, hence 'dictaphone' but sadly thoes parts are no longer opperational
