This is not for the fainthearted, but interesting in the same way car crashes are. I've been interested in the idea of messing with digital audio information ever since a CD of some music I burned turned out very wrong indeed, like the 1's had become 0's, turning what was music into wild cacophony. A couple of weeks ago I was looking for a way to visualise the binary that makes up a digital audio file, and found a way of converting audio into an image format that Photoshop could display.
By processing the image in nearly any way, then transcoding the results to audio, I ended up with the most intense noise I have ever created / facilitated...not perhaps the most listenable noise, but interesting how the same information interpreted through another medium and back again can sound like this!
