I created this audio-file http://www.deviantart.com/download/119406207/Mixing_to_Silence_by_cougarten.mp3

This Work is about the edges of recognisabillity

It is an overlay of up to 100 instances of one audio snippit. Mixing many information gives you random noise and those random noise waves have an average, it's the value they are oscillating around: zero - silence.

The Track features a sample of Tom Waits, reading "The Laughing Heart" by Charles Bukowski and a sample from Waits song "Just Another Sucker On The Vine"

(Mixing more and more copies of the sample would get me closer and closer to complete silence, but this would take to long to be interesting so I just fade in at the beginning of this file)

The whole Text #DON'T READ IT BEFORE YOU'VE LISTENED. IT WOULD SPOIL THE MOMENT IN WHICH YOU BEGIN TO RECOGNIZE WORDS#:

The Laughing Heart
your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.

-- Charles Bukowski

the output are many smaller wavesamples that match in reverse order. Volume has to be smothed in postproduction.

sry for the repost, got an error and thought it did not submit
