An interactive audio piece layers quiet songs with pink noise and asks listeners to report what they hear.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-10 issue.

Field notes

The collection varies each piece across eleven noise levels, from almost none to too much, making the listener’s threshold part of the work rather than a fixed mix decision. The page identifies source material through Creative Commons licenses, including CC BY 2.5 and CC BY 3.0, and describes purchase files as master WAVs, all eleven variations, cover art, and credits. A separate 20-minute listen and a free item provide ways to enter without purchasing.
