Quote:Originally posted by rue: I actually had to look up George Jones. Though the music I hear is original to me, once it was in the style of Hank Williams, one of my favorite c&w singers. Another time it sounded like I don't know who, singing about the lonely life of the long distance trucker on the road. I never know what I'll 'hear'. *************************************************************** Silence is consent.

Quote:Originally posted by rue: Here's my contribution, with some explanation. Laboratories are noisy places with lots of different background sounds. Turbo-pumps whine, liquid nitrogen hisses as it off-gases, solenoids click quietly each in its own tempo, motors hum, hoods whoosh as air is drawn through, sonicators buzz, the AC provides continuo - even computer fans contribute. If there's no one around making specific sounds, my brain confabulates music from the noise *. It sounds like someone left a radio quietly playing a few benches away. And it's all sorts of music. Gregorian chant, country and western, African drumming, Indian ragas, jazz, African church hymns ... all very interesting and musically more sophisticated than anything you'll hear in real life. I've actually recorded some of this music (by vm, before I forgot). Not very often, maybe three or four times a year, I'll go into the lab in the evening after everyone is gone, and sit for twenty minutes or so to enjoy the music. * Before anyone gets snarky (RvrLv, Zit, et al, you know who you are), it's a common neurological occurrence. *************************************************************** Silence is consent.
