Inspiration and Own Work

GOT EM! (But need to find it on my old hard drive... coming soon)

Radio Experiments

With the tuner I had the idea of trying to find 'weird' noises and translating them into more humane sounds. So instead of looking for actual voices, I wanted to create them myself. I tried to do this with the program Audacity, using effects like Pitch etc.

Original Sound File: First Test & Edited Sound File: First Test

The first test I mostly played with pitch, I tried to remove the static and see if that created a human feeling. It didn't, in my opinion. Instead it just sounded more flat.

Original Sound File: White Noise & Edited Sound File: White Noise Talking

Next, I tried to find a weak signal, where maybe you couid almost here a conversation but would be too confusing. It already begins to sound more human, yet some stretches of the 'conversation' have this glitchy sound to them that I couldn't get rid of. But just removing the noise and changing the pitch really helped.

Original: Noise & Edited: Noise in Deep Space

This was a 'happy accident'. Trying to make this noise more human I instead got the sound of a starship in deep space... I changed the pitch to a very low sound and changed the speed of the noise. This, together with messing around with the bass and treble (I was actually trying to decrease the bass) got this humming space sound.
