In general, I'd say running:
for file in /bin/*
do
aplay -f cd $file
done

is a nice way to spend your evening. My favorite so far was blender ;)

Throwing binary data directly into your ear is super fun!

Some time ago, me and @Esche@chaos.social had some fun with aplaying some random files we had lying around our computers. In general, aplay -f cd some-random-file can give you some noisy results ;)

Here are some examples. Included are: /bin/ls, /bin/lsd, /lib/libc.so.6 and an image I made in blender. All of these files are very noisy, usually close to white noise but they sometimes feature a very "digital sound" i.e. randomly pitched square waves (at least it sounds like that to my ears). I also noticed how ls is way shorter than lsd.

Also, if you're not seeing this in the @harshnoise@sh.itjust.works community and are confused about the slightly odd format of the post: It's the best way I could figure out to "crosspost" these two nice posts to a Lemmy community I started 😼

 

Here's two cool easter-themed posts I saw on Fedi:

The first one is by @gatesofhypnos@mastodon.social:

The second one is by @azugm@mastodon.social:

🎵 🔊 Graumetall (Jesus) ✝️

is an agnostic nanosong and #NapalmDeath tribute which has in fact a length of less than two seconds and the following lyrics:

It's very nice to see the #harshnoise hashtag be so active and creative. :)

I'm just toying around with crossposting to Lemmy communities with this fun post by @wolf@metalhead.club
