Queer fediverse be like:
Check out my new album, "30 minutes of low bitrate white noise", available only on my gopher-over-IMCP server at epicqueergamer7hfai73pfam55oxhq.onion. Please connect only between 01:00 and 02:00 UTC for reasons I will *not* explain.
@goo @gardevoir Queer tech is an ARG
@goo Ya, that's a valid "case study" Ha.
@goo I feel inordinately called out by this post. 
Especially the Gopher part.
bad joke
@goo gopher-over-IMCP 🤣
Well at least someone is using onions, it's already a step forward.
I'd like to introduce you to https://tgragnato.it/@ghost , she's tooting cryptographically secure random noise every day !
Should also be available at http://mwsasr4ttd2tt3ewl62i7tkywujwcoqfhg2ey4rjz7rklc5qo4nr24yd.onion/@ghost ... unless something broke and I don't know
KawaiiPunk @goo I feel so called out
@goo sounds like my kinda album.
@goo album slaps tho
@goo yo this idea is fire

@goo The ultimate modular synth is simply the commandline. In this essay...
@goo shorter and no aplay dep:
ffmpeg -t 30:00 -f u16be -i /dev/urandom -filter:a "volume=0.2" -b:a 1k -f mp3 - | ffplay -
lol
@makeworld oh yeah, that's much better, nice
@goo thanks lol. I spent too long trying to make make it change pitch over time as well. I almost got there but this is just too much lol
@makeworld @goo I prefer my noise pink:
play -n synth pinknoise gain -3
Of course I have a shell script that creates a whole hour of glorious stereo pink noise (it's like being under a waterfall) and the cover art too:

I mean, who wouldn't? :)
@goo damn where's the queer gopher ring at?
@goo This appeared adjacent to a #looptober post in my timeline. Seems legit.
Since people seem to like this I worked out how to play the album, on linux with ffmpeg and pulseaudio at least:
ffmpeg -t 30:00 -f u16be -i /dev/urandom -filter:a "volume=0.2" -b:a 1k -f mp3 - | ffmpeg -f mp3 -i - -f wav - | aplay
