Like the infinite monkeys typing Shakespeare, but with audio instead.
If there was a program that created a series of sounds at random intervals, pitches, amplitudes, etc., how long would it take to produce an output that sounds like music, some sort of recognisable recording (e.g. a bell ring, a dog barking), or perhaps even a human voice?
I used to think this until I listened to Merriweather Post Pavilion while on a particularly large dose of psilocybin like a decade ago.
Absolutely incredible album. Never heard anything like it before or since.
haha, very much the same for me. i do appreciate some of their albums while not on drugs now, though.
Boards of Canada was another one I’d always listen too if I was on something. very different music style for AC though.
I’d heard of beer goggles, and now I’ve heard of psilocybin ears.
Not much sticks past maybe a week or two after a trip, in my experience, but I can listen to that album sober and appreciate it just as much. I just needed to be altered in order to truly give it a listen the first time
Can you still listen to it? I found i have a hard time with things like music and tv that ive seen high
