EXE as MP3

February 8, 2003

Matthew Ostrowski: Listening for patterns in the sand: Playing an .exe as an mp3. Brewster Kahle describes:

This is a one minute piece by a electronic noise composer who is also a friend. He put different mp3 headers on different files and then listened to them. He said that applications were more interesting than documents. Also, sampling word.exe at 2khz was better than other rates.
