Hi Alan and Ann, Alan, eh up lad, hope you had good time gadding about in New York!
>you can't hear absolute silence (external) because you hear your own sounds (internal) so you'd probably be wasting your money buying a tape of silence(!)< True...e.g in an anechoic chamber you just hear your heart and nervous system (v.weird.......we have one here at Keele for neurological Research so sometimes I get to play in one) but my point was that you can record true silence as oppose to "Cagean" silence (i.e background noise) so Rogalsky had the choice. Ann, never been to the desert.......sounds pretty cool.........maybe one day. cheers, Sol.
