24 cd's! is this in response to the Merzbox
anyone else got any exmamples of recorded silence.
The Phantom Pregancies a UK riot person group in the 90's suppostedly
because of their hatred/fear of technology when they were asked to
appear on a cd compilation, said to leave 2 minutes of silence as their
contribution.
also there's a web site which has an hour recording of a Silent
Refrigerator.
