Re: [microsound] stolen silence

yes :(
yesterday we tried to record how i breath on the phone for 10 sec intro track,
but i needed to do it very loud, cause those lowercase sounds from another side are taken off

>You don't hear silences on the phone anymore. They've got this time-sharing thing on long-distance lines where you make a pause and they snip out that piece of time and use it to carry part of somebody else's conversation. Instead of a pause, where somebody's maybe breathing or sighing, you get this blank hole and you only start hearing again when someone says a word and even the beginning of the word is clipped off. Silences don't count -- you're paying for them, but they take them away from you
