Re: [microsound] Fish n[OT?] good for undisclosed noise artists



i know nothing about these mechanisms but i think they're highly 
significant (of something)
yesterday i heard for the first time a parrot imitating almost perfectly 
the sounds of his human friend's mobile phone:
signal for sms receiving
signal of incoming call
but mostly: sounds of different number buttons.... all this intended just 
for panasonic phones, because the sounds are distinctive (nokia sounds are 
different for example)

sign of the times? i was astonished, nature is watching us
