1/f is the more listenable than white noise. it feels less intense. and when acted upon by a resonant filter it gets a little more sin wave like (sinusoidal).

I've heard that when used for algorhythmic sequencing (ie mapped across a keyboard range), it sounds the more like music than less self refferential noises.

but re: voss and clarke, I read somewhere someone refuting them saying they tested multiple pieces in the same sample and that much of the data was compromised. I don't know who to believe. still it's interesting to experiment with.

i read a book about 1/f noise
dont remember what its called or who its by
dont remember what it said either
but i liked it"

i think it was called 'ubiquity'
1/f is all over nature in every way
its not just about sounds
