Regenerative Entropy by Steven Human Being

Regenerative Entropy is an exploration into the decay of progress.
A digital recording (4min 10sec length, repeated for an hour) of a suffering industry that was then recorded onto analogue tape, then back onto digital, cleanly compressed and recorded back to analogue.....and so on, for fourteen times.
It shows how information, when is condensed, improved, retold and repackaged, gradually loses the initial or original message, ending up with a very different sound altogether.
This project was inspired by William Basinski's "Disintegration Loops".
The cyanotype background picture is by Songbird Creations.

Hello, my name is Steven and I'm a Human Being, hopefully, just like you are. This is not a picture of me, but a bloke I used to work with. His name was George. I don't think he's alive anymore, but I reckon he would approve of me using his image. He was into music too. Are you into music? I am. I enjoy messing around with various forms of audio experimentation. It's good to be here. Welcome. xxxx
