Why do you think Magic Window exists?

(1) It's not a silent track 99% of the time

(2) how could that be?

(1) yes it is

(2) by having 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

0000000000000 etc. bits in the raw aiff data of the CD track, that's how.

That's just the sublime melody of schizophrenia you're hearing.

like i said, you're probably --well no you really are-- wrong

It's not my fault you downloaded a crappy mp3 compressed version of the track. That actual data on the audio CD is pure 0's all through the track.

play it backwards

if it has 00000000000000000 bits of data, which i agree with, then how could it not be a silent track 99% of the time?

dude, see a shrink, please.

Because you are hearing sounds in what we like to call "the real world"

This is what happens when BOC stop being polite and start being real!

open track in audacity

observe straight unbroken line

attempt to amplify by a billion %

continue to observe straight broken line

kill self

post about failed suicide attempt on watmm

etc

it exists because boc don't like it when their cds repeat right away after playing once. it makes the album 66 minutes and 6 seconds or whatever it is because a guy at warp thought it would be funny.

jesus fucking christ.

did you burn your toast?

no... i'm just a little upset at the proliferation of utterly asinine boc fanboi threads lately.

what colour is boc's hair?

what shampoo do boc use?

what do they eat for breakfast?

etc.

whhat is magic window for?

it's for silence.

nothing there.

analyse it any which way you like, but it clearly brings the length up to the 66.06.

that's all.

yeah

well i'm glad the toast is ok

me too.

thanks,

a little known fact, though, is that if you hold the needle cartridge gently over the surface of the engraving while manually spinning the platter at approximately 15 rpms, a hologram of 'box" from logan's run will appear, and give a narrative about marigolds in spring.

oh you got that too??

i thought it was the dose

Orange! next!

toast. and i must say they seem unnaturally satisfied with the state thereof.

it's for looking out my magic house, into my magic yard. i can also use my Door of Perception to exit my magic house and get in my magic car, back it out of my magic driveway and into my magic street which will bring me to any destination i please. see, the magic window is not nearly as powerful as the door of perception!

oh, and there's something about marigolds apparently, as well, but i don't have the album on vinyl so i couldn't tell you.

hope that helped!

thanks.

phew.

gaining insight via a 'window' of the mind is paramount, but it is ultimately the door that we walk through, in order to venture towards what we see through that window that makes the difference.

i am now going to make a tune called 'magic door' that will best boc at their own game. it will be completely silent, but with a little voice at the conclusion of 7 minutes, stating 'go outside'.

oh the profundity.

the cryptic frequency: 150-160 KHz (not MHz) is among the ranges given for Bearden's "Magic Windows"

Just to be pedantic: It's not AIFF, it's PCM without a header.

It exsits to bring the album to 66:06
