Unquiet Mind
This one comes before 2020, it was just a one off experiment using Devious Machines Texture to randomly play grains of 20 to 2000 ms +/- 20% of a voice memo. YouTube kept blocking it for violations of community guidelines, but eventually brought it back upon appeal. I think it was possibly because the visualization looked like a coronavirus, as the automated transcript contains nothing objectionable. But who knows what automated agents think.
Since it’s already done, and up, I might as well push it to my podcast feed.
