[NetBehaviour] The Book of Falling Silent

[Paul Hertz]

The title just popped into my head, first as "The Book of Holding Still"
for one of the images, and then as "The Book of Falling Silent" for the
whole series. Its more a trope than a narrative: to make sound into an
image is for sound to fall silent. To see sound all-at-once as in image,
instead of moving through time as a sound is to have the sound hold still.

One end result should be an actual book. I am thinking of how the images
could be performed or animated, too. The software I wrote can play the
images as sounds, though I still have a lot of development to do.

thanks,

-- Paul
