The process also depends on hard-limiting, which transforms the input structure; the operation is two-staged: Think of the operations as a fundamental inversion of amplitude, a form of energy conversion, f(x) -> 1/x for example, x ranging between, say, (0,2). The practical result is the audibility of the surrounding environment and the player's body and play processes; the normative instrumental sound is backgrounded (what is taken as acceptable sound, as music, for example). (It feels like a form of channeling, an introjection of alien material in relation to a trialog among body, electronics, acoustic instruments. Or a projection of such sound. Or sound speaking through loud speakers. Or speakers channeling amplitude. Or speakers channeled. Or inversions of any of these.)
