Hello noise-lovers!
I'm an avid consumer of noise music, but something of a technology and equipment neophyte. I have a guitar, Gristelizer, Black audio Destructor and some other gear, but am also keen to elarn how the likes of John Wiese, Icapacitants or Merzbow are able to generate such ear-splitting high-pitched squeals using their laptops. Is it a specific software? If so, is it available for Macs? I'm guessing there's more than one method, but feel taking the dumbass approach ensures I get the best feedback.
I also noticed when I went to see Pain Jerk perform live that he had a weird, slender board that he would rub with a piece of circular metal to produce amazingly loud and crunching noise. Anyone knows what that could be?
Many thanks to anyone who can recommend anything that could help me learn more on this noise journey.
