I realised that I probably wasn't the only person who did this, but assumed it was far too weird to hear a "Me too" from anyone I actually know. Do you know the story behind the artwork for Joy Division's <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/images/B000V7J6DO/" rel="nofollow">Unknown Pleasures</a>? Until a couple of years ago, I assumed that was a musical waveform too. It's actually a graph of the final 100 bursts of radiation from a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsar" rel="nofollow">pulsar</a>... a mathematical representation of a dying star. I've only just realised that this was probably the inspiration for the title of my recurring <a href="http://www.hydragenic.com/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/hydragen/mt/mt-search.cgi?search=dwarf+star+origami" rel="nofollow">Dwarf Star Origami</a> pieces, which started to emerge about the same time that I learnt this.

I used to do the same thing on car journeys. Biro tip touching the pad of paper, recording each twist and turn, rise and fall of the journey. JIM E of UPcDownC produced a fashion range using the musical wave form of his band's music. Very cool.x Weird kids. I used to do the same thing on car journeys.
