Is Dither Universal?
Posted on | June 14, 2009 | No Comments
I was listening to NPR yesterday and heard a short piece about a visual artist who uses static from analog television as part of his art. Now that the switch has been made to digital, he will be losing some raw material to work with.
He mentioned that a bit of static is actually an echo from the Big Bang, or CMBR: Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation.
Wow, is all I can say. Never heard of it before, but it’s a pretty cool concept. Sort of like galactic dither.
