"It is true that there is always a point at which the signal is masked by noise. variations of a certain subtlety are so small as to be absorbed into the background of fluctuations of pressure, the constant movement of the air, the vibrations of the earth. What is this noise but cosmic vibration, the fused sum of all the vibrations to reach this point in time and space? Vibrations do not disappear, but dissipate, echoing all the while, for energy is conserved. Every vibration, every sound, hangs in the air, in the room, in bodies. Sounds spread out, they become less and less contracted, they fuse, but still they remain, their energy of vibration moving the air and the walls in the room, making a noise that still tickles the strings of a violin playing weeks later. Every sound masks an entire history of sound, a cacophony of silence. Even our bodies hum along with the noise of universe. (At its most disparate limit, noise dissipates eventually into the tiny motions of individual molecules, which is to say, heat.)"
