A contribution by Shannon1

The room is half-underground, tucked in a back corner of an academic building, air ducts whirring overhead. You show up for a shift with coffee in hand and check the clunky old desktop computer to see if any jobs have come in. A couple of your coworkers are already here; one printing a whole boxload of concert programs for the Chamber Music Society, another taking scans of textbook pages for AMST 232. When you first got this job, the sounds of all the machines running at once seemed cacophonous. Now, though, the rhythms of scanning and printing and typing have grown familiar, even soothing.
As you send a batch of intro-level statistics problem sets to print, you think, "Now if only they'd pay me more than minimum wage."

Create Your Own

Use a laptop or desktop computer, as you will be asked to use keyboard shortcuts.

To create your custom composite generator, browse the site for slider contents: open any generator on myNoise, and select the sliders you want to use in your custom set by 'zeroing' all others, then hit [c] to collect all active sliders into a hidden stack. Move to a next generator and repeat the process until you have accumulated 10 sliders. Now hit [shift+c] to render your custom composite generator. At any point, press [x+c] to clear the hidden stack.
