first Lamin and now Rupture, the perfect radio evening

Wed. 4/25/12 8:11pm base 16:

0759c576bab5de79719bb6c332364dbf92c189de - What is it? Some kind of HEX?

Wed. 4/25/12 8:13pm the glowing one:

that's a sha-1 hash

Wed. 4/25/12 8:13pm Kat in Chicago:

I dunno what it is but hearing Rupture read it on air was pretty great

Wed. 4/25/12 8:16pm RupTure:

what's a sha-1 hash? NO TIME TO GOOGLE IM DOIN A RADHIO SHOW

Wed. 4/25/12 8:18pm the glowing one:

it's a cryptographic has function with which you can basically uniquely identify a large set of data... like a digital song for instance ;)

Wed. 4/25/12 8:20pm the glowing one:

if only one bit in the song is different the hash will be completely different. and the hash function is built in a way that faking it is nearly impossible. so it's very important tool to verify data.

Wed. 4/25/12 8:21pm RupTure:

and you pronounce it "shah one" ?

Wed. 4/25/12 8:22pm the glowing one:

right

Wed. 4/25/12 8:24pm juan:

nice show !!!!

Wed. 4/25/12 8:25pm Destroit:

just joining, like what I hear. Hello everybody.

Wed. 4/25/12 8:27pm RupTure:

hello everybody

Wed. 4/25/12 8:30pm the glowing one:

the fascniating thing about hash functions is that they are very short compared to the data they are thrown at. the sha-1 is only 20 bytes long, that's 1/52428 of a megabyte! still no-one has managed to intentionally create two identical sha-1 hashes from two different data sets yet. although for older weaker hash functions that has been achieved already.

Wed. 4/25/12 8:32pm 12539:

TCF's soundcloud page has a title with upside down characters too. I'd hate to have to read that one out loud.

Wed. 4/25/12 8:34pm the glowing one:

oh, 20 bytes don't seem much, but it means that there are over 1.46 Quindecillion possible SHA-1 hashes... I had to look the name of that large number name up ;P

Wed. 4/25/12 8:37pm the glowing one:

YES, thanks for bringing that topic up, Mr. Rupture! people need to become more aware of that issue...

Wed. 4/25/12 8:40pm the glowing one:

ironically Apple's iTunes loudness normilization is counteracting this effect of overcompression.... with it enabled the "loud" stuff just sounds as crappy as it really is (there are other schemes, like ReplayGain, but Apple is more popular)

Wed. 4/25/12 8:45pm the glowing one:

there's no such normalization with CD players, but with iPods and computers there is! so in the end, this loudness war will hopefully end when the CD is gone.
so the oh-so-bad-sounding-digital-files will eventually lead to better mastering again and this to better listening experiences (at least for the new stuff, the damage that been done to the 90s and 00s music can't be easily undone)... :P

Wed. 4/25/12 8:49pm the glowing one:

this video made by engineer Bob Katz is explaining it pretty well:

Wed. 4/25/12 8:52pm RupTure:

thanks! do you do audio mastering/engineering Glowing One? you seem in pretty deep w/ this stuff

Wed. 4/25/12 8:55pm the glowing one:

no, I don't but I've been a member since the early 00s at a forum that copes with digital audio, HydrogenAudio.org, so I've learned a bit along the way. I'm not a engineer and all I know is pretty basic anyhow. I'm just a (digital) audio enthusiast.

Wed. 4/25/12 8:59pm the glowing one:

haha, he has added all his snare samples into an audio player and pressed play

Wed. 4/25/12 8:59pm HotRod:

Much of the development of the snare drum and the drum rudiments is closely tied with the use of the snare drum in the military. In his book, The Art of Snare drumming, Sanford A. Moeller (of the "Moeller Method" of drumming) states that "To acquire a knowledge of the true nature of the [snare] drum, it is absolutely necessary to study military drumming, for it is essentially a military instrument and its true character cannot be brought out with an incorrect method. When a composer wants a martial effect, he instinctively turns to the drums".
Before the advent of radio and electronic communications, the snare drum was often used to communicate orders to the soldiers. American troops were woken up by drum and fife, playing about 5 minutes of music, including the well known Three Camps. Troops were also called for meals by certain drum pieces such as "Peas on a Trencher", or "Roast Beef". A piece called the "Tattoo" was used to signal that all soldiers should be in their tent, and "The Fatigue" was used to police the quarters or drum unruly women out of the camp. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snare_drum

Wed. 4/25/12 9:01pm RupTure:

woah

Wed. 4/25/12 9:01pm ifny:

@HotRod: word.

Wed. 4/25/12 9:02pm HotRod:

Thanks for the show, Rupture :)
