As the audio piece titled "Soundscape of Grain Frequency" begins, you are immediately enveloped in a granular, textured world of sound. The audio experience is akin to being surrounded by countless minute particles of sound, each one distinct yet blending seamlessly into the whole. This soundscape is dominated by a continuous, underlying hum that resembles the complex, oscillating frequencies of fast Fourier transform, often abbreviated as FFT. This mathematical algorithm used in signal processing creates a rhythmic, pulsating backbone to the audio, instilling a sense of motion and dynamism. Overlaying this FFT-inspired hum is an array of metallic sounds. These range from high-pitched, almost tinny notes that echo like distant wind chimes, to deep, resonant tones reminiscent of a large gong struck in a cavernous space. The metallic sounds add an industrial, almost futuristic edge to the soundscape, evoking images of vast, gleaming factories or intricate, clockwork machinery. Surrou
