This sample consists of noise recorded via a Hondo Strat electric guitar resp. the guitar's neck pickup. Throughout the sample there is a low hum. In the beginning, a mobile phone was moved in front of the pickup. The noise might have been created by the clock of the phone's CPU or the backlight of the phone. After that, one CRT display is switched on resulting in a buzz. Later on, a second CRT display is switched on, again resulting in a buzz followed by additional noise in higher frequencies. Then, a neon light is switched on, creating even more noise. Towards the end, again the mobile phone...
The guitar was connected to a Scott&Noble HT25R amplifier which was recorded with a t.bone SC450 condenser and a Behringer DDX3216 digital console directly into Ardour.

The question of usefulness... well, if it's arts, it doesn't need to be useful, otherwise it would be design. ;-) Most of the samples I put committed to Freesound were not made for a particular purpose. But it's interesting to find out what people are actually doing with them.

Agreed about the discomfort! Great recording.
