Though computer development aims to quantize data, it also produces a multitude of artifacts of the virtuality that are, getting dated in time with their technical purpose, drifting to the abstract objects’ domain. A lot of them are digital tools at the first place, and even if their purpose was or was not to transmit the sound, they have certain acoustic and sound properties.
