I made a thing, it's a code-generated number station podcast:
It has two sources of data: 1) my mysterious corpus 2) you can submit your own message.
Messages are encrypted and read aloud. There's also some music and other random variety. It's weird, but I like it. It's not quite as automated and/or 100% computer-generated as I would like, and I'll probably fiddle with it forever, but here it is!
@muffinista This. Is. AMAZING.
@muffinista whoa, this is incredible
@muffinista is the code behind this available? Can we in the internet help up the automated %
@imani not at the moment but i might open it up later. i usually do
@muffinista Wow, I love this!
@vgan thank you!
@muffinista weird idea! I still remember these number stations from the 80s. There was one in german and we suspected it to be the GDR secret service sending messages to it‘s agents.
@maddin for sure! my first exposure was weird shortwave broadcasts in the 80s too
@muffinista I am grinning bigly :-)
Who tf would think to make their own number stx? :-)
That's marvelous!
@gemlog thank you!
@RussSharek nice, thanks!
Related: It's oddly soothing to have it playing quietly in the background.
@RussSharek agreed! i've enjoyed it a lot as background noise
@muffinista What a cool idea!!! Numbers stations fascinate me.
@muffinista This is extremely cool! Very well done.
@tmcltr thank you!
If you submit a message, you get a decryption key that is only available to you. You could share it with someone, and then they can decode the message. Or, you can write a secret, submit it, and it will be read into the void.
