What is the Bit Depth of an Image? | Image Bit Depth Explained | 8-Bit vs. 16-Bit

Same thing in music. I work in 16 bit and my final output is usually higher. That is simply because, I have an expectation that I DEGRADE sounds on purpose to get a desired effect. I am an abstract creator (note I don’t use the term artist). You will never see my end result “clean cut.”
-
…almost everything I create has “happy accidents” that I DEPEND on happening before I even go into a project. When I playback a song of mine after not hearing it for a few years, I am just as much amazed at how I got a particular sound as anyone else, and I can’t even recreate it.
-
Like Guitar Bizarre, I just woke up at 2 AM and couldn’t go to sleep and I hit the record button and started doing what I “felt” and bounced the track down within an hour. I was perfectly happy with that. I wouldn’t make a whole album of that but that was the finishing touch that I needed to say, “hey, I’m just goofing off, don’t take me serious.”

AI writes better music than any musician on the current pop charts. My opinion.

Darren Farris posted in the group Music Junkie
Bob Welch was a very interesting person outside of being a musician. I know he had some ideas that were sort of “out there” so that puts him in my HIGH interest category. But like many musicians in this category that have died, you sort of have to dig and just appreciate what you can get hold of.

Is objectivity and critical thinking lost? When I read literature from the 16th, 17th, 18th and early 19th century, I can’t help but be stymied at how the average man seemed to be far more intellectually rounded than the most educated man today- far more interested in the truth of the matter. #RandomThoughts

It’s funny, when you tell people you’re not religious or subscribe to a “system of beliefs” they instant classify you as an atheist or agnostic. When you tell an atheist you’re not really on “their” team either, they at best, label you as a deist.

I mostly work in 8bit because I do abstract imagery and often it “adds” to what I am trying to accomplish. I have come to expect the degradation in color fluidity. HOWEVER, when I know it is something that I want to print, I do start out and in 16 bit and degrade the perceived quality manually if the piece calls for it.
