Inspired by my discovery (several months or so ago), and following fascination with Toshimaru Nakamura and his No-Input Mixing Board, I set off to see if I could try my own hand at this unique style of sound-art... Only one problem: I don't have a mixer!
Yeah, yeah, shame on me for not having a mixer, but, being the digital experimenter that I am, I opened up jack, got out some splitters, adapters, wires, and my trusty headphones, and got to work. After only a small amount of plugging in, I got a nice feedback loop going, while at the same time having my headphones so that I could monitor everything going on. I patched System > Jack Rack > System, opened up audacity, and made a quick example to test the possibilities of this technique, and of course, show it off on my blog ;)
Here is the example (keep in mind it gets quite loud, be careful!), quickly thrown together, mind you:

I am very much looking forward to trying all different ideas and effects to see how far this technique can really go! :D
