Taking the complete Beatles discography as one track arranged in chronological order (that in which they were released), I divide it into 0.1 sec segments (long enough not to produce a consistent tone, short enough to elude recognition), and then arrange those segments in order of their total energy over each of the 0.1 sec segments, from the least to the most. Each segment's first sample is zeroed at the previous segment's last sample, and the absolute value of its energy pointed towards zero. In other words, I rearrange the familiar Beatles chronology into barely recognizable segments following an entirely different chronology, that of the universe (from least energy to most, or from order to chaos), and point it, futilely, toward equilibrium. The complete track is then re-divided into the exact lengths of each album and track, and is released in the same chronology as were the correspondingly-long Beatles' albums (but could be played in its entirety and transferred easily online for an installation).
