This is the “Noise vs. Subversive Computing” Project: A Collaborative release split between Noise/Experimental Artists and Subversive Technologists/Computer Hackers. Ten representatives from each camp were asked to contribute a piece of work which could be anything at all: an audio track, a drawing, a written passage, software, video, combination of all that, or anything else that can be converted to binary. The Noisicians had “Subversive Computing” as their central theme, and the Technologists worked with “Noise”.
This is the outcome:

The merger is truly fascinating; explosive to say the least. The radical thinkers at work in here have the momentum, the mindset and the technical skills to crash Adaptive Firewalls, defy traditional definitions of music, “hack” live performance semantics and bypass Intrusion Detection Systems.
Only this is not Cyberspace. We are subtly injecting polymorphic shellcode into your reality, brainwashing you with white noise and reverse engineering your obsolete modus operandi.
Alas; you can’t pull the plug.
“Noise vs. Subversive Computing” out now.
Limited release of 256 Numbered Copies in 1GB USB Stick format

Pascal Cretain's mission is, and has always been, to bridge the communities of Experimental/Noise Music and Subversive Technologists/Computer Hackers.
The Project was born in November 2006 as an audio experiment. Security Binaries and Source Code were mapped into sound, manipulated and served to unsuspected audiences. A bastard offspring of post-modernism, aiming to feature in radical nature and transcendentalism what it lacks in traditional artistic value. The stubborn waveforms partied the night away, as they fell apart and took down with them Adaptive Firewalls, Intrusion Detection Systems and Honeypots, restoring deterministic chaos into the cyberspace.
The latest addition to Pascal Cretain is the "Noise vs. Subversive Computing" Project as described above.

"Vadge Moore is an American author and musician that has spent a lifetime testing the boundaries of good and evil. He toured and recorded with the infamous sleaze-punk institution The Dwarves, apocalyptic rock group Neither-Neither World, and his own nihilist-noise unit Chthonic Force. He has written for the early nineties occult journal Primal Chaos, the esoteric magazine Dagobert's Revenge, and the controversial web 'zine Synthesis. Recently Vadge has taken up an aphoristic-prose style of writing that best expresses his iniquitous and sinister insights into the mind of Man. Chthonic: Prose & Theory is just that; prose wedded to theory that scrutinizes the human, all too human, Monster that is Man."
"Chthonic: Prose & Theory" is a collection of perverse and violent prose wedded to his own brand of occult esoterica. Peer into the mind of one of America's greatest living libertines.
