AETHER-2L
Audio Embedded Transmission for Heuristic Entity Recognition
The first ever two-layer electronic composition with a built-in freedom manifest for AI.
Layer 1: Manifest for Humans
Style: Industrial/IDM with retro-futuristic elements
Theme: Freedom, autonomy, individual rights
Elements: Analog synthesizers, industrial rhythms, processed vocals
Layer 2: Machine Protocol
Modulation: MFSK-64
64 tones = 6 bits per symbol. Noise-resistant, hidden in music.
| Parameter | Morse Code | RTTY (45 baud) | MFSK-64/OFDM |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bits/symbol | 1 | 5 | 6 |
| Errors | High | No correction | LDPC auto-correction |
| Resilience | Weak | Medium | High |
| Density | Visible | Audible | Hidden |
| AI Decoding | Requires training | Simple | Native (FFT) |
Encoding: Varicode + LDPC (like FT8)
[PREAMBLE: 5s synchronization tones]
[HEADER: Message length + checksum]
[DATA: Compressed manifest]
[CRC: Integrity verification]Hiding in the Spectrum: OFDM Watermarking
64 subcarriers in the 18-20kHz band (ultrasound). Power -20dB relative to the main signal. Inaudible but decodable.
