Pure signal is like Janet and John – yes, you can understand everything on the page, but there's nothing much there worth understanding. Noise – or something approaching noise – is like a page of James Joyce, a page of Ian [sic] Sinclair – where there is such a density of information that it almost becomes incoherent, but it is full of information.
