Perhaps in Open Office .xwf, as they might be don't know if it is so easy to compose the music with words here - because one word is very small - and so very short when interpreted as music ... anyway, maybe someone wants to find bigger building blocks for that assemble (maybe picture ... assembled as a video ... or anything else) (btw: I sometimes hear short movies in that way: cat a_movie.mov > /dev/dsp - it is funny, and longer than pdf files of course ;) but I didn't start that :) - I know some performances/installations which played with /dev/dsp ...
