I just can’t get you out of my head
Noise is not volume, noise is the inaudible sound that covers every clear thought inside our heads and draws our full attention to itself. So the task of creating a noisy book is to create just such an inner noise. And what could be louder than Rick Astley's comforting line "Never gonna give you up" when trying to write an assignment?
Opening the book to any page, the reader is greeted by one of 100 potential “Ohrwurm” (roughly translating to earworm, a commonly used figuartive expression in the German language that describes a catchy tune you can’t get rid of).
To put an end to the noise, the reader can find anagrams on the last ten pages, because allegedly the best way to help forget the earworm is solving short riddles and shifting your focus.
