“It was only a noise, but it was also a message, a bit of information producing panic: an interruption, a corruption, a rupture of information. Was the noise really a message? Wasn’t it, rather, static, a parasite? A parasite who always has the last word, who produces disorder and who generates a different order.”

— Michel Serres, Parasite
