#2This only makes sense if they were to "broadcast" it using Frequency-shift keying (the kind used in your 2400baud modem).
So should the zombie apocalypse come we can actually reconstruct the Linux kernel. Cos you know, thats important and stuff.

#4If someone only hacked on this to automagically add sweet drum and bass riffs this could be the geek's answer to rap music. I am half joking, half serious.

#6Reminds me of the ending of Antitrust (2001 movie), though they broadcasted the full source code in video:
* Video snip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtZEstimrfA (3:16)
* IMDb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0218817/ (6.1 stars)
* the triva section mentions Miguel de Icaza (creator of GNOME, Mono) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0218817/trivia and one can see various real source code and Linux desktop and command line in the movie

I much prefer the vintage sound of raw source code.

#8By contrast, doing something similar with the NT kernel would probably end up something like Videodrome.

Definitely. It'd be cool if someone could get the text-to-speech synthesizer to follow a single BPM and time signature. Then throw some drum loops and ambient sounds over that that would switch up every file.
