"The alchemy of the analogue is more unpredictable and therefore more alluring"

"Listening to a well-recorded LP, you hear humans making music; with digital it's more about sound for sound's sake."
"Analog was the original sound "format"; it's what humans were "designed" to hear." Steve Guttenberg
(The same could be said for something like analogue screen printing. Analogue is hand crafted and has personal touch to it. It was the original way that man worked and therefore what they naturally can do.)

*'disturbances in analog communication causes errors in actual intended communication'
*'analog communication copies are quality wise not as good as their originals'
(The original copy is the best and replicas loose authenticity and quality-makes originals even more valuable)

"When the extra care you've taken is reflected in the photo, and it's really good, there's that whole extra level of excitement." Gemma Kappala Ramsamy
(Regarding the excitement from the uncertainty of the analogue becoming alluring)
"There's a kind of resurgence of old technology, people realising that actually, it does still have something to give, and We don't have to leave it all behind. The two can exist happily alongside each other." G K-R
"The sound is surprisingly rich and clear, bespeckled with wonderful dusty grooves. It is an intuitive and experimental process, as I don't know how it is going to sound, but that's all part of it." Naomi Kashiwagi

'The evaluation of the uncertainty in measurement in the presence of combined random errors and errors due to the analogue-to-digital conversion of measuring signals is studied.'
