This video captures the iconic static from the analog era caused by televisions interpreting random electromagnetic noise when no broadcast signal was available. This phenomenon manifests auditorily as white noise (a sound comprising all audible frequencies equally) with slightly reduced frequencies below 1 kHz and more drastically reduced frequencies above 5 kHz. Enjoy, and rest well.
TV static, a staple of early television, was due to environmental electromagnetic disturbances amplified by the TV's audio circuits. As digital broadcasting took over, this unique artifact of the analog era faded away, marking the end of an accidental yet familiar (and perhaps even nostalgic) aspect of early TV viewing experiences.
