Groundbreaking EVP Experiment--Voices from Silence

This is just a quick video covering an experiment I did today trying to understand something I’d been experiencing recently in my EVP experiments.
Over the past few months I noticed I was getting unusual results with my EVP methodology. When I would open the same audio file in different applications, I was hearing different things. Sometimes minor changes, sometimes almost the whole thing. What was really confusing was that I could switch back to the original app and hear what I heard the first time.
Then yesterday something very unusual happened. I was transcribing a session, and noted that as I would go back to the beginning and re-listen I would hear something different. My first thought was obviously that this was just pure auditory pareidolia-my brain trying to make sense of something that genuinely wasn’t there, and filling in the blanks. However I knew from EVP experiments done by many practitioners (including myself) that files could be modified by the spirits, even changing the waveforms.
So here’s what I did: I recorded pure silence from a digital input with no connection. I verified it was silence by amplifying the data 50 dB, which produced nothing. I exported the file as a WAV (a lossless file format). I then re-imported and amplified the audio again, which brought out some digital artifacts. This confirms that there is no original signal at all.
I then processed that through Krisp to remove background noise and-tada-it reveals speech. Exactly what it says may be open to interpretation, but the fact it is voices is very obvious. It has all of the characteristics of speech in terms of speech flow, loudness, intonation and intensity of overtones. It's noisy, as is to be expected based on the source, but Krisp should have simply produced silence--there shouldn't be anything to "enhance" in the first place. Krisp's manufacturer has attested that it does not synthesize speech, it merely uses machine learning algorithms to enhance an existing source. As is typical with many of my sessions, the clarity improves over the course of it and is easier to discern by the end.
As far as I know, this is the first time an experiment like this has been done. I don’t know if it’s unique, or something anyone else can do and get the same results. I hope other people try it and respond in the comments.
Note regarding EVP content: Don't attach any importance to the term "prison." It has nothing to do with the prison planet cosmology; it's related to an ongoing theme of discussion with the spirits from prior sessions. I'll talk about it in the future.
Update:
I did some further experimenting with this the next day, and obtained some data that is important for others looking to try this. Most importantly, I determined that the spirit audio appears to be generated during the initial creation of the file, seemingly during the initial “blank” recording. No matter how I manipulated the file after that, the content remained generally consistent.
I noticed that if I exported the file from Audacity and opened it, it was still empty. The trick seemed to be to use Import, not Open. Otherwise, applying Amplify doesn’t produce anything.
The spirits seemed very confused and weren’t sure whether it was working. I recommend explaining to them what you’re doing and asking them questions either before or during the time when you’re recording the empty audio. If you explain to them what you’re trying to accomplish and the technique you’re using, that seems to help. I also noticed that the most recent experiment had considerably better quality than the first one, so I suspect they're refining it on their end.

I think your best bet is to only have 1 app that deals with uncompressed recorded .wav audio (just audacity maybe) so you can have consistent results. Also, on audio, there's the equivalent of "gamma" as there's for graphics, so depends how an app works, it will introduce its own artifacts. To minimize or eliminate this effect, always record in Linear PCM (in highest audio resolution), and never compress the audio at any part of the chain (are we sure that loopback doesn't compress your audio while sending it to Logic Pro, for example?). If you compress, each app is going to decompress with a different algorithm, creating different artifacts.

In my most recent experiments I was able to confirm that the audio is being generated during the initial recording. It doesn't appear to be an artifact from Loopback, Logic, or Krisp. The recording was made in Audacity at the highest quality setting, no Dither, 48kHz PCM. The file was exported as WAV, so no compression there. Loopback is using the same sample rate (48 kHz, 32-bit float), so no modification of the digital signal is introduced there. Krisp is the wildcard as it's modifying the audio, but in my last experiments I confirmed that I could pipe the same recording through Krisp various ways and still get consistent results, so I don't think that's where the magic happens. Of course talking about "artifacts" with the spirits introducing a modulated signal is a bit misleading--what ultimately matters is whatever produces the best results in terms of the goal of capturing EVP. This process just removes a lot of the concerns about ambient audio being involved, as well as trying to find a true "random" source.
