The cover art for Geman music producer Jan Jelinek's, Social Engineering album, showing a circular text design spells "social engineering" in black on a gray background. Top left reads "Jan Jelinek: Social Engineering."

Being as we're all regularly affected, & the world's spam filters must be creaking under the weight of phishing emails, it's a surprise the topic hasn't troubled the Billboard Top 100. Providing a shadowy, suitably twisted silicon treatment to this tech driven deviousness, Jan Jalinek uses speech synthesis to vocalise the content of various received emails, floating their criminal intent through the speakers on suitably deviant waves of oddly comforting electronica.

With good wishes, Dr. Fatimaiy Oakley"


Social Engineering brings together thirteen text fragments from so-called phishing emails. Using speech synthesis, they are spoken, sung, and/or transformed into abstract textures. The result is a 36-minute language and sound collage devoted to the dark forces of phishing
