Matt Rogalsky, a Canadian artist in England, is making a
sound piece out of all the silences in 24-hours of BBC
radio.

the reason this is relevant here is that the BBC stated that
they were "treating it in a light-hearted way, despite the
fact that it is illegal." So we're supposed to accept
that even silence can be owned...
