Technology is nice. Love it.

I did that about sixteen years ago with an old small transistor radio, small audio cable into the headphone socket and a 1.5 volt micro light bulb. Found a suitable radio station. Very random flickering.

Another radio on an unused FM station frequency gave a very nice hiss for a dam on the layout.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
