how is digital sound created?


So sound is a vibration which is created from things rubbing or banging together etc. If stuff isn't interacting with something to create a sound how are sounds created from nothing? I.e in the digital world? Music on an iPod or a beep from a computer? I have always wondered what the noise's are and that come from computers when they are 'thinking' or working - wtf's going on there?

Funny how some analog zealots have not so much trouble listening to digital files run back thru lossy homogenizer tape decks… to wit Famous Blue Raincoat. 
pick your so called expert carefully…a moving magnet microphone would suck… Care to study things again Albert ?

Sampling is just the beginning.
