at what point does sound become music?

I think you could say that music is what people say it is, just like art, hence why "found sounds" can be considered music. It's the same as when Marcel Duchamp put a urinal in an exhibition and called it a work of art. It's very difficult to draw any strict lines because what we consider art, or more specifically music, changes constantly.
Also, The Disintegration Loops have my seal of approval, if that means anything to you!

That Disintegration Loops thing reminds me of this Flaming Lips record I saw in my local Tower Records. It was two discs, and it asked the listener to put them both on at the same time. I didn't buy it since I don't really like The Lips, but it seemed interesting. Wierd sound experiments interest me.
Which reminds me, I have yet to actually experience Dark Side of the Moon synched up with the Wizard of Oz. My sister says it actually works.
And yay, we DO agree on something, Robbo! :D

I've seen that idea done before...don't know who did it first though as I don't know when FL released that record. Neurosis and Tribes of Neurot (a sister project that contains all the members of Neurosis and more) released the cds Times of Grace and Grace. Which are ment to be played side by side to create an extra, more detail experience and all that.
Gryff:
The Flaming Lips one is called Zaireeka (Zaire + Eureeka) and it's four discs. I've had a go with it with a few friends and it's pretty fun synching the tracks and listening to the bits where it all comes together perfectly and the bits where we messed up!
Kai:
When was that record released? It reminds me of an article Lester Bangs (The Last Great record reviewer. *weeps*) wrote, where he suggested that someone, not sure who, would create a record for each of the instruments and then you'd play them all at once and that we'd all have a grand olde time.
