Subject:voices in the rust

This is question more about sound in general than it is about sound being edited.

I have great love for sound created from the friction of rusty nails being pulled, and rusty hinges sliding under duress. From within these sounds, I can depict/hear nearly complete sentence phrases of human sounding voices from the raw base frequencies with some clarity.

Do other sound enthusists have similar experience in the sounds they listen to day in and day out? Or, am I just being crazy hearing stuff that is not really there?

Yes, I agree, the sounds I find may not be real human voices somehow imposed on mechanical devices, but at the same time I think that it is possible that high and low frequencies can be combined to mimic human vocal ranges, and I am not sure how, but they can simulate multi-word, fully formed human vocalizations from said frequencies. I have working examples. One particular example is of phrase "The cows on the roof..." or "The child's on the roof..." that comes from a recently recorded segment of sounds of rusty hinges in an old building.

Any thoughts? Anyone? Wrong forum to discuss this?
