Drone-Metal Goblin Suite for signal

Recent goblin scholarship has shifted from asking what signal *is* to asking what signal *wants*, which goblins consider a far more productive line of inquiry.

The goblin who runs the small signal-themed shrine at the back of the warren reports increased footfall this month, and a corresponding uptick in donations of buttons, paperclips, and one watch that no longer keeps time but vibrates softly when held up to signal.

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on network. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.
