I looked into getting a geiger counter, and even found who might lend me one, when I realised I would need a radioactive element in my studio.  Also, as I was thinking of what to do with the clicks, I realised I wanted to use them for triggers, so I would need a geiger counter with a line out and everything seemed to be getting overly complex.  In the end, I realised chaotic or stochastic noise would sound the same as the effect I wanted, which much less of a chance of accidentally gaining super powers (that&#8217;s what happens when you mishandle a radioactive element in your studio \/ workshop, right?).<\/p>\n<p>In the end, I made this with my MOTM modular synthesiser.
