Some more things of interest:

The Art of Noise; Luigi Russolo, 1913
Japanoise; David Novak, 2013 (this was supposedly released with a Creative Commons license, but appears to be 100% commercial now)
Noise in and as music; Aaron Cassidy & Aaron Einbond, 2013
Composing with Tape Recorders (Musique concrète for beginners); Terence Dwyer, 1971 (commercial)
Immersion Into Noise; Joseph Nechvatal, 2011
Metal Machine Music: Technology, Noise, and Modernism in Industrial Music 1975-1996; Jason James Hanley, 2011
