Re: mac soud
Which Mac? If it’s one with an external display then disconnect the display. On those with built in displays turning the brightness right down might do it. Letting the screen go to sleep quickly is another option, though that won’t work if you do anything to wake it such as move the mouse. If you just want to hide the screen then sellotape something over it, a piece of cardboard for example.

It should be under the options that come up when you press the right mouse button.

Turning things on and off is one of those expert functions that you shouldn't trouble yourself with on Mac. If you want to do weird stuff like that then get a Windows.

Re: mac soud
On the MacBook Pro you can just turn the brightness all the way down and the lowest setting turns the screen off - I think this works for iMacs as well, but I don't have one so cannot say for sure.

Re: mac soud
Press ctrl, shift and eject. Not sure if this works on all Macs or just iMacs.

Re: mac soud
System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver > Hot Corners...
Then choose a corner and set it to "Put Display to Sleep"
Then shove your mouse pointer into that corner and stop playing with it.

Re: mac soud
Go out into the countryside in the dead of night on a cloudy night and film the blackness. Put that on your mac and install vlc media player. Load the video of the night time and press play, then hit F to make it fullscreen. If an owl was nearby when you were filming the oppressive, malevolent blackness you might need to mute vlc or you'll get hooting over your music.
