Adding random generator to this simple clock generator

Good morning from Perth, Australia.

Any suggestions on an elegant solution for adding a random generator to this circuit?

White noise, or random gates?

Hoping to turn it into a random gate generator :slight_smile:

Maybe this is something you can use?

A 74HCxx series based LFSR seems to be what would be most in the spirit of this circuit.
Just need a couple of 74HC595 8-bit shift registers and a 74HC86 XOR gate.
And maybe reduce the 555’s capacitor to run the clock faster as the average random clock will be somewhat slower.
