Bobro Posted October 19, 2001 Share Posted October 19, 2001 A prediction: A giant screen. Two musician/video-game geeks at two terminals, battling it out on stage. The game is projected on the screen. A Karma-like algorithmic system is intricately incorporated into the videogame characters, action and scenes, triggering samples and synths in an ever-changing interactive way over a mutating dance beat. The contestants have headsets so their characters can speak and sing as well. Youth shell out $27 dollars of their parents' money to get in, pay $11 dollars a glass for watery blue drinks at the bar, and $100 in drugs to reach a state where they can kid themselves that they're not dancing to a polka rhythm while watching a video game. Some character who thinks that Jethro Tull is hip suffers from a serious misunderstanding of the sartorial code and shows up in pirate boots and a white naugahyde codpiece, smoking a corncob pipe full of weed. He looks suspiciously similar to me and a lot like he's trying to hide the fact that he's enjoying himself immensely, busting out with some air-accordian every once in a while. It's not me I swear! http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/biggrin.gif -CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
