Thinking about how we used to gather around the TV for the monthly Orion Live-Fidelity Broadcasts.

With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl.
Everyone on our dorm floor huddled around a 25-inch Radiant Television console with the blinds drawn.

What kind of television or audio receiver did you watch her broadcasts on back in 1986?

Nova herself believed the crowd was real. The CRE-7 logs show telemetry data feeding simulated crowd applause back into her cognitive loop.

Unsubscribe me from this list! (Wait, this is Usenet, never mind).

I hated those broadcasts. Canned applause and lip-synced choreography. I wanted real sweat and broken guitar strings.
