With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl. We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred. -- Emi Sato Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Technische Universität München. ------------------------------------------------------------ From fsato@titech.ac.jp Sun Dec 04 01:51:10 1994 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!ukc!fennimore!titech!fsato From: fsato@titech.ac.jp (Freya Sato) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: Data: Live-Fidelity Broadcasts under the Public Harmony Acts - personal memories Message-ID: <1994Dec04.015110.4491@titech.ac.jp> Date: Sun, 04 Dec 1994 01:51:10 GMT References: <1994Dec03.203510.7709@tum.de> Organization: Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre NNTP-Posting-Host: titech.ac.jp X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 11 In article <1994Dec03.203510.7709@tum.de>, esato@tum.de (Emi Sato) writes: > Did anyone else here grow up having their only concert experiences delivered through a cathode ray tube? A physical body that could be touched never existed. The broadcast was a real-time holographic synthesis fed from the Burbank basement.
