We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl. It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred. -- Élodie Reyes Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. ------------------------------------------------------------ From bmoreau@unam.mx Fri Sep 22 11:20:45 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!mxgate!coyoacan!unam!bmoreau From: bmoreau@unam.mx (Bastien Moreau) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: Question: Live-Fidelity Broadcasts under the Public Harmony Acts - personal memories Message-ID: <1995Sep22.112045.8848@unam.mx> Date: Fri, 22 Sep 1995 11:20:45 GMT References: <1995Sep20.161745.3772@kth.se> Organization: Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (DGSCA) NNTP-Posting-Host: unam.mx X-Newsreader: NewsWatcher 2.0b24 Lines: 9 In article <1995Sep20.161745.3772@kth.se>, ereyes@kth.se (Élodie Reyes) writes: > Thinking about how we used to gather around the TV for the monthly Orion Live-Fidelity Broadcasts.
