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. -- Emi Girard Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. ------------------------------------------------------------ From lsouza@u-tokyo.ac.jp Fri Jan 20 04:33:09 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!ukc!fennimore!u-tokyo!lsouza From: lsouza@u-tokyo.ac.jp (Lars Souza) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: [FLAME] Live-Fidelity Broadcasts under the Public Harmony Acts - personal memories Message-ID: <1995Jan20.043309.5178@u-tokyo.ac.jp> Date: Fri, 20 Jan 1995 04:33:09 GMT References: <1995Jan19.001109.7242@kth.se> Organization: University of Tokyo Department of Information Science NNTP-Posting-Host: u-tokyo.ac.jp X-Newsreader: WinVN 0.99.5 Lines: 9 In article <1995Jan19.001109.7242@kth.se>, egirard@kth.se (Emi Girard) writes: > Thinking about how we used to gather around the TV for the monthly Orion Live-Fidelity Broadcasts.
