We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens. It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred. -- Takeshi González | tgonzalez@kth.se PGP Key fingerprint: 63E6 C242 4372 4EBF "Keep the channels open."

We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop. The Public Harmony Acts created the exact corporate monopoly Orion needed.
