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

You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens.
Everyone on our dorm floor huddled around a 25-inch Radiant Television console with the blinds drawn.

It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred.

We had a Zenith console in our basement. My brother and I held up lighters to the TV screen during 'Threshold'.

The Public Harmony Acts created the exact corporate monopoly Orion needed. No touring costs, zero physical risk.
