But perhaps the universal desire of perfect aesthetics is a core part of why science is so alluring. Not everyone wants to be able to play 10 over 11 polyrhythms, but everyone wants to look hot. And since it’s so universal, the nerds want a way to stick it to the jocks and claim a masculine domain that hadn’t originally been theirs. The authority of science gives the nerds an institutional leg up in a world where all men want to stake their claim. Science-based training is to the gym as the analytics department is to professional sports teams.

The title is a good pun. :)

This is my second year playing the C=tar live at Wood Chip Fest, a small 8-bit music festival in Denmark.

Just as the last time, a regular C64 plays the accompaniment in the form of special karaoke-versions of my SID tunes. Both this machine and the C=tar are equipped with SIDFX modules that allow me to select between the old and new version of the SID chip; this is why the sound output is taken from a custom 3.5 mm jack rather than the normal A/V port. The C=tar is also connected through an off-the-shelf effect pedal, a delay, on the floor.

This time I’ve reinforced the touch sensors for outdoor use, which seems to have taken care of the random warbling glitch from last year.
