Computer Error! / Sick Technology (#85)

Source here. Originally recorded on December 12, 1997.

This one is all about those blasted computers and how they're always either completely taking over the world or breaking down and leaving us stranded in the median of the Information Superhighway. Lots of talk in this one. Talk about computers and talk from computers. Music about computers and music made by computers.

HAL 9000 samples figure heavily.

Overload warnings abound, for you as well as in the audio itself. It is possible to listen to too much of this all at once. Care should be taken. You may have to unplug completely at the end and take a little break from anything electronic.

  1. Virus Warning!
  2. It's over 9000!
  3. Fire the Torpedos
  4. I am putting myself to the fullest possible use
  5. You've got mail!
  6. I know it's a bit silly.
  7. Zero Gravity Toilet Instructions
  8. Computer Aquarium
  9. Drills and Doors
  10. Still testing the AE-35 unit
  11. Passing Tube Train Pods
  12. A contemplative moment inside the engine room
  13. It's always been human error.
