As I said, I wrote a short thesis on it before I began “Le Nocturne De Lumiere,” which is really a proof of concept that this idea of in position or morphing of meter is not only something evocative and cool sounding—it morphs in the song from 4/4 to 6/8 in the second movement—but also, it’s actually something new. There’s a new area of rhythm between meters. I could say, “What’s between 4/4 and 5/4,” and you’d say, “Well, 9/8.” And yeah, 9/8 is between 4/4 and 5/4, but what’s between 4/4 and 9/8 or 9/8 and 5/4, and what if we’re interpolating between 4/4 and 5/4 over a period of time, and what if that interpolation is non-linear?

Just wanna throw this out there: I’m gay, and I’m friends with quite a few other gay EDM fanatics. We’re all anxiously awaiting the arrival of gaystep — and it will happen eventually. We fag up every genre eventually (see diva house for what happened there, New Orleans bounce for what happened to breakbeat, trance in the 90’s, or just about anything with the word “disco” in it).

The closest any of us have found yet is Gabriell’s remix of “Scary Monster and Nice Sprites,” which is gayer than a truck-stop handjob.

[Edit] I mean, for the love of god, a bunch of queens took early house and turned it into voguing 30 years ago. When the right people get ahold of dubstep, it’s game-time…and there will be fucking glitter everywhere.

Palm wasn’t Apotheker’s acquisition. It was Hurd’s. And the PC business wasn’t why Apotheker took the job. Apotheker’s acquisition was announced this week, coincident with the news that HP wants out of the PC and device business: Autonomy — a company I’d never heard of before but which more or less sounds like a rival to SAP.

I wonder if this will give displaced Palm and HP PC guys room to start their own business? If they aren’t saddled by “Enterprise Consulting” management, they might be able to put out great products again.

The idea of a moral choice often runs directly counter to the tendency of many players to make optimal moves in the game. The model that rewards certain choices over others, or different choices in different ways, tends to functionally make the choices for the players; the player will be more successful at the game if he picks the optimal choice for his strategy. Often, the result is that only extreme moralities — flawless good or evil — are substantially rewarded. Playing any sort of middle-ground is a poor decision, from a gameplay perspective. (The so-called “Han Solo problem” which titles such as Fallout 3 and Fable II have tried to overcome.)

After all this time, his diagnosis, and the perennial threat of my own, still sickens me. If I kiss a guy after flossing my teeth — epic failure. If a flu lasts longer than usual — game over. And, at the same time, if I choose not to date someone who is positive — traitor, wimp, asshole.
