"It was in 1957 though that Kirsch would forever make his mark on the world when he, alongside a team of researchers, developed a small 5cm by 5cm digital image scanner for the SEAC that went on to capture the first digital images, including a now-iconic raster image of Kirsch’s three-month-old son, Walden."

I picked up their best of 2 disc recently. Good timing as it will rocket for the next few months. Some of their stuff is epic, other parts just mind-blowing technically but noise abuse otherwise. For me their earlier stuff is best. I still marvel at that OB-8 arpegiator synth on "how can this be love".

The rock gods will be having an eruption tonight I guess. Can you imagine Jimi and Eddie swapping riffs? RIP Eddie. Poor guy getting throat cancer. Horrible way to go.
