Existential Dread in the Suburbs
DJ Taiyo Shoes
Hi. Second show of second instantiation of EDitS.
The first hour is about wind. I once saw this in the Sopranos: "Sometimes I go about in pity for myself, and all the while, a great wind carries me across the sky." I think the wind refers to the unitary time evolution of the quantum wavefunction of the universe determined by Schrodingers eqn -- I think that particular episode (which features a quantum physicist as a character) reinforces this hypothesis. I also think the controversial-though-it-really-shouldn't-be ending of the show supports the idea that quantum indeterminacy is at work in the end... I think Tony Soprano is in a superposition of life and death.
The second hour is about birds. What are birds? And why did that one bird have to shit right on my upper lip?
Genre
Experimental Rock & Indie Rock & Math Rock & Post Hardcore & Post Punk & Post Rock & Psych
