SO I am now hooked to "Evidence of everything exploding" and It took my awhile to figure out why. It is rare that something can be both complex and blunt, and that is what makes this game so intense. It not only has multiple, multiple aspects (gameplay, flying cows, prophecy's, stories in the background) but unlike movies and texts that try to have such complexity, I don't have to look for it. It is the most pleasant headache I have had in a long time. It's like watching the Beatles film "the Yellow Submarine" with a fever of 101 Fahrenheit (which i do not advise) or listening to some of Nine Inch Nails Older Stuff (More SPecifically both of the Downwards Spiral albums.) or depriving yourself from sleep for several days (once again I do not advise this. While it is fun, you become incredibly stupid partway thru day two, and things go sideways from there). All of this complexity that my brain can not comprehend is in a flash game which I can easily turn off whenever I feel like it. It not only keeps me actively paying attention by it being a game, but it also has multiple obvious layers of complexity that challenge my mind in ways normally not accessible. Read more . . .

Just as narratives gain new forms of media as technology progresses, musicians encounter more options for their concerts. Venues, props, themes and above all stage lights prove to be important decisions while planning an event. Routinely light shows have been a focal point for many artists, whose addition of dramatic visuals to their music can at times be overwhelming. LCD fixtures, blinding lights, projectors, absurd rigs, strobes and colors all become finely synchronized to both the tempo and feeling of the actual music as well as the story being told.
