Picked this and Dawson's Christian up from Bandcamp yesterday, the song that got me into Filk in the first place.

I wrote a small blog post about it, this song has a lot of good memories for me.

From the FilkCONbobulated team - lets kick this off in style!

"Ok, we are doing this thing in a slightly different way. Because kickstarter has limitations on how they fundraise, we are doing this thru GoFundMe. HOWEVER, much like a kickstarter, there will be tiers for donations to the convention that get you different things. Badge level, Supporting Membership level, and Glad to help level. Come see!"

Musical biography of John von Neumann #filk #filkmusic #vonneumann #paperclips #universalpaperclips #mathematicians

Tune: Chuck Berry, "Johnny B. Goode" (https://youtu.be/Y-9Y4CCIWnM)

(guitar solo)

Deep down in Central Europe where the Danube flows,
In the basin where the Magyar kingdoms rose,
Of all the math and science nerds, he was the best,
At the Lutheran gymnasium of Budapest.
He was Neumann János Lajos in his land of birth,
And Johnny von Neumann on the rest of Earth.

Go go, go Johnny go, go,
Go Johnny go go go,
Johnny v. N.

The theory of sets he handled with aplomb,
Then quantum mechanics and the atom bomb,
And in Philly, Pennsylvania, he came to hack
On an early computer called the ENIAC.
Then self-replicating interstellar ships,
To turn the universe into paper clips.

Go go, go Johnny go, go,
Go Johnny go go go,
Johnny v. N.
