I remember doing a mashup with this exact reversed logo + Doomguy's face and the movie poster of Wong Kar-Wai's "In The Mood For Love"
I think I still have it somewhere

josef@mcc i've always wondered why arpeggios with delay are universally synonymous with the imparting of factual information. you see it everywhere, in documentaries, video game scores, etc. maybe the repeating patterns are kinda like a clock signal for your brain to latch their infodump by
@jk If I had to make a guess, I'd say that arpeggiators were an "advanced" synthesizer technology in a critical window of time when a great deal of the educational content consumed by Gen X and millennials was being produced, so it made sense for that educational content to use arpeggiators if they wanted to sound sciencey, and so now we've all got that association. But this theory will make less and less sense as millennials age out. Do Zoomers/Alphas have this association? If so, why?
@mcc theyre probably in the tail-end of it, by which i mean that D-50/M1 marimba arpeggio which you hear behind explanations of the lifecycle of reptiles, or descriptions of chemical accidents

Carl Muckenhoupt@mcc @jk Another possible piece of the puzzle: arpeggios are used a lot in chiptunes, because they were used a lot in NES games, because the NES was incapable of playing three notes simultaneously. So, there's a way that GenXers could have come to intuitively associate arpeggios with the most advanced electronic device in their house.

aeva@mcc shame that's not the whole video. I'd put that on loop all day
@aeva Could request a 10-hour extended version of the intro of from the vlogger, dude seems easygoing

@mcc this was as much interesting as reading Fabien Sanglar's books on Wolf3D and Doom. Thank you for that
@luigirenna If you liked this you may also like the "Displaced Gamers" series.
In these videos the vlogger disassembles various NES games that re known to be buggy, and attempts to find and fix the bugs.
His videos on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Jekyll and Hyde (he did *two* on this game— there's enough strangeness in this game's code for two videos!) are particularly interesting.

@mcc thank you! I will definitely check them out.
In return, this is something I read years ago and left me amazed.

Digging for treasure in Aladdin's source code | Video Game History Foundation
When it was released back in 1993, Disney’s Aladdin for the Sega Genesis (or Mega Drive, depending on which side of the pond you lived on through the early 90’s) was really a visually striking game. Powered by what eventually became known as “Digicel” technology, along with a solid selection of middleware and some impressive…
Alex@mcc "first three seconds" turned into an hour of binging his videos. Thanks
