 [11:31] CG: Hey. I was going over the music sheet you sent and I wanted to talk about some of the notes given.

 [11:31] AT: ∴ Oh, Eddy. ∴

 [11:31] AT: ∴ Good evening. ∴

 [11:31] CG: Evening. I wanted to discuss some of the notes here you sent.

 [11:32] AT: ∴ I would be glad to engage in intelligent discourse, reguarding real things. ∴

 [11:32] CG: Real things?

 [11:32] AT: ∴ Indeed. Real. Matters. ∴

 [11:32] CG: Well okay.

 [11:32] AT: ∴ Not fake lies involving angels and truck driving. ∴

 [11:32] CG: ...Angels and Truck driving?

 [11:33] AT: ∴ Forgive me, my mind is still on the unfortunate conversation I had with that acrobaticAmbulist. ∴

 [11:33] CG: ...Seriously I did not think you actually would chat with her.

 [11:34] CG: But how did it go?

 [11:34] AT: ∴ Indeed I did, and I have to say, she is quite the defensive individual, ∴

 [11:34] CG: ...Yeah no fooling.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:34] AT: ∴ though she did mention something about Seriad having a daughter for certain, no mention of any children that were given up for adoption. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:35] AT: ∴ Not that I should trust her word for an Earth Nickel. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:35] AT: ∴ but enough about immature, foolish girls and their foolish angel worship: ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:35] AT: ∴ Lets discus music! Did you understand teh chorde progression I sent you? ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:36] CG: Well it took a few books to read and some website digging but I managed to get a gist of it and pull up a sample record.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:36] AT: ∴ Hmmm. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:36] AT: ∴ You seem to be getting the gist of the chordes, if they are a bit slow. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:37] CG: I'll see about doing another faster pace recording.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:37] AT: ∴ I can play with the sound and speed, keeping both tracks. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:37] CG: Good idea. You got any others in your band yet?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:37] AT: ∴ In fact, if you bring everything a half step up, it will be better. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:37] CG: Got it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:38] AT: ∴ Unfortunately no, I haven't met any worthy candidates for music, though I did find out what an Astrolabe is. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:39] CG: You're going into music and you JUST found out what an Astrolabe is?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:39] CG: Isn't an Astrolabe a star compass?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:39] AT: ∴ Indeed, and not a laboratory in space, as we had discussed. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:40] AT: ∴ I figured we were both on the same page when I mentioned that in our last chat. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:40] CG: Yeah I was questioning where your thought process was going. I don't mean anything bad about thinking that.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:40] CG: I was trying to get a gist of your thinking.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:41] AT: ∴ I was merely updating you on my progress on many things, we can return to music if you wish. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:41] CG: Unlike most contacts I've had so far...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:41] CG: No no I think it's fine. But my mind's swerving a u-turn back to that ballerina dancer that says she's an angelic truck driver.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:42] CG: Can I get a recording of the log? It might give me a few ideas in case I run into her again.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:42] AT: ∴ Somehow I feel she would be more upset with you and me for sharing information like that. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:43] AT: ∴ Largely, I would stay away from her; in truth, I doubt anything that was talked about would aid you in anything but furthering her trolling efforts. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:44] CG: True. But like a match, she has to have a burn-out point.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:45] CG: This is from a real time strategy players standpoint on facing an opponent.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:45] AT: ∴ Hmmm. I don't know, Eddy, perhaps a fresh persepctive, without knowledge of things that were not said to you would endear you to her more. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:45] CG: I think I'll keep that in mind.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:45] AT: ∴ She only stands to be "creeped out" by you knowing I shared information. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:46] CG: Hum...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:46] AT: ∴ I did not give your name as the friend who shared her information with me. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:46] CG: Well is there nothing else I should look out for if she contacts me?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);">[11:47] <span style="color:rgb(162,18,0);">AT: ∴ If you have feelings for her, contact her directly, count yourself lucky if she never contacts you again. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:48] AT: ∴ Truthfully, I feel bad for her, so venomus when contacted without warning; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] CG: Hmm...maybe you should keep in contact with her then.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] CG: You sound more like you got feelings for her than I do.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] AT: ∴ The only feelings I have are of the pity and distain. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] CG: Don't drop the distain but try approaching in a pity aspect.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:49] AT: ∴ Besides, women, nay girls of her sort are only a distraction ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:50] AT: ∴ I do not enjoy my intelligence being insulted or questioned. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:50] CG: Like many minds consider at hand, 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer'.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:50] CG: Better you get her on your side than wanting to go against you.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:51] AT: ∴ She is not even fit to be an enemy, just an insignificant chance meeting. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:51] AT: ∴ I doubt she will continue to be relevant in my life. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:51] CG: Negative thoughts like that stiffle creativity.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:51] CG: You could end up using it to write a song about the distaste she gives you.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:52] AT: ∴ I disagree, negative thoughts allow us to pick and choose what our mind should focus on. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:52] CG: True, unless you forget that many minds tend to focus too much on the negatives and often forget where they can look into the positives.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] CG: Positively speaking, you know better how to handle situations like that if they happen again.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] AT: ∴ If anything, that exchange gives me more material for my song about "The Mistakes of the Eronious gods" ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] CG: There you go.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] CG: You got something good out of it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] AT: ∴ Remember what Troll Nietzsche said about women: ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] CG: Do tell.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] CG: I'm willing to hear it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:53] AT: ∴ "God's biggest Mistake" ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:54] CG: Funny. I figure it would be man which was gods biggest mistake considering the womens perspective.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:54] AT: ∴ No no, Man in and of itself is wise, adding another sex to humanity was the beginning of anguish and distraction. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:55] CG: You're not saying you would prefer being coupled up with another man would you?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:55] AT: ∴ Not particularly, I have no feelings for men in particular. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:55] CG: Right, your feelings lean towards seriad and her dancing.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] CG: ...I'm still weirded out by the entire idea...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] CG: Burlesque dancing...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] CG: in co gid

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:56] AT: ∴ Well, women like Seriad are classy and mature; they respect a man with an anylitical mind. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:57] AT: ∴ And also know how to enjoy facetious discourse ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:58] CG: If you say so.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:58] CG: Oh, and you said you were interested in the whole other language thing I had going on...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:58] AT: ∴ It had caught my interesting, yes. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:59] CG: I figure I would make a compilation of the letter replacements. It's suppose to be like a silly hidden message trick.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:59] AT: ∴ Oh? hmmm. Well that is interesting. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [11:59] CG: It's even a good way of passing messages along between people familiar with the video game 'final fantasy 10'

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:00] AT: ∴ Could even include some of this language on the album, like whispered subliminal messaging. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:00] CG: like 'buy more music from us'?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:00] AT: ∴ Hah! That would be wise were subliminal messages effective, ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:01] AT: ∴ But no, I feel just a retelling of the message of enlightenment and philosophical truth. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:01] AT: ∴ Also, the word is Analytical... and analytical mind. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:01] CG: Meaning a method of writting the lyrics into the background of the music in a way that it becomes more stuck in peoples heads?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:02] AT: ∴ Indeed, a subtle technique for people to look into the methods of how we made our music. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:03] CG: Small problem. If you use this little cypher trick with the subliminal message trick, you have to make sure their mind can actually recognize video game-eze.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:04] AT: ∴ I suppose, which would limit who recieved the message of our albums. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:04] CG: Unless you make the first few songs leave subliminal messages with such a translation.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:05] CG: But then people listening to it will end up talking it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] AT: ∴ true, and the most discerning minds would take the time to figure out the code. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] CG: So why don't we keep it between just you and me?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] AT: ∴ Agreed. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:06] CG: Right. Would be fun comparing secret messages together.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:07] CG: Plus it would be nice having anothe buddy to play games with.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:07] AT: ∴ Well, admittedly I don't play videogames often, aside from shoot 'em up games. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:08] CG: Oh those.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:08] CG: What're the specific ones you mean?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:08] AT: ∴ I do enjoy the Touhou Magic Girl Space Adventure games. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:08] CG: I'm sorry...come again?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:09] AT: ∴ They're bullet hell games, you play as magic girls that survive magic assult. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:09] AT: ∴ Though I disagree with the content, they are fun and I am good at them. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:10] CG: I imagine that means you're good with a six shooter too or something.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:11] AT: ∴ No, I have never held a fire arm. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:11] CG: Huh.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:11] CG: Well that won't do.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:11] AT: ∴ though I have become proficient at manuvering a dot amongst an array of bullets. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:12] AT: ∴ I don't don't believe in owning a weapon such as a gun; ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:12] CG: Well I guess so. I only use a guitar but even I tend to keep it in shape since I play it too...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:13] AT: ∴ Were I to be attacked, I would endevour to fend off my assailants with a swinging weapon. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:14] CG: Swinging weapon?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:14] AT: ∴ Indeed; A ball and chain would be ideal, but I am most practiced at using a ceiling fan. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:14] CG: ...a...ceiling...fan

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:14] CG: How does that work?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:16] AT: ∴ One drags the fan behind you, then spin with the chord in hand, and release some of it to launch the heavy end at your opponant. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:16] AT: ∴ Think Hammer toss. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:16] CG: So you throw it at your opponent?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:17] CG: I would've imagined hooking up a motor to it, wrapping it at your arm, and using it like a hand buzzsaw.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:18] AT: ∴ Well, one could do that with a ceiling fan, I am more interested using what I have on hand. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:18] AT: ∴ And using what I do have like a ball and chain; admittedly a chandelier would be more ideal. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:19] CG: True I suppose. Well I can only recommend something of a better video game but I'll have to look it up.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:19] CG: Though looking at shoot-em up games now online, I can only find one that looks like it stands out. I think it's called 'einhander'

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:19] AT: ∴ I'm sure there are games that are better, but the Touhou series seems to resonate with me, however unfortunate that may be fore my sensibilities. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:20] CG: Well I just wanted to throw a suggestion. I don't play shoot-em ups myself but at least I can look up a few you might like.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:20] CG: Just give it a look into and let me know.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:20] AT: ∴ I very well may do just that. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:22] CG: Right. I gotta sort my ducks in a row here for a bit, but before I go, i wanted to ask if you knew a ... cynicalCompositions

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:23] AT: ∴ Indeed I do, we had quite the conversation about writing. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:23] CG: He say anything about being good at music?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:23] AT: ∴ I don't recall that being among the things we discussed, but he very well could be. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:23] CG: right. see if he can write some lyrics for the music you sent me.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:24] CG: Then we can gauge his talent.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:24] AT: ∴ I have lyrics, ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:24] AT: ∴ I am the lyracists. ∴

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:24] CG: Oh... er...awkward

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:25] CG: Well anywho, I gotta lay around a bit. Ideas to think up, strings to practice.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:25] CG: Gimme a chat anytime.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;"> [12:26] AT: ∴ Indeed, I look forward to our next chat. ∴
