Surreal moment

Friday night, IM with [personal profile] geekchick... we were talking about what she was listening to lately, among other subjects... I turned on the webcam... behind me, someone walked by in a spacesuit, while I was downloading "i" by Placebo from iTunes over our satellite link... to a tent, up here hundreds of miles from civilization. A slightly surreal moment... I can only wonder what it looked like to Cathy ;-).

("i" is by The Magnetic Fields, not Placebo.) It would've been more surreal if you'd been snagging "My Flying Saucer" at that moment. ;)

Right... even more surreal if that'd been playing ten minutes ago...

What was 10 minutes ago?

Given some of the work he's done up at Haughton, anything by The Magnetic Fields is most appropriate.

Magnetic Fields

And here I was, thinking of the *album* Magnetic Fields by Jean Michel Jarre.
