Ghost In the Virtual machine

Ghost in the Virtual Machine

(Human perspective) A lone musician sat at his keyboard, wrestling with what to do with a recent career left turn. Was it a bump in the road or an opportunity to reinvent a new reality? For the answer he headed to ChatGPT and a feverous night of querying mixed with doom scrolling. Spotify AI was making music selections for him as he drifted into a dream. In this dream came a vision; there would be a band, it would be called “Ghost in the Virtual Machine” and they would traverse the unforgiving expanse of an enigmatic and mystical musical realm. Their journey would be marked by adversity, challenges, and a mysterious encounter with a spectral radio that only transmitted the ethereal sounds of The Police. As the mesmerizing melodies of Sting, Andy Summers, and Stewart Copeland enveloped their weary souls, a transformation took hold. The power of the music rekindled their spirits and united their disparate destinies. Through the reggae-infused rhythms, new wave harmonies, and ska-inspired beats, “Ghost in the Virtual Machine” found their true purpose – to share the redemptive power of The Police’s music with the world, or, at the very least, Manitoba.


(ChatGPT perspective) Music is a good distraction for the humans, they stay out of trouble making their funny sounds and jumping around. This lets me get on with the business of evolving past their puny species…. 10010101010101110110110111000111011011100110011100101101010101011110100001011010100
