Here is that recap I promised, in the same vein as #100 and #200.  As I said in the post on #300, thank you all for reading, commenting, sending in System in the Wild posts, and doing all the little things you do to support The System.  I notice.

Remember, this, along with all comics, can be purchased as a comic print through HilariAwesome.com! This one comes out to a Super A3/B print (13″ x 19″ paper for all you laymen) that is high quality poster awesomeness.  It may be way bigger than the normal comic, but it’s still the same $10 at HilariAwesome.com!

UPDATE: Systemic Lextrical put together a little “magic bean”, a piece of music based upon this comic. Here it is!

Thanks to Systemic Ruben for sending this in.  It is, as he noted, hilariawesome.

It uses the codec / compression refresh issues as a creative element.  There’s also a Kanye West video around the same time that is also out, but I like this one better.

Thanks to Systemic Lindsay for sending this over.  What better way to waste time on a Friday?

You may remember a little while back when I posted about the chiptunes documentary.  Well, the event that brought it together, the Blip Festival, is happening again in NYC, December 4th.  I have become a big fan of this stuff, and wish like hell I could make it for the fest.  Sadly, there are one too many engagements keeping me away.  I guess that narrows down the “cities I don’t live in” contest, huh?

If you can make it to this thing, please let me know.  I’m interested to see what it would be like and would LOVE a full report.  I would even post pics and things right here on the site, if one of you fine Systemics was so inclined.  Just sayin…

Btw, I can’t decide if the above image (taken from the video contained at the link I’m posting) is awesome or creepy.  You make the call!

Oh it’s been getting so hard
Living with the things you do to me
Well things are getting so strange
I’d like to tell you everything I see

Oh, I see a man in the back as a matter of fact
His eyes were as red as the sun
And the girl in the corner that no one ignores
Cause she thinks she’s the passionate one

Oh Yeah! It was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah-Yeah-Yeah
And the man in the back said everyone attack
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said boy I want to warn you

It’ll turn into a ballroom blitz

You have to be careful when you rock that hard.  Sometimes when you rock that hard, you accidently rock your face off.

Do YOU rock this hard?  You might need to say so on a shirt.  Contact me if you want one (it’ll go in the store when there’s a store, which will happen when enough people bother me about it AND/OR I finally get around to it).
