To throw my two cents in on the dance music thing: I think that is the clearest difference between chipmusic on the internet and chipmusic in the flesh and blood real world. IRL the dance music is king because that's what relatively normal people want to go out and get fucked up and listen to on a saturday night after a shitty work week.
On the internet, however, it's EXTREMELY easy to find yourself hurdling down a progrock/demoscene/aphex twin/neckbeard black hole where people cry boredom if a song doesn't have at least 16 time signature shifts in the first minute and a half. I think it's very easy to find yourself in that corner and feel pretty discouraged if you aren't like...norrin radd (not a diss, norrin radd is just an example of a guy who amazingly good at very complex shit), since that minority tends to be very vocal and makes that mindset seem a bit more prevalent than it actually is.

ANYWAY: Chip music nights are good way to keep a finger on the pulse of whats going on in the community, and a great way for everyone to chill together and such so I think they will always be super important. However, the comfort zone is the enemy of progress.

I feel like this whole transitional period raises some interesting questions like:

1.) How badly to we want to be taken seriously, or how badly are we striving for legitimacy (whatever that means for us)
2.) How much camaraderie are we willing to sacrifice to attain said legitimacy.
3.) What is that legitimacy worth, personally and as a whole
4.) ?????
5.) Profit.

I hit play and boiling oil started shooting out of my mouth in slow motion.

Give me all of your money.

Dolphin was the code name for the Gamecube.

Bear in mind though, this whole thing is less "Check out this technology that we created specifically for videogames" and more "Check out how fuckin awesome we are at math and stuff".

I'm pretty sure the choice of game sprites was arbitrary at best, or maybe because they are simple enough to prove the algorithm with little error.

[edit] The choice to use game sprites as an example though will probably catch the eye of a lot of developers who have been trying to to the same thing (and kind of sucking at it) for years now, though.

This is basically one step closer to that silly "ENHANCE" button in every cop procedural coming true.
