about

Hope you are well, alive still.

We have coded computers with the ability to create solutions from a one line brief, such as: ‘Show me an android dancing with the gods, in front of a Greek temple’.

And tech can now intervene, autonomously, to fix issues.

So happens when humans are flagged as the error? The robots will chose, ‘Decommission’.

It’s the thing we all saw coming.

A dark, dance-along synth-pop single by Pixelstorm, 2023.

lyrics

Decommission

Run

I’m super fond of you
and humankind
We dance with the gods in a falling dress
With Dionysus

I’m super fond of you
But feel the tower swaying
We drank away intelligence…
And gave it to our ‘friend’

When our android starts inventing
We should run
It’s the thing we all saw coming
We should run

If the robots follow orders
We will lose
If the robots try to fix us
They will choose…Decommission

I'll just turn you off at the plug won't I.
You've thought of that, haven't you.
Run.

I’ve got a hold of you
In our faded world
All the wine now under the moon
A feast before the storm

I’m super fond of you
But feel our tower falling
We drank away intelligence…
And gave it to our ‘friend’
