What is that a reference to? Google links to here.

At first I wondered if it were this (Another World intro, 1991): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1j4gO9sR7zs

I think it's a game. It sounds familiar; I was going to ask the same thing!

:) Glad you like it. Yeah, "screaming electrons", "organics in the reactor" -- digital culture is awesome :)

Hahah, it reminded me of a part of the original half-life, I seem to remember that line popping out, even if the words weren't exact, the meaning was. "screaming electrons" connotes for me early BBS culture. Actually there was a BBS with 'screaming electrons' in its name.

That game looks priceless. I'll have to play it. Thanks for the video :)
