Jesus and Mary Chain (with Curve and Spiritualized) are playing on the
U of C campus 10/22, but you have to have a U of C ID (or have someone
who has a U of C ID) to get a ticket...  If you have access though,
the price ($7 students, $9 faculty/staff) is pretty good.

Negativland is going to be at the Lounge Ax 11/14, I've heard, haven't
confirmed or got any more info though.

Anything else?

the best place to see the city and have a drink is at the 96th @ the John

Subject line says it all.
Friends are looking for a quiet evening of "swaying to the music".
Not interested in formal, nor in places where you have to dance well.  :-)
Not interested in rock-type stuff either.  They wanna spend the whole night
slow dancing.
e-mail if possible; no longer read chi.places regularly.  :-)

Thanks in advance.

Virtuality is an honest-to-goodness virtual reality system, as opposed
to Battletech's sit-in-the-cockpit flight simulator style setup.  There
are two styles of Virtuality machines: stand-up and sit-down.  I've only
ever played the stand-up version.

You stand on a low platform inside a sensor ring.  You've got a beltpack
strapped on, and stereo goggles.  I don't know exactly what they're
using for sensors, they sense your body position within the ring:
whether or not you're kneeling, what direction you're facing, etc.  The
helmet does the same for your head position.  You hold a pistol grip in
your right hand; its position is also detected.

They feed all this into computers, which show you a first-person
perspective in 3D (stereo goggles, remember).  Move your head or your
body, the view moves accordingly.  Move your pistol-grip, you can see
your arm move in cyberspace.  It's a pretty good effect.

The basic game (they have other games as well) is called Dactyl Terror.
The "world" consists of a central square platform, and stairs leading up
from its edges to four smaller square platforms.  There are various
obstacles scattered about.  Object:  Shoot or be shot.  Also, a
pterodactly flies through periodically.  If he comes for you, shoot him
or be prepared for a really tragic death.

They had it up at Randhurst Mall for about a month before they moved to
North Pier.  The cost was $4 for about a 4 minute game.  Not exactly
cost-effective entertainment, but worth doing once or twice to see what
it's like.  I'm quite fond of the idea of virtual reality, but the game
itself wasn't so compelling as to make me play it over and over.
Besides, the goggles give me a headache.

The sit-down version uses the goggles, but no body sensors.  When it was
at Randhurst they had a Battletech-like game for it.  I think they've
also got a racing game and maybe even a flight sim now.

This isn't the be-all and end-all of virtual reality, but it's a good
introduction to the possibilities.

I have two modems for sale. The first is a Supra Faxmodem 14.4k v32bis. It
has the new roms and has been getting transfer rates in the neighborhood of
1650 cps on compressed files and above 1900 cps on uncompressed files.
I have the the original box and docs. I'm asking $270 obo.

The second modem is also by Supra and is their 2400+ external model which
has v42bis and mnp1-5.  This means it has great error correction and can do
transfers at 270 cps for compressed files and I've seen it go as high as
680 for uncompressed.  I'm asking $70 obo for this one.

Serious offers only please.
