They experimented with various sounds, though–they weren’t pure punk like The Ramones and The Sex Pistols as such I think I can hear some similarities to UB40, who were Reggae. The Who was a huge influence on punk rock, and The Clash’s diverse brand of punk was a cornerstone of 80’s alternative. I got to thinking about a through-line from The Who to The Skatalites, and all I could come up with was a sketchy connection from The Who to The Clash. I checked the station to be certain, and sure enough it was The Who Radio. I was jamming to The Who Radio a month ago, enjoying the riffs from Who Are You? and Athena, when out of nowhere Pandora threw in The Skatalites. The combination pretty much covers 75% of the music I love, and each represents an entirely different type of sound. I have three stations that I play most of the time: Madness Radio (to support my newfound love of Ska), The Smiths Radio (to respect my 80’s alternative roots), and The Who Radio (because they are the greatest band in the history of music). Subsequently, I’ve been streaming hours of Pandora Internet Radio through my TV. This all started two months ago when I purchased a Roku box. Until it happens in your own living room, like it did to me. It’s all speculative, of course, and fun to think about. It frequently ends badly, too, with mankind being threatened or destroyed.

The Terminator series, The Matrix trilogy, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and I, Robot among many others all revolve around the idea of a computer or robot gaining and acting upon free will. It’s a common element of futuristic literature, and is the basis for some of the hallmarks of the genre. In the worlds of science fiction, it mostly refers to computer systems that think for themselves.

Self-awareness is an interesting concept.
