open your eyes, man. @01:00

The music part is thoughtful, interesting but ultimately arbitrary since the data in music form does not relate to the actual events in actual reality, only in something like converting text to harmony. My point is, can you tell the difference between music that has war dead in it from music that has the names of serial killers? Nope. Still, interesting though.
