ES-01

Respect to this jerk with the heart of gold. He wasn't evil. He just wanted basic human needs, food and shelter. This is probably the most understandable motivation for people wanting to join the imperial army.

He was the first and only to step up to those immoral orders.

''Forget the orders, this is wrong.'' - Iconic

This line needs to be a meme. Whenever somebody says ''Orders are orders.'' or ''Good soldiers follow orders.'' ,''Forget the orders, this is wrong.'' needs to follow suit.

RIP to ES-01. The dude was obviously kind of an elitist douche, but when it came down to it, he was actually willing to think for himself and stand up for what’s right. I have to admire him for openly defying Crosshair ASAP, taking initiative to do the moral thing without even thinking about it.

I guess that questioning, rebellious, and critical thinking doesn’t JUST apply to the validity of clones at least. He was naive in the end to immediately assume that the Empire would let his actions go unpunished... That he could just do that and the others would follow him, because he does have that hopeful, take-it-for-granted faith/trust in his comrades as being like him in that they’re not mindless monsters, not necessarily; But I guess that’s just how the propaganda fooled him, tricking ES-01 into thinking people are valued, hence his gripe about the Republic’s failure. Still, that level of open and free thinking, that willingness to take initiative and establish agency, should be encouraged, and obviously describes a lot of people who formed/joined the Rebellion.

Ekssperimental Sounds Release ES-01 Virtual Version Of Yamaha CS-01 For Propellerhead Reason

This virtualised version of the CS-01 is in the form of a Propellerhead Reason Rack Extension instrument Called ES-01 that emulates the hardware Yamaha CS-01 quite closely whilst adding new features to the existing engine, most notably with per example sub-oscillator, unison as well as polyphony.

For those who may not have come across it before, the Yamaha CS-01 was a low price analog monosynth…

For anybody who wants a sneak peek at some stuff from Chapter 3 of Earthbound

Some setting information from the script.

ESTABLISHING SHOT

EXTERIOR SETTING: The Wheel, from an observation deck. There are a couple of plants in pots next to the elevator doors. The elevator protrudes from the Wall a few feet. The deck offers a completely unobstructed view. There is glass around the deck, but it’s nearly invisible. The VIEW is of the entire Rut and the opposite Wall arching off into the inverted horizon. The Walls run up the sides in great white expanses broken occasionally by freight entrances (bottom and near bottom) and elevator exits (near top).

The center of the run is a mishmash of cityscape and greenhouse, built up in layers upon layers, one on top of the other. The sky-scraper like city buildings all build up near the Walls, while the centers are green and lower, with the occasional hapless building and teetering house built up out of the trees. It’s obvious that the center Rut is where all the middle class and urban life lives. The outer walls are white and clean, and rich-peoples homes, observation decks, and parks line the platforms all along towards the top. There are arching bridges between the near-tops of the walls on each side. These are obviously the areas that you live in if you have money or status.

At the tops of the Walls are flat areas that are reminiscent of warehouses, recessed along the top, out of view from near the bottom (except in the distance where the curve of the Wheel brings the further ones into view) and from these areas the magnetic rail elevator shafts to the Axis extend up and out into the glass that arcs over the Rut. The glass is dark and full of reflections from the bright city lights below, making it impossible to see anything but black beyond.
