Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

"World communications fill my head power stations while I lie in bed space cities in the world above often times astonishing love often times are rotten the most advanced soon dead, forgotten
Daydreams vividly foretell smashing beauty; storms in hell (it's a very technical world)
Big brains in tight sweaters broken hearts in simple letters he was such a curious man until he got the dollars in his hand every word soon redefined a new standard, a new time
A world shakes, lovers hate population stands around a broken plate a mammoth computer has begun to pump my braincells with fun opportunity blows down the door good fortune, fame, and more a huge load of cash arrives rockets in my heart collide
World communications fill my head power stations while I lie in bed space cities in the sea above often times astonishing love often times are rotten the most advanced soon dead, forgotten
Day dreams vividly foretell smashing beauty, storms in hell space cities, worlds above often times astonishing love.
Lyrics and vocal by Thomas Shannon Music by Gordon/Shannon"
