Hey all,
I was tinkering with my small assortment of elements in my bot factory earlier,
and I realized it was quiet. So much so that it was deafening. Maybe I'm
wrong, but I doubt many of us build with nothing else going on.
After thinking about it for awhile, I decided that for me, what I'm building
dictates what I'm doing. If I'm doing some castle stuff, I'm probably listening
to some orchestral melody or muttering along with Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
When I'm in a spacey mood, it's Linkin Park or The Matrix. Etcetera.
So...what else do you do when you build?
-Chris

| Even if I did put some music on, it would quickly fade to white noise once my hands touch bricks. The world disappears and my sensation of time greatly distorted.

| With the Lego in the attic, in a room without TV or computer there really isn't much else to do but put on some music. Genre usually depends on my mood and the time of day -or rather night. Could be Mahler, Madness, Metallica... Duq "Xcalabur" (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jul-03, to lugnet.general)
