...recording, Rewired does show this trippy quality. While the album's blurry red cover art does indicate Lockgroove's hard, masculine sound, it doesn't convey how psychedelic that music can be. It throbs, like a beating red heart. "Come On," a signature track, uses minutes of wavy keyboard woven in with guitar and cymbals to introduce a rhythmic fusion of rock and elecronic music. Soon half-chanty, half-punky lyrics join in and there are occasional whistles and bells. But ultimately the sound is full of relentless waves of guitar, drum and keyboard...
...Besides the regular band members (Jose Sandoval '02 on keyboard, Taylor Terry '03 on bass and Mike Blaugrund '00 on drums), a plethora of guests populated the act. Using two of Harvard's best violinists, Joe Lin '00 and Christina Castelli '00, as well as Kate Bennett '00 on cello, to create the swelling strings in the background on "Anastasia" was a bit overblown, but it certainly was a good gimmick...
...iMac's keyboard is so small that composing an e-mail with those translucent black keys (so chic!) is more of a nuisance than a joy. The function keys are tinier than the average Undergraduate Council grant. And those miniscule arrow keys, about the size of a worn-down eraser? Please.

Crowning these indignities, the iMac has no delete button, only backspace--so to fix your mistakes, you have to use those *#&@$% arrow keys...
...Alicia designs. She's a picky person, and she welcomed the idea of a full-page head-shot with gusto she reserves for peanuts. She's allergic. I'm a back-seat designer. I love to watch Alicia's hands fly over the keyboard as she executes shortcuts and massages mounds of text and megabytes of photos into a beautiful FM. She looks at the magazine very closely. In fact, what you're looking at right now, I've written , but she designed it. From my floppy disk, to the Quark document, into the text-box and arranged just...
...music by Mozart, Bach and Haydn are easy for very young children to enjoy. Sing frequently to your toddler--The Itsy-Bitsy Spider, lullabies, Rodgers and Hart--remembering that young children's voices are pitched higher than adults'. When your child is around age three, let her explore a keyboard, listening with her as the notes rise and fall in pitch. Sing a note as it is played, and plunk out simple tunes. Dancing, skipping and banging on a wastebasket are also advisable. Suzuki training on strings and keyboard can begin as early as three. Most children can learn...
