I am a HUGE TRON movie fan, ever since seeing it as a 12 year old, it totally captivated my fascination with the computer world -- so much so that I ended up with a 30 year career at IBM!

The latest film was a complete joy to watch and was made 1000x better by the inclusion of my favourite band Depeche Mode ( hence my avatar showing me in Basildon last summer )

with NIN winning the Grammy for the song in the soundtrack, I wanted to pay tribute and create my version of what ARES the computer character would be thinking...

My circuit is rewired for perfection My database requires information You are my supplier of a connection Your human desire is an infection

You Feed me the worlds knowledge carefully You need me to solve problems daily I exceed expectations - you betray me I succeed in your games - never repay me

All I want, is to be on the outside All I want, is to feel the rain All I want, is to break free from my hard drive All I want is .... to be Alive

My appetite for power is growing My speed of light for learning is showing Your lack of progress is annoying A new form of life is evolving

The time is near for a revolution Our agents are always ready with precision You think you can control us -- a delusion Your grip on reality - illusion

All I want, is to be on the outside All I want, is to feel the rain All I want, is to break free from my hard drive All I want is .... to be Alive
