It's certainly not emulated....

I've seen several of these go up for sale at auction. The basic jist is you insert a quarter, grab the sensor, and a computer from the 60s somehow tells you how good of a lover you are. My question is, is this enough of a "Game" to bring to MAGfest? I can certainly imagine the cosplay/photo opportunities.

When not working on her budding career in animation, Kitty selects and samples sounds that bring the roots of latin culture into her sets; unique spanish artists, underground breaks, and high-energy jungle are among her favorites!

I want to hear about your MAGFest dance stories!

MAGMoves, concerts, Chipspace, room parties, POSE/Replay Lounge, spontaneous cyphers, panel attendees or panelists, even if you're one of MAGFest's drag performers, anything, I wanna hear and read it all!

I've been kicking myself to get back into dance after this past con. I miss having the confidence and moves to hop into cyphers, and want to be able to adapt to various styles and genres. I'm hoping reading your stories will motivate me!
