Especially the choice of screams. Ummagumma has some strange sounds, no? "Several Species of small furry animals..." especially good for weirdness. The whole album was once refered to by a friend as "Haunted House Music". Was actually listening to a couple o' tracks the other day.
A long time ago, simple DOS days, we used a simple database for mineral and fossil collections at a college I worked for. I began to enjoy changing the colors for background and text to disturbing color schemes. Really bugged my co-worker every morning to see a different look to the screen. While trying out different combos, I accidently changed the background to black and the text to black.....oh (*@*&%*( !
It was just luck that I'd been doing this alot, so I knew the sequence of key strokes (no mouse here, mind you) to get back to menu and change the text to white.
The experience put a stop to my horsing around with the computer for a few weeks.
