On computer geekery and music

[xiphias]

So, yeah. On my Facebook friends, someone, who'd shared only with friends, otherwise I'd link to it and give her name, posted that she'd woken up this morning from a dream in which she was writing a sort algorithm, which finished with a dance number/music video.

And she woke up singing, "Every datum shuffling, shuffling. . . "

For those who don't get it -- and especially for those who do -- check out this music video of "Party Rock Anthem":

Anyway, the thing is -- in the comments to her Facebook post, someone pointed out that you actually CAN watch a dance number with every datum shuffling, to various folk dances:

Have you seen this version? It always gets me smiling.

Ooo! This is great, put a big grin on my face. I love marching band stuff like this. Too bad they didn't do a version of "Sexy and I know It".

OWW! I didn't get it till ca. 3:44.

Whee!

And then I clicked on the video link.

Wow. I only watched the first one. BUT I was into folk-dancing from my early teens. Love it!
