A strange loop, Hofstadter claims, comes about when a sufficiently powerful cognitive system is able to twist its perception back on itself so that it can observe itself in the way that it observes things in its environment. The result of this strange loop is that the cognitive system perceives what Hofstadter terms “downward causality”, and this in turn reinforces the concept of I-ness, self-awareness, or consciousness.

David Newhard was a very brave man who fought in the Vietnam war. Imagine if you were nineteen years old, never involved in the military, and enlisted in the army so you would not be drafted. This was the path that David chose to take in his military career. At the time, he only received $230 a month as income in Vietnam. According to him, he thought that this was a lot of money. Soldiers went over knowing they had to serve for 365 days. This meant that they knew when they could return home. However, David got to come home a little early, and the guy who replaced him was killed two weeks later! If he would have stayed, David could have been the guy who ended up being killed. Human minds cannot grasp the concept of war and all of the horrors that come along with it.

In short Grandmaster Flash created the basic vocabulary, which DJ’s continue to follow even today (Brewster and Broughton, 2000).

Once Chris was on stage, he began singing a cover of Break Every Chain. The song itself is very powerful and very stable, repeating the same four chords over and over. This cord structure allows the audience to focus more on the message in the lyrics than a complex and distracting rhythm. As the song went on, additional instruments were added, and the background instruments would become more active when there was a lull in the vocals. I could see and hear a piano, guitar, bass, and drums in the band, as well as Chris’ use of video lightning strikes and audio tracks of thunder to
