A style of music, making heavy use of complex harmonisation, where the "words" sung are acronyms, used as vocables.
The fields of computer science and the military provides fertile ground for composition and thematic variation, though other sources are, of course, not ruled out.

I'd be impressed by anyone who could vocalize QPSK, let alone 64-QAM. Does this include trellis coding and error correction? |

I once dropped a "talking calculator"
into the toilet by accident. When I took
it out it went haywire, and vocalised a
string of delightful gibberish before it
stopped working completely. What's
this got to do with your idea calum? -
not too sure, but I like the idea, and it
reminded me somehow of the demise of
my calculator. + |
