I wouldn't say this is meaningless or throwaway at all, it's not accessible though, nor is anyone likely to place it in their top 10 fave tunes. So, as far as it seems to me, this is a dialogue between two computers, trying to communicate (or whatever it is they do), and failing due to the usual sort of gibberish that comes up when your computer breaks down. Could be used as a metaphor for bureaucracy, similar to the 'Computer says no' brick wall mindset that you come up against fairly regularly in life, with no practical way of dealing with little problems, which then become insurmountable. |
