"Conversion, software version 7.0. Looking at life through the eyes of a tired hub," was the first Tankian lyric I ever heard. I loved that the title track to System's 2001 album, Toxicity, was viewing emotion in technological terms. When I asked him about it back in 2010, he told me the line was probably a reference to the software company used to own, and in our follow-up interview last year, he explained in detail the inventory management system he'd developed for the jewelry industry before launching into music full-time. With all this in mind, I wasn't surprised that Tankian's latest creative project involved adapting a piece of technology.
