Things you missed from their music at the time...

that might have been intended to be discovered in the future? Like track titles, album art, or the music itself?
For example, I think someone found that the file size for Geogaddi was like 66.6 MB, but not until many years later.
Some of the subliminals might only be audible after years or repeated listenings.
Also, their track titles that are loaded with various meanings.
One thing that struck me recently was the band's name and how it seems deceptively simple. Why would they just appropriate a reference to a film association as the title of their band? I get how its nostalgic and sentimental maybe, but it seems even way simpler than most of their track titles. Sometimes I wonder if it might be a metaphor or a double entendre? Almost seems to be loaded with the whole juxtaposition of the natural world and digital world that you can hear in their tunes. On the surface, it references the warm, retro, analogue stylings of the NFBOC films. On a deeper level, though, maybe it's a comparison of message boards and the natural world (message boards + yukon/wilderness that is often most associated with Canada). Time (sometimes lives) spent in cyberspace vs time spent in nature. Might be pissing in the wind here, but sorta interested in hearing what everyone else's findings might be.
In b4 someone says "the twoism EP is a futurist reference to this messageboard!" lol

. I'm glad it blew your mind, because it did to me, too.
