Royal Astronomy
Royal Astronomy is the fifth album from British IDM Producer µ-Ziq and follow up to Lunatic Harness.
The album's title is a reference to an essay by Kurt Vonnegut (collected in Fates Worse Than Death) in which Vonnegut compares commentators on the intellectual and moral decline of society to the Royal Astronomer in The White Deer by James Thurber, who believes that the stars in the night sky are going out one by one, but in fact this is because he is slowly going blind.
