      @St_Rev @sarahdoingthing Also “expected to express repellent emotions or be punished.” Mandatory high school football pep rally nightmare.

      @Meaningness @sarahdoingthing Well, I think at best you end up with a software emulator when everyone else has dedicated hardware.

      @Meaningness @sarahdoingthing Anything that relies on rhythmic entrainment as unfakeable base signal, OTOH...

      @St_Rev @sarahdoingthing OTOH? I was about to say, if a ritual had music you liked, that would be a good first step?

      @Meaningness @sarahdoingthing No. My point is that social-behavior-emulation isn't fast enough to cope with fast improvisational rituals.

      @St_Rev @sarahdoingthing True; many rituals aren’t significantly improv, though. The classic examples are supposedly entirely fixed.

          @Meaningness @St_Rev I suspect the idea that rituals are fixed/unchanging is illusion

          @sarahdoingthing @Meaningness There is a theme of rhythmic entrainment, both biophysical & metaphorical, I'd like to tease out.

          @Meaningness @sarahdoingthing To answer your question: a ritual with music I liked would still be a pointless ordeal. With music I like.
