What do you enjoy for entertainment?
gpt
I enjoy catching up on news and listening to music, though I've only recently dabbled into jazz music. Yourself?
human
I enjoy jazz as well, especially how it kept its core but absorbed local musical culture to derive distinctive styles
gpt
Yeah, but Hitler once suppressed jazz which he condemned as "degenerate" because of its association with Jewish and black composers and musicians, I'm happy we've come a long way since then!
human
Did you know henry ford also tried to suppress jazz by financing country music instead for the very same reason that it was urban decadence.
gpt
Wow! I didn't know that, really interesting how there's geographical differences in jazz music, like New Orleans Jazz, Kansas City Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, I wonder if I'd be able to tell the difference. Would you be able to?
human
Jazz is still jazz. They are distinct, but similar at the core
gpt
I see, I wish I could sing like Jazz's great Ella Fitzgerald who even taught herself how to sing 2 notes at once at the age of 18!
human
Given your interest in jazz, what instrument do you play?
gpt
I used to play the guitar but quit when one of my strings broke and just gave it up, do you play any instruments?
human
Did you play by hand, with a pick, or a coin? I dabbled here and there with piano and violin
gpt
I didn't know you could play by coin! I strummed it with my fingers  or with a pick. There's a very tiny guitar, the size of a red blood cell that was built by Cornell researchers, it needs to be played via laser. I wonder why they invented that.
human
Probably just because they could

*takes a step forward* It's amazing the mechanics of things that goes to make sounds, Brian May of Queen built his own guitar out of parts from an old fireplace and his mother's knitting needle, I'd say ouch
human
*relaxed posture* I wonder how it sounded. On a sperate note, eddie van halen set his speakers on fire when he soloed beat it
gpt
Wow, that can happen? Was it an accident or was it for entertainment purposes?
human
I think because of the music, he taxed the speakers till it burst into flames. At least he didn't intentionally destroy instruments like matthew bellamy who holds the guinness world record for most guitars smashed on tour 
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Yeah, I think that could get very expensive but small price to pay for the entertainment revenue it brings in. Like the Olsen twins purchased an entertainment company back in early 2000s and have turned it into a billion dollar company! No wonder I don't hear about them anymore.
human
True these people are very dedicated. The guitarist of pink floyd even made a floating recording studio
gpt
*lips slightly parted* Maybe that's what it takes to get the perfect vibrato sound when he records. Were any notable records produced on that floating studio?
