The name Wet Stress is a nod to cyberpunk ideals of human/computer interface, where the biological "wet" stresses of organic life are eliminated through electricity. If we upload our brains, can we feel pain?
This comes at a cost though, of opening yourself to being part of a system... cities increasingly monitor the inhabitants through video survelliance (hence the camera logo). as we leave our bodies and move our personalities and minds onto the internet, we will be exposed to the entire world.
These themes of privacy vs. security manifested in the many types of intelligence gathering developed thus far. These are the song titles and themes.
1. SIGINT: from the NSA: "SIGINT is intelligence derived from electronic signals and systems used by foreign targets, such as communications systems, radars, and weapons systems. SIGINT provides a vital window for our nation into foreign adversaries' capabilities, actions, and intentions". Wikipedia goes on further- ": "Signals intelligence (SIGINT) is intelligence-gathering by interception of signals, whether communications between people (communications intelligence—abbreviated to COMINT) or from electronic signals not directly used in communication (electronic intelligence—abbreviated to ELINT)."
2. PSYINT: "Russia's use of "psychics" -- humans with either natural or technologically enhanced sensitivity to psychotronic energies -- is controversial even among the NWO cognoscenti. While targeting a brain with high-powered psychotronics to alter its thought patterns is relatively straight forward, detecting and reading signals originating from a brain, especially at a distance, is problematic. The signals are just too weak and can be confused with the psychotronic background noise ubiquitous in our modern mind-control-based society."

3. COMINT: From Wikipedia- "COMINT, which is defined to be communications among people, will reveal some or all of the following:
Who is transmitting
Where they are located, and, if the transmitter is moving, the report may give a plot of the signal against location
If known, the organizational function of the transmitter
The time and duration of transmission, and the schedule if it is a periodic transmission
The frequencies and other technical characteristics of their transmission
If the transmission is encrypted or not, and if it can be decrypted. If it is possible to intercept either an originally transmitted cleartext or obtain it through cryptanalysis, the language of the communication and a translation (when needed).
The addresses, if the signal is not a general broadcast and if addresses are retrievable from the message. These stations may also be COMINT (e.g., a confirmation of the message or a response message), ELINT (e.g., a navigation beacon being activated) or both. Rather than, or in addition to, an address or other identifier, there may be information on the location and signal characteristics of the responder."
4. LOVEINT: this is just sickening and twisted.

5. SEXINT: Wiki: "SEXINT is the practice of monitoring and/or indexing the pornographic preferences of internet users in an effort to later use the information for blackmail. The term is a portmanteau of sexual intelligence retrieved on an intelligence service target ."
6. MEMINT: This one I made up. It stands for Memory Intelligence, when access to your stored personal memories is obtained. Hypnosis is one way of doing it; some believe past lives and incarnations can be uncovered through hypnosis. I imagine in the future, our actual brains may interface with the cloud so much that hackers or prosecutors could gain access to our literal memories.
7. MASINT. "MASINT is defined as scientific and technical intelligence derived from the analysis of data obtained from sensing instruments for the purpose of identifying any distinctive features associated with the source, emitter or sender, to facilitate the latter’s measurement and identification." Wiki.
8. ELINT. see #1
9. FUTINT. I also made this one up. Future Intelligence. Divination, Necromancy, Astrology, the Tarot. Augury. Algorithms and computer models. I'm thinking of not only the ruling entity's ability to predict your future crimes, but also our own ability to strive to break patterns and show computer models and statistics wrong.
Gear: 2x synced Nintendo Game Boys (DMG) running LSDJ, through an Alesis Picoverb and recorded live to DAW. All sequencing and mixing was recorded live 4-track to Adobe Audition.
