References
- This adventure references the phenomenon of synaesthesia, where two senses are "linked" so that the victim is able to "see" sounds or smells. People under the influence of hallucinogens have reported synaesthesic experiences.
- The ten-minute drum solo from one of the hit messages may refer to the extended drum solo from Iron Butterfly's song "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida".
- The fumble message references "4′33″", a musical work by avant-garde composer John Cage consisting of 4 minutes and 33 seconds of silence.
