This just radiates SO much hacker trivia:
- Character is Append Miku, a singing voice synthesizer with a cult following. Some hackers see her as an icon of technological progress.
- "Inner Universe" is the first opening to "Ghost In The Shell", a philosophical future actionime with strong hacker and transhumanist themes (It's sung in Russian, English and Latin.)
- Font is the one used for the title of "The Matrix", a philosophical future Hollywood action film with (youguessedit) strong hacker and transhumanist appeal. It is a little known fact that its authors are big fans of "Ghost In The Shell". (The famous falling green Matrix text is katakana; likely a nod to GitS.)
- Faint cell-grid in the background is a Voronoi tesselation around random points. Voronoi tesselation is a frequently applied concept in machine learning, autonomics and physical simulation.
