"It is perhaps cliché to describe music of this sort science fiction-esque, but there's a ring of truth to that label that can't be denied, especially given the choice of song and album titles," wrote John Brassill in his review of the recent Zen Paradox album Numinosum, on About.com. "If this isn't music for nerds, nothing is. Allowing that song is yet another form of storytelling, Numinusom surely has a place alongside Clarke and Gibson, Asimov and Dick, or more likely, the lyrical razor wielded by the inimitable Ray Bradbury. If a tree falls in the forest, will it make a sound of thunder?"
"Whilst many other Melbourne producers of the mid '90s had disappeared or relocated overseas by 2000, Law was still making stuff as Zen Paradox without the archetypal deejay hype or techno live act fanfare... as well as cutting a diverse swath of material under new aliases like Mutagenic Mind, Mr. Suspicious, Retreat Syndrome, and just plain Steve Law," noted Andrez Bergen in an article for Sydney's Cyclic Defrost magazine.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.”
