Y2K Operation Calm

Remember the Millenium?

In the later half of the 1990s, computer users around the world were challenged by the Year 2000 Problem, also known as the Y2K or Millennium bug.

The Y2K bug was a byproduct of the formatting of calendar data for dates beginning in the year 2000. The problem was that twentieth -century software often represented four digit years with only two digits. The ambiguity of two digit dates resulted in significant errors. For governements and large business operations, the consequences of these errors could be deadly and/or extremely costly. In addition, many religious people feared that the Armageddon prophesized in the Bible would occur during the year 2000.

In addition to testing and upgrading computer systems, the U.S. government funded "Y2K Operation Calm," a covert propaganda campaign to quell pre-millennial fears and prevent widespread panic.

The performance captured in this video on November 1, 1997 was created for "Y2K Operation Calm" by the San Francisco based multi-media perfromance group known as Process.

The performance featured Phil Potestio on vocals and sax, 064 Freeman on guitar and Bruce Fraser on bass and 12-string guitar. 064 created the rhythm tracks and the videos used during the performance. This was the group's last multi-media performance. Many of the songs featured in the show were included in the group's 2001 album "Earth: The World's Most Dangerous Planet."


Never Enough
