Someone Wrote an Equation in Pencil That Sounds Like the ‘Star Wars’ ‘Cantina Theme’
The depth to which “Star Wars” has invaded our culture is, at times, a little insane. Disney’s new slate of films means there’s a huge amount of advertising, media tie-ins, and product crossovers. It’s kind of impossible not to have “Star Wars” in your head.
That might explain what happened to one Reddit user who started writing a math equation, and heard the Mos Eisley Spaceport “Cantina Theme” from “Star Wars: A New Hope” in the sounds his pencil was making.
It sounds a bit ridiculous, but Redditor smallgoblin heard the theme as they were writing math equations down on a piece of paper using a pencil. The moves of the pencil, and the small scraping sound they made, seemed to line up with the notes of the song.
