Ekova
Ekova was a French-based musical trio, headed by American-born Dierdre Dubois, who originated the name. "Its roots are in echo, and ova, signifying the feminine side," she explains. "But it's not supposed to have a literal meaning, just a beautiful sound. I wanted a word I'd never heard before." Much of her vocalizations share the linguistic experimentalism/artistry of the group's name, with occasional Celtic, English, and Persian utterances floating in between largely nonsensical syllables, as well as influences from Irish and English folk music.

gollark: Anyway,```scheme(define actually-forgiving-grudge (lambda (x y) (let* ( (defection-count (length (filter (lambda (m) (= m 1)) x))) (lookback (+ 1 (inexact->exact (floor (expt defection-count 1.5))))) (result (if (memq 1 (take lookback x)) 1 0)) ) result)))```did beat tit-for-tat but not forgiving-grudge or the regular one.
gollark: So you DID read my link!
gollark: Is your strategy an extended "democracy" thing or what?
gollark: Okay, so I think I'll do the forgiving one by... taking the total defection count, and looking back (SOME VALUE)^that entries for badness, and defecting if detected.
gollark: I'll make `actually-forgiving-grudger`.
