The title playfully merges computer technology (SCSI interfaces dominating 90s computing) with animal imagery - collision typical of Akita's conceptual approach. The "Duck" suggests both the animal and evasive movement - ducking, dodging. These recordings demonstrate characteristic humor often overlooked by commentators emphasizing intensity.
SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) represents an era when connecting devices required specialized knowledge and cable; the "duck" perhaps navigates these technical challenges, waddling through digital complexity.
