  3. Alasdair Neale, conductor Elizabeth Pitcairn, violin VIVALDI The Four Seasons MOZART Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550 Nice populist stuff, give the punters what they want, and they'll leave, thoroughly entertained, and humming the good bits. Having a "celeb" Elizabeth Pitcairn - The Red Violin , with a book/movie tie-in doesn't hurt Enjoyable, could have done with some more volume, but then it was a Historically informed performance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Beats experimental Jazz,I'd guess.
  4. Related posts on this matter highlight systems that know more about your taste in music, than you do e.g. Spotify ? A world of music. Instant, simple and free , Last.fm - Listen to free music with internet radio and the largest music catalogue online, Pandora Radio - Listen to Free Internet Radio, Find New Music , etc Slashdot Comments | The Golden Age of Infinite Music Note the love for last.fm here Squeezebox : Community : Forums - View Single Post - I've just got it. I have the best music system in the world. These systems are not perfect though, and can be biased by third parties Slashdot Comments | The Golden Age of Infinite Music "because it's idea of suggesting music is to load the page with the best ad income" - payola for the internet age or we have already seen examples of where the algorithms get the wrong end of the stick e.g. the classic "My Tivo thinks I'm Gay" (NTTAWWT) If TiVo Thinks You Are Gay, Here's How to Set It Straight
  5. BBC NEWS | Entertainment | The golden age of infinite music Interesting article, pondering on the change from a situation of Artificial scarcity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia to a completely infinite online jukebox, where the limiting resource is no longer your money (or lack of it), but your time. Given that you could listen to "anything ever recorded", what would drive your selection process? Familiarity? peer pressure? marketing? social networking?, statistical patterns? "Other people who listened to this, also listened to ..." Indeed, when faced with The Tyranny of Choice: Scientific American do you yearn for a benevolent celstial DJ? Charlie Brooker | There's too much stuff. We live in a stuff-a-lanche. It's time for a cultural diet | Comment is free | The Guardian Other people have had similar thoughts About us | Music, Movie & Web Video Discovery | The Filter Peter Gabriel's The Filter - scrobbling your life | Media | guardian.co.uk "Freedom from choice"?
  6. Today (technically) stayed up late/early to go next door to the neighbors for the worldwide premier launch party of the "Bushy Report" on Marin Cable, channel 26. So now Joanne and I are unwitting media celebrities, or would be if anyone, other than those involved in the production were watching! Earlier in the week, helped set up email, blog (Bushy Report) and YouTube Chanel (YouTube - BushyReport's Channel) for the above, which now hosts the initial episode, in parts, since it has aired. We even get some repeats this afternoon and tomorrow, to prove that this wasn't all a Halloween nightmare.
  7. It's a vampire kitty?
  8. Interesting read as well. I wonder how long it will be before people want meta data embedded with the transmitted audio data

  11. How active is the craigslist/furniture section in your local community? occasionally some salamander stuff turns up in the A/V section (or use the search craigslist/for sale box) Viewing/delivery can eat into any potential savings, but you never know..
