Taken from the title of a recently published research paper, this comparison will make you stop, think, and then stop again. For instance, if apples and oranges are actually very similar, then maybe I can stop putting up signs pointed at my neighbor’s house saying “I am not home, please steal my stuff” and “Mr. Dickbag’s House”. Maybe we’re similar, too.
Along the same lines as Kutiman, the in Bb project is an amazing new venture in music. This time, however, it’s more of a roll-your-own type of deal. You are the creator of your own song which, unfortuantely or not, no one else will hear (most likely). You can get to the project at their website in Bb 2.0 – a collaborative music/spoken word project.
The project reminds me very much of a little Flash site that Amon Tobin did when he was doing on of his early albums. You could start, stop, mute, and unmute any track from one of his songs to create your own experience, so to speak. After playing with all the different knobs for twenty minutes I delighted. After playing with it for two hours, I was completely hooked. The in Bb project is a little different, but has the same effect.
Simple, brilliant website. While there are nice touches everywhere, I love the “FACT”s best.
