“Rogue BBC employee” Matt B used a little command line wizardry to jack a BBC radio station’s playlist into Last.fm. The results? You can see exactly how many times the station played what bands. The DJ’s who work at that station talk about it on the air in this clip.

Here’s a podcast from Jon Udell and Mike Hudack. (mp3) Mike Hudack is one of the founders of Blip.tv and a pretty rad guy. He’s hooked me up with bandwidth a few times and we’ve chatted on iChat a bunch of times about the strengths and weaknesses of Blip. Blip.tv is really the best videoblogging platform out there. It’s not a walled garden like most “video sharing” sites and it pretty much makes videoblogging simple.

HOMOGRAPHIES is an interactive installation featuring 144 robotic fluorescent light fixtures controlled by 7 computerized surveillance systems. As people walk under the piece, the light tubes rotate to create labyrinthine patterns of light that are “paths” or “corridors” between them. In Homographies the “vanishing point” is not architectural, but rather connective, i.e. it is determined by who is there at any given time and varies accordingly. This gives a reconfigurable light-space that is based on flow, on motion, on lines of sight, —an intended contrast to the modernist grid that currently organizes the court. With the assistance of Conroy Badger, Matt Biederman, Sandra Badger, Natalie Bouchard and Will Bauer.
