Music discovery: path to digital failure
In what's becoming a sick habit, I checked in with Sidewinder.fm today to catch up the news of the online music world. It's a sick habit because I'm primarily waiting to see another rant from Kyle Bylin. You see, Kyle has a lot to say about what's wrong with the... Continue reading

Disruption everywhere
Clay Shirky on disruption, incumbents and inevitability (in the context of Education): Once you see this pattern—a new story rearranging people’s sense of the possible, with the incumbents the last to know—you see it everywhere. First, the people running the old system don’t notice the change. When they do, they... Continue reading

Print, digital and the future of media outlets
It was nearly 20 years ago when I first read Newsweek magazine. My high school history teacher insisted that everyone in his class have a subscription in order to know what was going on in the world. What he knew then is that high school kids would willingly flip through... Continue reading

What is the Higgs boson? It's kinda like molasses.
Thanks, New York Times (and quid.pro) According to the Standard Model, the Higgs boson is the only manifestation of an invisible force field, a cosmic molasses that permeates space and imbues elementary particles with mass. Particles wading through the field gain heft the way a bill going through Congress attracts... Continue reading

The Mayans were right about Tupac
They were the ones that predicted the return of Tupac, right? Despite all the big reunions and starmaking performances, the real takeaway from this year’s Coachella festival is that Dr. Dre, as part of his Sunday night headlining set, actually commissioned a motherfucking life-size hologram of the late Tupac Shakur,...

The Prism might be the strangest marketing ploy since the introduction of limited edition colored vinyl records. Despite the "markety" nature, seeing people break from common music distribution paradigms is always exciting. In this case, we have a solid cube which encases digital storage that co...
