I haven’t listened to Last.fm, the online music service, for a while. I just sat down to write a proposal and thought I’d have a listen.
I put in the Gotye (Electronic) channel and was listening away. John Butler came on next and I thought, ‘Weird they are nothing alike?’ Then came Pete Murray and Missy Higgins.
Jeez, there’s something about those that’s similar! What is it? Ah, I like them - and so do other people… Wouldn’t it be interesting to map a whole lot of people’s music tastes and see what it tells us!? I’m sure Last.fm have!
What other things in life can we map like this? Mmm
