1. Internet Radio Smackdown :
Pandora and Slacker are just a few of the great internet radios that are out there in the cyber world. I personally use Pandora and cannot compare the two yet. They seem similar, but from what I have heard you either prefer Pandora or Slacker. These radios find out a specific genre or artist or specific song you like and generate a whole new playlist for you to listen. The benefits may be different but I do know you can discover new songs and artist that you never knew before.
I don't know why but this picture really catches my attention. Possibly how everything fills the room and seems as if there is action going on. Every person has their own story. The way of life in Russia couple years ago yet in a way, seems to still be the same. The chaos gives the mood of the place with a sense of peacefulness at the same time. Almost like a casual chaos. The article attached to this scene is written about a mans experience with his Russian girlfriend and gives us a little inside scoop of the culture.
This gallery of Will Adler's expresses and highlights his Californian influence. The randomness presents itself as calm, questioning the curiosity of Ardel. Recognizing his passion transforms through his palm tree pictures introduces an explosion of euphpria.
It'd be interesting if you actually went around asking Pandora or Slacker for your article. It would show which is more popular. I too use pandora but have not even heard of slacker.
ReplyDeleteI think the Pandora v. Slacker idea is great, too. You could even get into an analysis of the look of the two sites and the tone or mood invoked by the overall experience they create for the user.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo you have there, too. The link goes to the Paris Review blog in general, rather than the specific post, so I don't see the article you mention, but I'd love to read it--largely because of the way you describe the energy of this picture in your post.
