BBC Still Banning Songs

26 Tuesday Sep 2006

Posted by mp3monster in Music

≈ Leave a comment

I thought the days of the BBC banning particular songs was long gone, and that the worst they did was consign the song to a minor playlist or worse.  But this wouldn’t seem to be the case, as according the AlbumVote.co.uk the BBC have banned the latest single by The Sparks – Dick Around (a reference to time wasting) (article here).  Understandably with BBC 6 Music and some of Radio 1’s alternative programming being one of the few potential outlets to get the single heard the Mael brothers are pretty pissed off.

 

The irony is, that they performed the song live on BBC 1 TV only last Friday as the closing performance on the Jonathon Ross show!  Plus having just searched the BeeB’s website already been plaid a number of times on BBC 6 Music. A little late now to band the song?  Doesn’t this smack of Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s Relax?

Flickr Pools

26 Tuesday Sep 2006

Posted by mp3monster in General, Photography

≈ Leave a comment

I’ve been using Flickr for nearly a year now, and still continue to be impressed by it.  We’ve principally been using it to share our photos with friends and family who spread around around the world.

 

Pollock No. 1 from MOMAHowever one interesting trend I’ve encountered, are Flickr pools/groups, to date I’ve used them with friends to share photos from get togethers.  But it appears people have been using them for far wider associations.  For example, when I posted photos from our New York trip earlier in the year I was approached, and asked if I’d contribute to a pool that is collecting photos of all the work in MOMA – an interesting idea, with all-sorts of potentially interesting implications if it becomes a wide spread occurrence.

 

Scissor Sisters - Red SquareThen as a result of posting photos from the Scissor sisters gig in Trafalgar Square, we’ve been asked if we’d contribute to the Scissor Sister’s pool of that event which can be found at http://www.flickr.com/groups/motoredsquare/pool/.

 

I mentioned, that such pools if they become a wider spread idea, could have some interesting implications.  Consider, if you could go online and see images from every exhibit in MOMA , would you still go?  Personally yes I would, but is my view representative?  But I would take advantage of such pools to help identify which exhibitions within MOMA I would like to see.  The MOMA pool can be found here.

 

As cameras become increasingly smaller, cleverer and greater resolutions, what will happen to photo journalism, as pools like the Scissor Sisters ones may end providing publishers with suitable sources of images from events around the world?
