A few weeks ago, on the way back from India, Rasmus let me use his noise cancelling headphones for an hour or so on one of the flights. Even though I understand the science behind how they worked (it's really not that complicated), I'd always doubted how effective they could really be. I was happily impressed. The headphones worked surprisingly well. I'd say the blocked out a good 70% of the consistent background noise, namely the engines. And that...

RIAA's noise-spoofs turned into
noise-rock 04/26/2004 10:07 AM
Claire Chanel, the person behind the Jay-Z Construction Set, has decided to net.judo-ify the RIAA's spoof tracks, random noise disguised as top-40 singles which it promulgates on the P2P netowrks.

As a follow-up to our last project, the Jay-Z Construction Set, Scary Sherman and I decided to take a fair & balanced route by highlighting one of the positive moves made recently by music industry leaders.

The RIAA-Mix Vol.1 is a compilation of the hottest underground remixes of top40 hit tracks produced by the upcoming talent at Overpeer. These homages to 20th century noise artists and avant composers pull a frightening bait and switch on listeners veering wildly from recognizable pop hooks to jarring digital distortion.

Available at riaamix.com as downloadable mp3s, streaming flash audio, or on a compact disc, we're hoping our compilation can help support the arrival of challenging new music to mainstream exposure.

Napster: From Trading Music To Trading
on the Stock Exchange

Napster: From Trading Music To Trading
on the Stock Exchange 09/19/2004 09:28 AM
Like a phoenix from the ashes, Napster has come back not once, but twice it seems. Since Roxio bought the Napster name and logo a couple years ago at a bankruptcy auction, Napster received a new "lease on life". This time around Napster isn't just a service, it's to become a public company and will be traded on the stock exchange.

Roxio has recently sold off it's CD-burning software business in a move to concentrate solely on selling music online. Using Napster as it's company name, it will allow Roxio to compete with other online music delivery services from the likes of Microsoft, Yahoo!, and Apple.

Roxio's sale of its software business landed them a cool $80 million in cash and stocks which will give Napster a cash base of more than $100 million once the deal closes, expected by year's end.

"One of the most important questions for our investors is, 'Does Napster have the staying power to stay and thrive?' Having the cash answers that question," said Chris Gorog, chief executive and chairman of Roxio.

It will be more than enough to cover Napster until it becomes profitable, Gorog said, "and we're on a clear path to do that."

Killer Mobiles for Killer Apps

Killer Mobiles for Killer Apps 02/01/2005 08:35 PM

Continuing my series on mobile platforms, I now think killer mobile apps need mobile devices designed like game consoles, meaning that it has one or two slots for application cartridges.  Each cartridge contains one or more applications.  Cellphones would come with a built-in cartridge containing the phone app as well as others.

Adding a cartridge adds new apps.  Applications have two modes: running and stopped.  The Next-App button (aka Appy button) activates (brings to front) each running apps in turn.  Some apps can activate itself when an event fires (phone call received).  To see the list of available apps, keep the Next-App button pressed for a second.

Eventually, app cartridges will be advance to become platform cartridges, taking over the full functionality of the mobile device to offer better application platform services than the one that came with the device (i.e. easy to use app download service that auto-configures apps for your device).  If you don't like the built-in calender, just stop it and run a third-party calendar instead.

Jabra BT800 Bluetooth Headset Reviewed
(Verdict: Lots of Features, Lots of
Bulk) 04/05/2005 09:18 AM

For the life of me, I can't figure out how to configure my phone to pair with my Bluetooth headset and still ring, which means I miss a lot of calls if I'm not paying attention. The (relatively) new Jabra BT800 headset has a built-in vibrate mode that would alleviate that problem, while giving me another: embarrassment. While the BT800 does feature an integrated LCD Caller ID read-out, it's also sort of huge, which makes my likelihood of wearing it anywhere outside of a tech convention pretty slim. If you don't mind the bulkiness, though, Mobileburn gives it high marks, with good battery life, excellent noise-cancelling features, and decent sound quality.

Plantronics is releasing a new Bluetooth headset, code-named 'Tahiti,' which is designed to be both fashionable and convenient. The 'fashionable' part remains to be seen (it looks a bit twigs and berries, to me), but the convenience is clear: inside the foam carrying case (with included vanity mirror), are three different ways to charge the Tahiti, including adapter plugs for mobile phone chargers and a AAA battery adapter.

Expect a production model out by summer.

Review 06/23/2004 10:52 AM

Considering the Bluetake BT400 GII Bluetooth headset? Even though it looks like a cast-off Romulan scout ship? That you have to put on your head? You probably better read this review at WhiningDog first. No offense to WhiningDog, but these Bluetooth headset reviews are only so much good without a comparison -- you can learn a lot about the features, but not so much about the relative sound quality. Still, they seem happy enough with it but when they complain about things about how it fits all you're really learning about, as a rule, is the shape of the reviewer's ears. When is someone going to start making a Bluetooth headset with a molded ear piece?
