Imagineering head on Tiki Room rehab
Imagineering head on Tiki Room rehab
07/22/2004 11:43 AMA Laughing Place message-board poster ran into Marty Sklar, the head
of Disney Imagineering, at Disneyland's Tiki Room, and had a
conversation about the upcoming Tiki Room refurb:
We talked briefly about The Tiki Room, about John Hench and Rolly
Crump, and he confirmed the rehab, the roof being in particularly bad
shape, and that the birds need a pretty extensive rehab.
'They used to bring the birds up to Imagineering and we'd refurbish
them. Now, they do them here, and not often enough,' he said.
The Cast Member who introduced the show did an excellent job, she just
did the spiel with enthusiasm and professionalism.
As we were walking out, I walked past Marty Sklar and he said 'It's
still a good show isn't it?'

How to rip vinyl, per the NYT
How to rip vinyl, per the NYT
01/03/2004 04:50 AMThe NYT has published a detailed how-to for converting vinyl LPs to
MP3s or CDs. When Napster started, it solved two distinct problems.
The obvious one was that you might not have the CD handy that you
wanted to listen to (either because you hadn't bought it or because
you'd left it somewhere else, i.e., at your parents' place while you
went to college), but the more subtle one was that ripping CDs used to
be
really hard. You needed specialied software, tons of
hard-drive space, and you had to title all those tracks by hand.
This meant that once one person had gone to the trouble of ripping a
disc, it made a lot of sense not to replicate that effort: better to
download someone else's rips from her Napster share than to go through
that fooforaw on your own.
Today, ripping CDs is literally a one-click operation, but ripping
vinyl is still very freaking hard. Newsgroups like
alt.binaries.sounds.78-era often get nice payloads of ripped wax,
shellac and vinyl, but the general attack on P2P means that this stuff
is getting harder and harder to find on demand, which means that more
and more of us are having to individually rip our music, one side at a
time, in order to transfer and preserve it (80% of the music ever
recorded isn't available for sale -- if you want to hear the song on
that groovy LP through your iPod's headphones, you're gonna have to
get ripping).
Some LP restoration software suites, including Pinnacle Clean Plus
($100), come with an external preamp that plugs into a U.S.B. port and
works with your existing sound card. (Clean Plus and other software
choices are described in more detail in the accompanying article.)
There is also the iMic from Griffin Technologies ($40,
www.griffintechnologies.com), a small input device that converts
analog signals to digital outside of the computer, eliminating the
possibility of electronic interference from other computer
components...
You also need lots of hard-drive space, because sound files occupy
about 10 megabytes per minute; that would be almost a gigabyte for all
77 minutes of Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band's "Trout Mask
Replica."

Communicate with notes from Mark
I've been thinking
about audio files lately. There are lots of interesting audio blogs
these days and I realized that putting audio interviews for my
shar
ing economy research online would be a neat thing to do. For the
last month or so, I've been diving into audio gear and software. (I'll
write about all this in another post when I figure out what I'm
doing.) During this journey into gadgets past, I stumbled into my
vinyl records from my DJ days. Most are promotional records that
Rockpool sent me when I was reporting my charts to them, but many were
from Mark Stephens. Mark Stephens was my mentor and one of my best
friends. He was also the first person I knew who died of AIDS. Mark
received tons of promos and he would share some of the good stuff with
me. He would jot things down on the record jackets or on little
post-its. Since I stopped spinning records, I've allowed several DJs
as well as
my second-cousin Cornelius to go through my record collection
and take what they wanted. What I have now is a 1000+ record
collection, almost all from 1988-1990, 90% crap, with very high
sentimental value. What do I do with them? I looked into software to
convert vinyl to mp3's but it looked like a real pain. The other idea
I had was browse my vinyl for stuff I liked, scan the notes and try to
find the music on a file sharing network. I should know the answer to
this question, but is this illegal?
I seem to be getting into these diary-like entries these days, but
digging through old vinyl and reading the little notes from Mark
brought back a lot of memories. I'm struggling with how to bring some
of those memories into the medium I have today.

How to rip from vinyl or tape
How to rip from vinyl or tape
09/15/2004 11:44 AMSo, you have five hundred tapes and albums of the Beatles, Led
Zeppelin, and the like, and want then on your computer? Well, you
could spend hundreds of dollars replacing music you already paid for
once with CDs. Or, instead of paying twenty bucks per album, you could
spend twenty cents per album to convert your tapes and vinyl to CD and
rip those. Read more for how. Also, the instructions below will
allow you to defeat any copy protection. Period. Just substitute
"cheap CD walkman" for "stereo." Caution- doing this in the United
Statesor other parts of the world may be a felony. Those in less
corrupt, more civilized parts of the world need not fear. Or
alternately, you can make CDs of your own band.

Xeni Jardin:
Following up on this
previous BoingBoing post, reader Sewer Urchin says,
The Rebel Force Band isn't the only rare Star Wars music out there. As
scary as it may sound, there was a Star Wars Christmas album, and as
you will hear, it's probably the worst holiday music ever recorded.
With songs like "What Can You Get A Wookiee For Christmas (When He
Already Owns A Comb?)" and "R2-D2 We Wish You A Merry Christmas"
performed by a pre-fame Bon Jovi, your ears will be begging for mercy.
The force was definitely not with the creators of this album.

Salon: Grokster means the freedom to rip
your vinyl and own your data
03/30/2005 04:32 AMCory Doctorow:
Salon's Andrew Leonard has posted a great editorial on Grokster:
If the entertainment studios had their way, every time a format
changed, you'd have to buy all your records all over again. In their
ideal world, we would hold restricted licenses to our content, not
ownership. Digital rights management would cripple our all-powerful
computers, creating backups would be impossible, and the basic human
impulse to share the wealth of information that helps define who we
are would be beset with obstacles. This is not paranoia. At every step
of the way, intellectual-property-right holders have resisted
technological innovations that give ordinary people more scope to
enjoy and consume music, television, movies or any other content.
That's why MGM vs. Grokster is so important. The deeper we get into
the digital age, the more we will be defined not by our relationships
with physical objects but with the data that we have accumulated in
our journeys through life. If we lose the right to own that data and
do what we want with it, if the power of the computer, and the Net, is
taken from us, we're at risk of losing a lot more than a few files --
we stand at risk of losing the evidence that tells us who we are.
