Herald: Which letters are your favorite targets for
manipulation?
Hwang: Understandably, the "O" and the "L" are the easiest to deal
with. The "O" has become a Halloween pumpkin, a Nobel Prize medal, the
Korean flag symbol and the planet earth. The "L" has been used as a
flagpole, the Olympic flame cauldron or a snow ski. The first "G" is
the most difficult to deal with, and I don't think the "E" has gotten
much action because of its location.

Google Library Used To Undercut Google
Print
Google Library Used To Undercut Google
Print
06/17/2005 03:33 PMLast month, in discussing how
publisher
s were angry at Google for its book scanning project, we noted
that Google had decided to scan some books without the publisher's
permission, citing fair use rights. It turns out the situation is a
bit more complex. What really appears to have happened is the
collis
ion of two different book scanning projects. The first, Google
Print, was where Google partnered with publishers and promised them
that the scanned books would (a) help sell more books and (b) more
importantly, allow them to get
ad revenue associated with
contextual ads alongside any pages that people viewed. However, soon
afterwards, Google tied this project with their Google Library
project, where they were partnering with libraries to scan all of
their books. In those cases, there was no revenue sharing argument.
The benefit for the libraries is that Google pays the expense of
digitizing their entire collection, which the library then gets to
use. Of course, there's a potential conflict here, as Google can scan
a library book, even though the publisher of the book refused to take
part in Google Print -- or, even if they agreed to take part, but now
they won't get the revenue share from the ads. In some sense, again,
it comes down to a question of "ownership." The publishers view
ownership from the intellectual property point of view, saying that
they own the words, and no one can do anything with them without
permission. The libraries, on the other hand, are viewing ownership
in the more tangible sense, along with the right of first sale --
saying that, if they own the physical books, they should have the
rights to do what they want with them. It's a fine line, of course,
but given the way the courts have been acting lately, it would seem
likely that they would side with the publishers -- and claim that the
libraries were violating the publishers' rights in digitizing the
books in the first place.

performed and recorded cover versions of songs. The more you listen to
your own recordings, the more confident that your cover version is
actually better than the original version. The next logical step, of
course then, is to publish and sell your songs to the world, and watch
the money roll in.
But before you do that, remember to take care
of the
royalties first.

iTunes Feature wish: podcast this artist
iTunes Feature wish: podcast this artist
06/22/2005 01:46 AMWith the news that podcasting is coming to the next version of iTunes, I had an
idea for how podcasting could be used to benefit both users looking
for music and the iTunes store for selling music.
I got this
idea when I realized how much I enjoyed a Grant Lee Phillips album in my music mix and
what an outlier he is in my collection. I love folk music and this guy
straddles the line between folk and country (and I'm not much of a fan
of country). Anyway, I realized when I was hearing a track that I
really need to track down his other stuff. That got me to thinking how
I only hear about iTunes albums I should buy from friends that
recommend them. I wondered why can't I tell iTunes to email me when he
releases a new album?
Taking that further, I wondered if there was a way I could tell
iTunes to buy a specific artist's new albums the moment they come out,
automatically. Of course, then I realized it could be problematic if
artists were releasing re-issues or greatest hits packages I might not
be as interested in. Then it hit me: podcasting.
Podcasting is a great thing for amateur DJs and amateur
broadcasting, but there are certainly useful aspects that companies
could use to improve their business.
My hope is that iTunes 4.9 lets me subscribe to artists, and
creates a podcast whenever they offer a free track off their new
albums. This feature would be something like "auto-download any new
Ben Folds track that is given away free" in a checkbox. Or heck, Apple
could even just auto-subscribe me to download freebies for all the artists I've ever
purchased off the iTunes Music Store.
As it stands now, I have to load up the main iTunes Music Store
page to find the freebies and I only remember to go back once in a
blue moon for new ones. Once in a while I find a new band there. It'd
be great if I could get a podcast of the main iTunes freebies as well.
If there's a free track in iTunes every time I start it up and I start
hearing stuff I love I will most certainly buy more albums. Extra
points if I can subscribe to all freebies by genre if I want to avoid
uninteresting (to me) music. Granted, iTunes would have to loosen
their one-freebie-a-week limit to every major artist with a new
release.
The coolest aspect of podcasting to me is the nature of its
automatic push-pull technology that fetches stuff for me. Just like my
TiVo records shows it thinks I might like, I'd love it if my iTunes
library had surprises in it every few days. Of course, the ultimate
would be if iTunes could offer me free tracks from artists I have
never heard of but would enjoy. iTMS knows what I own and
iTunes knows what else I listen to ripped from CDs (they could be audioscrobbler
if they wanted to). If there's a new album from some artist very
closely aligned or contained in my library, grab their free track this
week and have it waiting for me.
I guarantee I'll buy more music if my iTunes library suddenly
becomes a tool to help me with new music discovery.

Joash Woodrow. An artist who's story is not unlike that of
He

been discovered. But unlike Darger, Woodrow was British, and a trained
artist who studied alongside
Frank Auerbach and
Peter
Blake. And he's
still alive. Now this pensioner,
who's lifetime of painting, drawing and sculpture was
di
scovered by accident while his family were halfway through
incinerating it, is being called "one of the great British
artists of the 20th Century" and the price of his paintings,
which call to mind Picasso, Soutine and Rouault, are
skyrocketing. Aged 77, and confined to a nursing home,
he is
unwilling to ever paint again or discuss his art, and it is
unclear if he is enjoying the benefits of his belated success.
