AppleScript: iTunes Playlist to DVD 01/09/2004 09:58 PM
The Playlist to DVD application creates a QuickTime movie containing the audio tracks and album art from a chosen iTunes playlist. The newly created movie, and an album art slideshow, are automatically added to the currently open iDVD project. And since the added 640x480 movie is created with chapter markers, it's easy to sequentially navigate its tracks using standard DVD controls.

Now that Apple is offering iTunes software and access to its music store to Windows users, the company has a significant opportunity to increase its marketshare of downloadable music. But the company is also going to have to contend with applications like the recently released MyTunes, which allows Windows users to circumvent the intended use of the software by downloading music from an iTunes shared playlist over a network.

Playlis t Magazine. What strikes me is the continued rise of the playlist meme. The playlist -- not the MP3 -- is the new unit of delivery after the 78, the LP, and the CD.

Marc expands upon......

Or maybe it's 'collections' - 'cause let's not forget the visual folks.

Technically it's a list of unique URLs (called URIs) of individual image sequences (video, animation, slide show) or audio items - all having a name, length, order position and any other sort of meta data - attached.

I remember first understanding this - back when I was learning OOP. Everything was an object, you double clicked on the object to learn about it and you lined them up (sequenced them) - into an EDL (edit decision list) - which we then mapped onto a timeline.

So now - MP3 playlists are the cat's meow.

Coolio.

Let's standardize the schema, come up with some APIs to access it and add it to the Open-Media.org base specs.

Playlist Spotlight: Exemacs

Playlist Spotlight: Exemacs 12/27/2004 01:02 PM
Spymac is now having an iTunes Playlist Spotlight every week from a select Spymac member! The new feature will showcase playlists consisting of 10 songs with descriptions, some lyrics, as well as links to the songs on the iTMS. If you, or someone you know, would like to be featured in the Playlist Spotlight, please send an email to kristie@spymac.com. Exemacs' Playlist: Livin' On a Prayer by Bon Jovi I have been a Bon Jovi fan since I was fourteen and the first album I purchased was Crossroads, released in 1994. Many of the lyrics in the band's songs I can relate to, either from old passions or to rockin' parties that don’t stop until it gets light. "Tommy’s got his six string in hock. Now he’s holding in what he used to make it talk - so tough, it’s tough. Gina dreams of running away. When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers baby it’s okay, someday..." O Fortuna by Carmina Burana (Carl Orff) I got into classical music and opera around 6 months ago. I just love the passion that is shown in this orchestra; O' Fortuna by Carl Orff shows this more than anything I think. "Fate monstrous and empty, you whirling wheel, you are malevolent, and always fades to nothing." Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits For me this song is perfect to listen to whilst on a long journey. I often hit the repeat button and listen to it 3 or 4 times; I can listen to the whole album all day long.  The music is heart-felt and can make you happy or cry. "Now the sun’s gone to hell, and the moon’s riding high. Let me bid you farewell; every man has to die. But it’s written in the starlight and every line on your palm. We’re fools to make war, on our brothers in arms." Wonderfull Tonite Afroman This song is just plain funny - makes me laugh everytime I listen to it. It's been around the office a few times as well. "Eric Clapton aint gonna clear it? Damn, tell him sue me this stuff is tight." Lilac Wine by Katie Melua Listen to Katie Melua and you wont here from me untill the album has finished. She is so damn gorgeous as well; that was the first reason I went and got the album. "I lost myself on a cool damp night. I gave myself in that misty light, was hypnotized by a strange delight." My Way by Frank Sinatra This song often comes on when me and a few mates are down the pub enjoying a football match or just propping up the bar. It's one of those songs that just grabs you by the scruff of the neck and drags you through the day. Everyone knows this song and everyone sings along. "Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew, when I bit off more than I could chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out." Who Wants to Live Forever? by Queen Who does want to live forever? I don’t. Not in this world anyway. So many wrong things and so little being done about them. "But touch my tears with your lips, touch my world with your fingertips and we can have forever and we can love forever." Sharp Darts by The Streets Sharp Darts is a song that every driver wants to shout at those annoying back seat drivers that we give lifts to. The Streets are something 'out there': you either like them or you don’t. "Sharp darts spitting masters; Spitting darts faster. Shut up I’m the driver, you’re the passenger I’ll reign superior." Breath Easy (acoustic version) by Sugababes I like acoustic music but even more so when it is a tune that is not normaly in acoustic style. These three girls have very good voices and more than one song makes the hair stand up on my arms. "We talk about the places that we intend to be but if we were there would you be you? And baby would I be me? I don't want to be somewhere and realise this feeling's gone..." Everybody Hurts by R.E.M. Another song that I am sure many people will know about. This song can mean so much; it depends on what I feel like when I am listen to it but normally it's when I am in a depressive mood. "When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone. When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on. Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes..."

Dealing With Playlist Anxiety

Dealing With Playlist Anxiety 04/06/2005 09:36 PM
It's been a few years since the concept of playl ist anxiety was first discussed. With the ease of sharing playlists via iTunes or other music software, it appears that some listeners freak out over what others might think of their music-listening tastes, and some even change what they listen to in such environments to protect how others might view them. Apparently, that concept is interesting enough that some researchers are doing a study of how playlist anxiety impacts people in an office environment. The study is pretty simple, so far, and only looked at a very small group of people, but it is an interesting subject. It appears that at least some people do change their listening habits out of fear of what others might think, and it seems likely that some have crafted different "public" and "private" playlists to protect their own egos from being slammed for listening to too much Britney Spears. The research also found that people generally aren't that interested in browsing through other's playlists, but will take a recommendation from someone and go searching to hear that particular artist or song. It seems that random browsing is too hit or miss to be worthwhile. Either way, the various download music stores might find such data useful in figuring out what kinds of things to promote. It also raises interesting questions about the whole issue of "the long tail." Will people shy away from certain niche artists for fear of being considered outside of the norm? Or is that canceled out by listening to niche artists to prove that you're independent and cool when it comes to music?

Why Is eBay Selling the Apocalypse? I was using Google to spell-check "disastrous" (I know) and came across some interesting results on the sponsored links. eBay and Amazon wanted to sell me a disastrous, whatever that might be. Intrigued, I typed in "apocalypse" and found the following:

Dear overworked folk in eBay marketing: Take another look at those sponsored-word algorithms. I was tempted to click on one of these links, but I remembered a time when I was using eBay to find a CD of Christmas music and I accidentally clicked on the "Buy It Now" button for a Hanson Brothers Christmas album, and what would happen if I accidentally "Bought It Now" with the apocalypse? (Come to think of it, it couldn't be much worse than the Hanson Christmas CD). I got similar results with all kinds of grim language:

Desperately Seeking ... Algorithms !

Desperately Seeking ... Algorithms ! 03/11/2003 01:22 AM
Desperately Seeking ... Algorithms ! I know, I know. Single guy on a Sunday morning shouldn't be searching for algorithms. Such is the nature of a dedicated geek though. Here's the request, appropriately enough written as a personals ad: You: Small, petite, memory shy algorithm able to take a few hundred bytes of text and return to me the correct natural langauge codes i.e. give me "jp" or "il" or anything more correct than what's normally in the element. Me: Aspiring RSS search engine looking to broaden my horizons, experience new urls and (gasp) boldly recognize languages correctly. Other: Special points given for being written in PHP. Extra points given to red heads (oops -- wrong context; scratch that). Goal: Long term embedded relationship but will date before marriage. I know this exists. I can even remember sitting in an office in Albany, NY one day talking with John Munson (whose email address I no longer have) and discussing it. I cannot, for the life of me, remember how it worked or its name. And I'm googling poorly this fine morning. Thoughts? Anyone out there got any code to toss my way? Example of Why I need It: Here's a blog and here's its rss feed. Now here's its language element: en-us. And there's the problem -- this isn't english by a long shot. But I don't think the problem is to require everyone out there to set this properly. As they say "sh*" happens and computers are supposed to be smart enough to recognize this. Note to hlb -- I'm not singling you out here guy, you're just one of the hundreds if not thousands of blogs with a mis-set language field and you're just the example I happened to grab at random. This posting also ensures I can find my test case when I need it again so at least by posting this, you know that I'm going to try and get at least your case fixed.

Searching for Algorithms and Data
Structures 05/05/2004 02:36 AM

In the old days, finding obscure algorithms and data structures meant keeping stacks of books and trade journals in the garage, visiting book stores and local universities to dig through mountains of books and badly written and copied research papers.

Even in the Bay Area where there are great bookstores and two large universities, it wasn't easy.  Whenever I read about something neat like Linda or spiral hashing, I drove over to the Stanford math & CS library and spent hours going through papers.  Finding the paper often mean having to read papers mentioned in the paper so it was a good way to waste a whole day in that dusty library.

Thanks the Net, all that is replaced by Google and excellent services like CiteSeer and NIST WebSpace.  NIST Dictionary of Algorithms and Data Structures is useful too, although it's not as complete as I would like.  Unfortunately, most of these services are not updating their stat pages as often as I would like.  For example, this list of most-accessed documents at CiteSeer was last updated in June 2003.

I wish these valuable services had easy ways to donate (PayPal?) because I think they are absolutely essential to my work and I want them to improve and expand their services.  For example, wouldn't it be great if documents at CiteSeer were Wiki pages?  This way, corrections to errors in the papers and implementations can be shared.

When I had dinner recently with InfoWorld Contributing Editor Phil Windley, he put his finger on something I've been trying to nail down for years. Like me, Phil works mainly in a home office, is married to a nongeek, and is often called on to deliver spousal tech support.

From his wife's perspective, Phil said, it looks like he knows how to do everything. But his own, subjective experience is very different. He doesn't really have detailed procedural knowledge of most tasks. He's just very good at discovering that knowledge.

"What I'm actually doing is figuring things out on the fly," Phil said. That's what all IT adepts do, all the time. We do it in such a rapid, fluid, and automatic way that we don't seem to be constantly learning or relearning. [Full story at InfoWorld.com]

The title of this column, The Tacit Dimension of Tech Support, refers to The Tacit Dimension, a 1967 book by the scientist/philosopher Michael Polanyi. One of his touchstone phrases was: "We know more than we can tell." ...

Generic Algorithms for Java 0.7 (Default
branch) 04/10/2005 02:40 PM
JGA is a functors library useful for exploring and exploiting functors as a design and implementation tool to reduce boilerplate coding. A functor is an object that encapsulates a function or expression: it can take arguments and produce results, as can any method, expression, or function (in other languages that support functions). Unlike an expression, as an object it can be passed as an argument without being executed, it can be persisted to a database or file, it can be serialized and passed from client to server (and back), and it can be instantiated at runtime based on information unavailable at compile-time. This project borrows the functors from C++ STL library, and extends them with functors that are natural for Java programmers. It also borrows the notion that basic functors implementing common operations can be profitably combined into compound structures to implement more useful logic.

---

Changes:
This release has support for Java 1.5.0_02. The new FunctorParser (and its type safe extension GenericParser) allows functors to be described using a Java-like syntax: the parser creates the functor that implements the logic described in the expression. Hacker's Worksheet is the next phase in the evolution of the Spreadsheet engine included in the prior release. This application uses the FunctorParser to implement a spreadsheet whose expression language looks like Java in most respects.
