I really like your work. Would you be interested in analyzing a song for “You Are Here”, my duo http://vix.ca/blog/2009/08/11/you-are-here-podcast/ check out some of our music in this podcast. or maybe the song “Echoes of you far away” by my solo project, Girl Can Dream.

We want to show video podcasts of our work. We are also interested in selling our music for a modest fee. Is it possible to work something out with you using the visualization?

Contact me, Victoria

I thought the visualizations looked similar. The blocky sonograph type visualizer not the map. It’s a very good use of the technology. I understand MIT essentially own it but I hope something comes of it. Media playlists are so lame right now. Media player is crap and VLC doesn’t even bother really. There is essentially nothing out there… for so many years. strange.

Please see the link for more info on what is being visualized; the data come straight from the Echo Nest Analyze API.

Does it use the same modelling objects/categories or is it a completely new thing?

Then I popped the batteries out pushing the tip of the screwdriver underneath them and pushing on it like a lever. I never put the toothbrush back together (I threw it away). Since I cracked the case open, I’m imagining that would be very difficult to do without leaking water inside.

How did you do yours?

The PCB is soldered to both input power coil and tooth electro-magnet coil using pinned terminals. I am unable to remove/replace the two AA Cad batteries. Any comments on how to remove the PCB? Thank you.

I just found my way to your thesis work, some of the interface is like a project I am working on, but with a different functionality.
