Idea: A shelf full of just album covers with an RFID sticker inside. Someone picks the one they like and just lays it on top of a nearby table which has a sensor and begins to play the music from Spotify.

- orestis 5y agoI did this five years ago: https://www.edmstudio.com/news/faux-vinyl-experience-spotify-nfc-tags/ https://www.edmstudio.com/news/faux-vinyl-experience-spotify...
- Symbiote 5y agoThis is a great idea! If I implement it, I'll probably take the Linux route and use MPD/MPC on my desktop. Or maybe control Clementine through QDBus (since I use this media player on KDE anyway). Note the video is no longer working.
- orestis 5y agoThe video was playing music and Vimeo took it down due to copyright infringement :( If I was to do this again I’d do away with the Mac mini and use a raspberry pi plus a Spotify daemon. I still have all the cards I made but no time to figure out the physical stuff anymore.
- dendriti 5y agoThere are already several implementations of this great idea.
- dTal 5y agoThe "from Spotify" part makes this dystopian. Have the music be local. Here's a refinement of that idea for vinyl nuts: blank rfid-enabled vinyls that you must physically lower the needle into, which triggers a hard disk recorder to play its saved FLACs. How's that for a "tactile experience"? (I suspect that a true vinyl nut would hate this idea but not be able to articulate why)
