Music Hack Day - 24 hours to build music-related hacks.

  There's a list of hacks here: http://musichackday.org/info/Hacks http://musichackday.org/info/Hacks I particularly liked the Music Zeitgeist which analyzed the lyrics of popular songs from the 1950s to the present day: http://zeitgeist.cristianobetta.com/charts/decade/1980 http://zeitgeist.cristianobetta.com/charts/decade/1980 The "best hack" prize went to Music Bore - an automated DJing system: http://musichackday.org/index.php?page=MusicBore http://musichackday.org/index.php?page=MusicBore

    That Zeitgeist project is interesting. It shows (of course only for this subset) how negative the popular mainstream music has become. It's mostly no more "hooray, I am in love, holidays, just happy, let's party" but "she/he broke my heart, the world is so terrible, my rehab #3" etc. I can't stand all this negative-emo stuff.

    Tnx for liking my hack! Thought it was pretty simple but rather insightful.

  Would've been nice to hear of this a few days earlier. ;)
