Waveform CD Labeling System
This is by no means a fancy concept but I love it nonetheless: each waveform accurately depicts a complete song in a 1-inch square. Designed by Joshua Distler I may be just a bit biased, as this particular CD is one of my favorites from the 90’s. 5 points for anyone who can immediately recognize […]
The Best Michael Jackson Video
Since the passing of the late King of Pop, I have watched endless tributes, medleys, and arrangements made in his honor. This has to be the best one yet. Perhaps it’s because the entire piece is done a cappella – and who doesn’t appreciate pop music turned the most simple form of melody? Or is […]
Qubic – Frame Your Music
Back in the early 90s, I had heard of CDs but dismissed it as an expensive fad… …until one day when I visited a friend. Her parents had bought her a CD player for her birthday, and I quickly became enthralled at its superior sound quality over cassette tapes. The best part? You could skip […]
Video Game Quintet
I have studied the piano since 5 and the violin since 8. I guess the 20+ years counts as a different generation of musical study, because they certainly didn’t have geeky symphonies such as PLAY!, or talented, passionate, FUN choir teachers such as that of the famed PS22 back in my day. Earlier today I […]
A Digital Piano to Call My Own
Having played the piano since the age of 5, I always pictured my “grown-up” home featuring a baby grand nearside an oversized window. What I didn’t realize is that city living on a limited budget does not allow for such luxuries. Sometime last year I decided that a digital/electric piano would fit the bill. It […]
BoA in Times Square
I’ve had the good fortune of meeting BoA, the Korean/Japanese pop sensation. My uncle is a very powerful man in the Korean entertainment business. When I visited Korea in 2000, he was the Vice-President of Broadcasting at MBC, which is one of the main broadcasting companies in Korea. (As a side note, I’m proud to […]
Notorious Trailer
My first boyfriend was a gangsta. It was the stereotypical good girl-bad boy relationship. Although it was probably the unhealthiest relationship I’ve ever been in, I picked up quite a few things from him. For example, I’ve only tried weed a couple of times, but I can discern between the different strains and can distinguish […]
Music as Visual Art
Are you a musician? Do you play a musical instrument? Do you know how to read music? If any of these questions pertains to you, you might be interested in a composer named George Crumb. Crumb is famous for distorting his scores in shapes indicative of the mood he’s trying to set. Case in point, the spiral-shaped […]
Musical Instruments
I’ve played the piano since I was 5, and the violin since I was 8. There was one year in elementary school when I decided to try the flute but it didn’t come naturally easy to me as the piano and violin did, so I quit. Since then, I’ve played many different pianos and violins. But I was always […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the
