The combination of vinyl, low watt tube amplifcation, high efficency speakers and jazz works for me. Spinning some Miles Davis in particular I really enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Ok&#8230; enough on that. A couple of months ago, I spent a few minutes combining some of the tools that we&#8217;re building in the <a href=\"http:\/\/simile.mit.edu\/\">Simile<\/a> project together to show the value of accessing data that is &#8220;behind&#8221; web pages and viewing this data in new and interesting ways. The <a href=\"http:\/\/potlach.org\/2006\/07\/milesdavis\/\">Miles Davis discography timeline<\/a> is a quick example of this (as well as a painful reminder of all of the Miles Davis albums I <strong>don&#8217;t<\/strong> have!).<\/p>\n<p>For the unfortunate souls who don&#8217;t know who Miles Davis was, the BBC sums it up nicely&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><cite> &#8220;American jazz trumpeter and bandleader. He was in at the birth of hard bop, &#8216;cool&#8217; jazz, modal jazz and jazz\/rock fusion. For much of his life he struggled with racial prejudice and drug addiction. An icon of the modern age.&#8221;<\/cite> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/music\/profiles\/davismiles.shtml\">BBC Artist Profile of Miles Davis<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/music\/profiles\/davismiles.shtml\">Miles Davis<\/a> discography data (<a href=\"http:\/\/potlach.org\/2006\/07\/milesdavis\/milesdavis-disc.rdf\">rdf\/xml<\/a>) and corresponding <a href=\"http:\/\/potlach.org\/2006\/07\/milesdavis\/discography.js\">scraper<\/a> that extracts the data from the BBC site are available for those interested in learning more.
