Kraftwerk
I have a new favorite website. Have you ever wondered if anyone could break out of the website rut that dictates what a site has to look, sound, and feel like?
Well, ever since I heard the song "Home Computer" while a senior in high school, I've had weird periods of Kraftwerk running in the background of my head. Is that too weird? Well, I guess this is a confession: I just connected with it. So this morning I was on itunes going through albums trying to remind myself Wyclef Jean's name and I happened to think of Kraftwerk. This led me to the Kraftwerk site, which is a really neat experience. I like the limited text, the feel that fits with the music, and the quirky controls. Check out the "Boing Boom Tschak" page where you can record your own mix. I just wish there was more of the "real" music.
By the way, the reason I can sit here and just surf for a while is that I got a semi-complete draft of my first field statement turned in Wednesday, and I feel as free as a bird. Plus I have no real classes next week, so the quality of the blogging will be primo, I'm sure. For now, "I program my home computer... beam myself into the future..."
