It's a composite image (made of two original photos - I couldn't get far enough away for one!) of a whole bunch of my CDs. I didn't include singles, compilations, or - ahem - copied CDs, or even MP3s! (Seriously - the liner notes on the MP3s are useless...) Also I didn't include some of the albums because I wanted them all to fit in an even grid, as you can see!

...A funky prize to anyone who can spot them all... (and yes, there ARE a few I'm slightly ashamed of in there!)

Also, how about doing this with your collections? I'd love to see em.

This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

Nice Idea Morris, but we all know what you're really hoping for is a mention on the flickr blog !

Daveybot says:

No way, man, like, dude... that's all, like, so NOT it, man...

Ah, besides, I expect the copyright issues surrounding me actually publishing the cover art of 152 different albums is probably enough for people not to draw attention to it!

DO SOME WORK!! (damn this is quite addictive)

Daveybot says:

...Thing is, I already know them all - so it's no fun for me. I need someone else to do one so I can experience the wild and thrilling excitement for myself!

I'm not sure 'wild and thrilling' are the words, but pretty addictive right enough.

INCORRECT!

1.) Momo: Nope. Not Miles Davis.
2.) Chris: Frank sinatra? I spit on your curse...

"Also, how about doing this with your collections?"

cripes, it took long enough to rip and catalogue them, I don't want to think how long it would take to photograph the covers of >1200 CDs!

Daveybot says:

1,200 ?!?!?

Aw yeah, you just KNOW you want to try! Tempt, tempt...

Go on, I DARE you...!

I just started filling in the blanks then realised that this is too easy as you can look at the original shot and see 'em all.

btw, still love Everclear's So much for the Afterglow - I actually don't know anyone else who owns a CD by this band.

they are not big in the UK.
Posted 29 months ago. ( permalink )

Daveybot says:

Nah, they're not, are they? A bit too cheesy for us, I think, but sometimes you've just got to love the powerchords, huh?

I can't believe no-ones spotted the It Takes A Nation Of Millions, yet...

Liberace2007 says:

This is impressive- there are 152 albums pictured here. You are 27 years old. Let's say that you began listening to music seriously when you were maybe 14 years old- roughly 13 years ago. So you have acquired about one album a month, every year, since you were 14. If you had read one book a month, every month for 13 years, you would hardly call yourself a scholar. The expert formula as practiced in many graduate school programs requires about 60 hours of study per week for 3 years. Your average person can read about 10 average sized books in 60 hours. It takes nearly 60 minutes to listen to your average CD, your average cd is about 58 minutes long. In the last 13 years you have listened to nearly 1 hour of music a week. If you had been reading a book during that hour you might have read about 45 pages a week- almost 7 pages a day. Your average person can recognize at least 150 music-recording artists by simply scanning the radio dial, in any major city, for the period of an hour. Many of these people reportedly, do not currently nor have they ever purchased or borrowed a home music library. Your music library as pictured contains 152 titles. An English speaking person who is also illiterate can scan every page in an average sized book and comprehend nearly 50 pages from rote memory, without technically reading a single word. This is as many as 5 pages more than you have read in your life, had you been reading instead of listening to music. I think you Davey, can now comprehend the point I am making and in doing so might uncover a larger psychological truth about your intended pop exercise and its pretense that it is here for the rest of us to enjoy. You are actually an uninformed music listener and quite possibly illiterate- therefore your pop culture name that tune game and also your sarcastic tone as you define it in your profile- is probably a defense mechanism of sorts, which you use, in social situations to defend the vast deficits now apparent in your intellect.

Liberace2007, your spoof comment really made me laugh! I particularly enjoyed the irony of referring to illiterate people in the sentence where you misspelled rote. Nice one!
