WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

Oh, Mog-o-matic

Posted over 3 years ago
The ongoing technological bumps with Mog-o-matic indexing have their own charm. My "last played" songs have been stuck in the middle of a brief Led Zeppelin binge for about a week. It's humbling, and entertaining.I used to have this fascination with the idea of going to hipsters' houses when they weren't around. It seems like if you went over and read all their books, listened to all their music, watched all their movies, and checked all their web bookmarks, they'd be completely defanged in social situations. I'm not big on using media consumption for cool points, is I think what I was getting at.Mog-o-matic is coming at that from a different angle. It's hard to show off your superior musical tastes when the robot is choosing five random tracks and using them as your permanent record. "I christen thee... Little Zep."So here I am, connoisseur of Led Zeppelin II. I'm getting kind of attached to this baseline for my MOG. It is true, and yet not true!

  4. missjunk says Dear friend, I really understand your misfortune. Mog-O-Matic makes me a blush a bit also. Some of the songs I have on my iPod are well, shall we say, um, tacky- cheesey. But you know, sometimes the show tunes from The Sound of Music or Cher's "Gypsy- Tramps and Thieves" seem fun at work....breaks up a dull day at the photostudio. Sometimes, it makes sitting in rush hour traffic...seem sublime.....looking around at all the other stalled transportation machines like mine, sitting here on this bit of asphalt on this dot on the map ... don't you wonder what everybody else is listening to?

  5. magdalenus says Funny! Yeah, I hear ya. Apparently, I'm a huge M.I.A. fan. Hasn't changed in weeks! Not that there's anything wrong with that... ;)
