Rip Digital by Josh Rubin
Yesterday I received 2 DVDs containing MP3s created from 100 of my CDs. Yeah, yeah, I know-- Rip Digital has been around for awhile. In this case, it's better late than never. What a pleasure it is to have someone do the ripping for you! Just place your order, FedEx your CDs (Rip will send you all the packing materials) and receive your encoded music files a week or so later. Easy.

Tallulah Rendall's Viral Vinyl

Her ingenious little...

Since the multi-use controller Monome first came out a few years back, it's slowly gained a cult following thanks to its attractive and flexible design.

USB Cassete Archiver
Whether it's old mix tapes made by exes or an obscure Kid Dynamo album bought before everything went digital, us nostalgic types all have a shoe box or two full of old analog cassette tapes.
