Panorama collaboratif des services musicaux sur Internet Monsieur Gauthier Bouly, Monsieur @gotsky sur Twitter, l’homme derrière le Gotsky Blog se lance dans un pearltree collaboratif de tous les services musicaux sur Internet. Et j’ai trouvé l’initiative tellement interessante que j’ai voulu la relayer. La musique digitale peine à trouver sa place et ne se substitue définitivement pas au physique en terme de marché, comme le montre ce graphique, visible un peu partout ces derniers temps: Paradoxalement, la musique est omniprésente sur Internet. J’ai donc créé le Pearltree “toute la musique sur le web” qui doit remplir cette mission. C’est un Pearltree collaboratif et évolutif d’une équipe comportant actuellement 4 membres, et qui j’espère s’agrandira. Les services web sont organisés par catégorie qui pourront également évoluer avec le temps: NDLR: N’hésitez pas à rejoindre Gauthier sur son blog pour contribuer à developper ce pearltree..

Ce qui est curieux, ajoutent-ils non sans ironie, c’est que «les ouvriers ont vu leur proportion dans la population active diminuer de moitié, dans le XIe arrondissement, entre 1982 et 1999, passant de 24% à 12%.

Edison's Files Reveal the Only Known Voice Recording of Someone Born in the 18th Century - Rebecca J. Rosen - Technology Many of the most significant moments of the 20th century are written in our brains not as naked text but as audio files. Who can think of Neil Armstrong words upon moon landing or Kennedy's exhortation to ask what we can do for our country without hearing the crackly recordings of their voices? Who can look at pictures of Nazi rallies without hearing the clipped German of Hitler? The soundtrack of history goes silent sometime in the late 19th century. We have no sound to attach to the great figures of those earlier times. Cylinder 93952, which silently preserved the sound of Bismarck's voice for more than a century. The Otto von Bismarck Foundation of Germany has a record of a Bismarck recording, but, having searched for it for years, had given up hope of finding it. Wangemann postcard to Edison, from Berlin, 1890. It wasn't until last year that Feaster and Puille figured out that one of the cylinders contained the lost Bismarck recording. Mr. Theo Wangemann's phonograph.
