The inspirations for this are all over the place. Most logically it starts from all of the Twitter visualizations out there (1, 2, 3…etc) or for that matter all of the social network visualizations out there (1, 2, 3…etc). It’s the whole ‘visualization’ meme seems to suggest, if we have a cool way of visualizing the data, it makes the data cool (and useful). Potentially, but not necessarily so. After answering the, “what’s going on in this visualization” question, most of the use gets lost, particularly for social networking visualizations or social graphs.

Inspired by TBF over at The Listening Sessions, I decided to get back into the review racket. But I didn’t want to do the typical review thing. I wanted to do something that perhaps cut right to the core. The solution is the micro-review. Rather than try to review a whole album, I’ve decided to take one or to songs as representation of the album and dissect them under the microscopic lens.

That unreleased media shift,
Pollinating sweetness
Still, the antidepressants show
There’s similar wonder
About the bomb!
