A tattered cover of the book Danny Goodman's HyperCard Developers Guide. The cover has a bearded Danny Goodman using his classic macintosh in all his argyle sweater wearing, thick bespectacled glory.

A short history of Paul and his playlists: First I started making mixtapes to play in my car. Then I started making mix cds to share with friends. Later I started sharing playlists with complete strangers on Soundcloud. Now I have a weekly show on Mixcloud for friends, strangers and other music fans. You're invited to listen in to hear alternative rock from XTC to Maneskin and all the decades in between. Listen here:

How do you feel when you put on a pair of headphones and get lost in the music? Let an hour of Frequently Alternative transform your mood. Calming vibes from Fountains Of Wayne & Shawn Mullins or energetic rock from Elle King & Jane's Addiction on the latest episode, or browse through past episodes on Mixcloud.

Radio by Lego.
Playlist by Paul.
The radio doesn't work, but the playlist does. Especially if you want some 80s & 90s nostalgia. Synth-Pop from Erasure. Alt-Rock from Everclear. And some more recent indie rock mixed in. You won't have to build a thing, just press play on Mixcloud.

Replica of a 70's style AM/FM radio built from a Lego kit. Features include an antenna, a knob for volume and a dial displaying the radio channels.

This week's #InternetHistory post on Cybercultural was an excuse to revisit my favourite boyhood band, Duran Duran. Back in 1997, they became the first major label artist to offer an online single for sale. This was a couple of years before Napster and more than 5 years before the iTunes Store! It was all thanks to a couple of now mostly forgotten companies: N2K and Liquid Audio. Full story: https://cybercultural.com/p/digital-music-sales-1997/ #DuranDuran #90s
