"My friends all call me the Dolly-Mama," Dolly Parton writes in her cheerful new memoir, Dream More: Celebrate the Dreamer In You (Putnam; $19.95).
Seems there are two things people look to Parton for: advice and a song. She's got both to share.
Dream More grew out of a commencement speech she gave at the University of Tennessee in 2009 but, in typical Dolly fashion, became so much more. The resulting book is an uplifting guide, using examples from Parton's storied past, on how to take charge of your own life.
"I was a nervous wreck doing that speech in front of smart, diligent people, but the fact I was a local girl helped me some," Parton, 66, said in a recent telephone interview. "Since it went so well Penguin wanted to put the speech out, but then David Dotson, the president of my Imagination Library literacy program, who helps me with my personal things, said, 'Why don't you expand the speech and elaborate in chapters' the themes I used for the speech, 'and donate the money to the Imagination Library?' I usually do concerts to make up that money, but I wasn't on tour so I threw in some words of wisdom to let people know how I conduct my business — not a hard thing to do — and it went fast."
Parton's Imagination Library also grew fast. The program started in 1996 in Sevier County, where she was born in Tennessee, the fourth of 12 kids. The goal was to give every child in the county one free book every month, mailed to their home and addressed to the child from the day they were born until they were ready to start kindergarten. Imagination Library now serves the United States, parts of Europe and Canada and 47 million books have been distributed so far.
"I find it ironic that I did not like school, but I would wind up spending my life working with kids," Parton said, noting that her distaste for school had nothing to do with the teachers or the books she'd have to read. Rather, growing up poor meant she was often teased by the other kids, a period recounted in her landmark 1971 composition, Coat of Many Colors.
"Also, we couldn't afford to take the books home because there were too many kids who would chew up the books or pee on them, and Daddy would say, 'I can't afford to pay for more books so don't bring books in here!'
"But every child needs to learn to read and write, and if I can do something to help them learn more they can learn to like school," Parton said. "It's so important to get books into the hands of children."
Now that the woman behind country and pop classics like 9 to 5, Jolene and I Will Always Love You has the title "Book Lady" as part of her legacy, Parton writes of her desire in Dream More:
"If I'm remembered 100 years from now, I hope it will be not for looks but for books. I don't want to be responsible for any boobs in the future! I had to get that off my chest."

ABOUT "ABOUT LAST NIGHT" AND ITS AUTHORS ABOUT TERRY'S BOOKS MORE ABOUT "POPS" ABOUT TERRY'S PLAY AND OPERA LIBRETTI Terry collaborated with Paul Moravec on Danse Russe, a backstage comedy about the making of The Rite of Spring that was premiered by Philadelphia's Center City Opera Theater on April 28, 2011. To read more about Danse Russe, go here and here. To view excerpts from the opera and see Paul and Terry talk about its creation, go here. Terry previously collaborated with Paul on The Letter, an operatic version of Somerset Maugham's 1927 play that was commissioned by the Santa Fe Opera in 2006 and opened there on July 25, 2009.

Not new, but still worth a look or listen (and no less subject to change without notice).
This is a blog about the arts in New York City and the rest of America, written by Terry Teachout, Laura Demanski (otherwise known as Our Girl in Chicago, or "OGIC" for short), and Carrie Frye (who signs her postings "CAAF"). Terry, who lives in New York, is the drama critic of The Wall Street Journal and the chief culture critic of Commentary. His Wikipedia entry is here.
Terry's latest book is Pops: A Life of Louis Armstrong, published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt in the U.S., JR Books in England, Larousse in Brazil, and United Press/Alpina in Russia. He is currently at work on Mood Indigo: A Life of Duke Ellington. He wrote the introductions to William Bailey on Canvas and the paperback editions of Richard Stark's Flashfire and Firebreak and Elaine Dundy's The Dud Avocado. One of his essays is included in Robert Gottlieb's Reading Dance, and he contributed notes on recordings by Louis Armstrong, Gene Krupa, and Oscar Peterson to Jazz: The Smithsonian Anthology.

Saint Joan (Access, 380 Broadway, extended through May 13). George Bernard Shaw's history play about Joan of Arc runs for three and a half hours and calls for a pageant-sized cast of twenty-four. How to make it doable in a tiny off-off-Broadway theater? By reconfiguring the script for a woman and three men who switch from part to part à la The 39 Steps. It may sound gimmicky, but Eric Tucker's vest-pocket staging, mounted in a house so small that one scene is played in the lobby, fuses Shakespearean speed with Brechtian directness. It's the most exciting Shaw revival I've ever seen (TT).
Renoir, Impressionism, and Full-Length Painting (Frick Collection, 1 E. 70, up through May 13). A miniature show of nine full-length portraits, all of them stunningly persuasive, painted between 1874 and 1883 by a painter who could be too easy and likable but is here shown to be the master he (sometimes) was (TT).
David Goodis, Five Noir Novels of the 1940s and 50s (Library of America, $35, out Mar. 29). All but forgotten today save for the films made out of his books--François Truffaut turned Down There into Shoot the Piano Player--Goodis was a pulp novelist of nightmarish compulsion, and his work, whether or not it merits enshrinement by the Library of America, remains immensely readable. If you've been missing Richard Stark more than usually of late, this collection, which opens with Dark Passage, the 1946 novel on which the Bogart-Bacall thriller was based, will ease your pain (TT).
Anatomy of a Murder (Criterion Collection, two DVDs). Otto Preminger was the most uneven of major film directors, but he hit the target with awesome force in this tough-minded 1959 screen version of the best-selling novel about a self-doubting lawyer (James Stewart) who tries to save an army officer (Ben Gazzara) from doing time for a murder that he may or may not have committed. The "supporting" cast, which includes George C. Scott, Lee Remick, Arthur O'Connell, and Eve Arden, is fully equal in quality to the front-liners, but it's the total effect of Anatomy of a Murder that you'll remember. Never has the American legal system been portrayed with such searching honesty--or such cinematic éclat. The score is by Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, the titles by Saul Bass. As usual, the Criterion Collection provides both a flawless transfer and a second disc crammed full of watchable extras (TT).
Duke Ellington, At the Crystal Gardens, Salem, Oregon, 1952 (Hep, two CDs). This album captures the Ellington band in public performance at an awkward juncture in its long life: Clark Terry had recently come aboard, and Johnny Hodges and Sonny Greer had been replaced by Willie Smith and Louis Bellson. It was a tough time for the Duke, but he made the most of it, and this set, privately recorded in excellent sound at a West Coast dance date, reveals the band to have been in colossally fine form. The fare includes The Tattooed Bride, one of Ellington's most effective large-scale pieces. Outstanding liner notes by Andrew Homzy (TT).
Out of the Past
Louis Jordan 1938-1950 (Fremeaux & Associés, two CDs). Imported from France, a near-perfect selection of thirty-six 78 sides by the singer-saxophonist and his Tympany Five, the jumping combo whose hard-swinging brand of populist jazz helped to set the musical agenda for rhythm and blues and early rock and roll. Not to worry--most of the big hits are here ("Choo-Choo Ch'Boogie," "Is You Is or Is You Ain't My Baby," "Saturday Night Fish Fry"). If Jordan's joyous music doesn't make you smile and/or pat your foot, you need an intervention, or maybe a lobotomy (TT).
Horton Foote, Horton Foote's Three Trips to Bountiful: Teleplay, Stageplay, and Screenplay. Originally written for live TV in 1953, The Trip to Bountiful, the poignant story of an old woman trapped in Houston who longs to visit her rural home one last time, was adapted by Foote for the stage and, in 1983, the screen. This invaluable 1993 volume, published by Southern Methodist University Press, contains all three scripts, accompanied by interviews with Foote and his various collaborators. I can't think of a better way to study the differences between the three media--or to deepen your familiarity with a once-obscure play that is now rightly regarded as an American classic (TT).

I just thought I'd leave my notes here as I figure this out.
IncrementChapter() is the action that bumps the game to the next chapter.
GUICHAP.CHU is the resource that defines the MOS files and text regions (and buttons) for each chapter intro.
CHAPTERS.2DA specifies the strref's used in the regions defined by each GUICHAP entry.
Each chapter narrative strref references the corresponding WAV file. Here's an example:
@14448 = ~Leaving the horrors of the frost giant caves behind them, the party made their way into the deepest tunnels of the dwarven complex. In the distance, a bright red glow emanated from the mouth of a large corridor, indicating that they were not alone in the darkness of Lower Dorn's Deep.~ [NARR_CH6]

I don't see any CHU conversion routines in the existing weimorph sources so I'll have add that. Fortunately the iwd1 and iwd2 files are nearly identical (the main difference is that iwd1 uses lower resolution MOS files).
I was just looking into the load-screens. These are handled by the "AREALOAD.2DA" file. The format looks a bit different in iwd2, so this conversion might be interesting.

Okay, I'm working with the GUICHAP.CHU file and I discovered that even though the file types are nearly identical, I can't simply do a straight conversion. The problem is that the MOS file dimensions have change from 640x480 to 800x600. So the chapter narrative MOS doesn't work as is. I've thought about doing some cutting and pasting and then just replacing the MOS files like this:

Cutting and pasting looks like a good solution to me. Does MAPICON have something to do with the action that happens when you select a location on the world map?
I was trying to remember if the map is handled differently in IWD2 compared to IWD1. In IWD2, I recall having icons that were inaccessible until I reached a certain point. Maybe this is what that CHAPTERS field does.
Posted 19 January 2007 - 07:50 AM
Alright, I got chapter narratives and load screens working. The audio text and graphics work nicely for the narratives (the text bounding boxes fit nicely). I had to do the same trick all around: I created 600 x 800 images by cutting and pasting against a larger background. I think resizing the images would've looked pretty bad and this isn't a bad compromise (it's too bad I can't find higher res versions of these resources).

Tags: USA Pro Cycling Challenge, TrainingPeaks, Tour de France, Timex, Lafayette, Gear Fisher
If sweat isn't enough to prove a good workout, TrainingPeaks offers a way for the fitness-obsessed to get detailed rundowns of their athletic feats. The Lafayette-based company serves pro athletes and recreational gym rats alike with play-by-plays of their performances—everything from lap split times to creating a workout schedule.
Here's how it works: Sync almost any monitoring device (like a Timex heart-rate monitor) with the program (the basic consumer plan is free); do your running intervals; then log on to trainingpeaks.com and instantly see your metrics.
Eight Tour de France teams used TrainingPeaks' data analysis to monitor and improve their performance, and the application will be the official stats and analysis partner for this month's USA Pro Cycling Challenge. "Fans can see exactly how hard it was to climb up Independence Pass," CEO Gear Fisher says. "We are helping people learn more about what athletes are capable of."

Temple run 2.. installed, played for 2 minutes, deleted.
Exactly same old gameplay
2. Victor.H (Posts: 373; Member since: 27 May 2011)
24 more to choose from!
4. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
..240 000, to put it better :)
My point was that the game gets way more credit than deserved, imo
10. downphoenix (Posts: 2134; Member since: 19 Jun 2010)
I disagree. Temple Run is a perfect blend of casual and hardcore, it is really easy to play and rounds are short which is good for casuals, but its good for hardcores because it is challenging, fast, and the free 2 play aspects dont cheapen the experience like they do with 99% of the free 2 plays.
And how is that retroarch allowed on the google play store? LOL. I get emulators, but that comes with the games? Has it been pulled yet?
3. neutralguy (Posts: 1152; Member since: 30 Apr 2012)
hmmm.. wondering what would you even expect?
7. darac (Posts: 2156; Member since: 17 Oct 2011)
Well I would expect some basic creativity at least.
That doesn't necessarily mean a change in the core of the game.. but just reshaping, refreshing and enriching it.
Angry birds star wars is a good example of that
6. g2a5b0e (Posts: 1803; Member since: 08 Jun 2012)
I agree. The game is garbage. I don't understand the popularity of it. I did the same the first. A simple watching of a video the second told me there was no need to waste my time.
8. josephnero (Posts: 194; Member since: 16 Nov 2011)
thats the case with most popular games.like angry birds.
as an avid gamer i dont find it amusing but for average joe its good for time killing

Temple run 2 is not a keeper I'll uninstall soon.
13. Bobbyroy (Posts: 2; Member since: 11 Feb 2013)
I like Temple run 2! I also installed Pocket Mafia, latest free Android game! You can download it from Google Play store.

Six months into his new term, Sequatchie County Executive Michael Hudson surprised the County Commission by submitting his resignation, effective April 1.
"I just felt like it was time to go," Hudson said Tuesday, a day after giving notice. "I've prayed about it and talked to my family about it. It's time to turn over a new leaf.
"There's nothing negative about my decision," he said.
State law requires commissioners to appoint a replacement to serve until the next county general election, which comes up in August 2012.
Hudson was re-elected to the nonpartisan post in August, defeating challengers D. Keith Cartwright and Jeffrey S. Mackey. Hudson has held the seat since being appointed to it in 2007 at age 25 to fill the vacancy left by David Barker, who retired because of health problems.
Hudson then ran unopposed in August 2008 for the remainder of Barker's term. Hudson started his political career as a county commissioner in 2006.
"The county's in good financial shape and there's no 'issue'" leading to his decision to step down, he said.
"I'm going to stay through the transition process, and even longer if need be to make sure it's a smooth transition and that everything goes well," he said.
Hudson declined to discuss his long-term plans but said he will volunteer his time after April 1 to help at commission budget meetings.
County Commissioners Clint Huth and Will Zimmerman said the entire commission was surprised by the announcement.
"I hate to see him leave. Michael's done a good job," Huth said.
Huth said Hudson's replacement -- who will be appointed by the commission -- needs to be a good manager with the skills to market the county to businesses and industry.
"We'd like to have somebody appointed as soon as possible so they can get in there to work with Michael" during the transition, he said.
Zimmerman said county leaders are concerned about Hudson's departure because the county is approaching budget season.
"It's going to be awkward to anyone who's not familiar with the budget process," he said. "Fortunately, we have a very knowledgeable budget committee."

Within the far future of the 41 millennium , there is only war, No one is innocent and the enemy is at our door. Hundreds of worlds are destroyed by the hour, Some in which are from Chaos's devour. Mankind has shed more blood on the field than any other race, However, the Galaxy runs at it's own pace. To our understanding, there are thousands of people dying each day, It is a judgment, to for humanity to strive in every way. Many young, many old, people of the Imperium are perishing, I find it unusual, others find it quite cherishing. No matter the cost, no matter the odds stacked against us, Humanity will strive and our enemies shall crumble to dust.

Agreed - but that doesn't really have anything to do with healing surges, as such. Call a "short rest" over night and an "extended rest" a week of game time (or a month, or a week per surge spent), and you get this effect. It all takes place in a few minutes of real time, anyway - the game time lag is basically just colour (with possible off-camera plot implications). I think DDN just needs to set up a "dial" for this colour; get the scaling of what refreshes with a "short" rest and what refreshes with an "extended" rest right - get it working well as a game - and then let each game group decide what "game time tempo" they want to use for themselves.
Meh - clerics never "had to" save spells for healing; they were just sort-of expected to in order to (a) let the rest of the party play properly and (b) stop the game being broken in 3.x. If you were able to turn a blind eye to this sort of shenanigans and just roll with it, it worked fine - otherwise, the strings and the machinery behind the curtain became disconcertingly visible.
To me, healing surges are better because the capacity to heal is where it fits best - with the "patient" being healed - and the "healer" is just a catalyst for the process. The resource management is still there, but now it scales to the number of characters in the party and is a game everyone gets to play. The healer still gets to be a helpful catalyst to speed when the resource can be spent - and maybe even has some "bonus" resource to add into the pot for any "patient" of their choice - but doesn't have to be the sole source of fast recovery for however many there are in the team.
Whether the healing can be done in combat is a taste thing. I think it adds an extra dimension to the tactical game, but to those who either want a simpler tactical game, or who just don't want a tactical game at all, I can see that it's not helpful. An area for "modularity" to apply, maybe.Balesir

ø Ignore Tony VargasNot a bad goal. Smacks of heroism.
There is nothing - repeat, nothing - wrong with a party taking several days or even a few weeks (or even a few months if there's lots of travel involved) in game time to get through an adventure; most of which time is spent resting.
The upshot of that is that class balance and resource management need to be robust and flexible enough to allow the DM to vary pacing to fit his campaign. A 'dial' that adjusted not just healing, but all resource-recovery would be a good part of that.
Or, as an alternative, there's also nothing wrong with having the healers use their spells to - horrors! - heal rather than to do other things (I think this is a lot of what broke the Cleric in 3e - they didn't need to save their spells for healing so instead could become buff machines).

ø Ignore howandwhy99I don't believe the OP's description of a long, drawn out battle against a significant opponent should be ignored, but I don't believe it requires extensive, short-gain healing options either. High level casters have powers, both weak and powerful in the vancian system. Powerful wizards can cast their most powerful spell that they've been saving all day. Clerics can use all kinds of enhancements, aids, and heals to benefit their allies. Regardless, a high level party could pull off what was described.
What isn't needed is a baked in combat length or multiple heals. That simply makes one's decisions in combat more scripted and contrived than leaving combat space as wide open as possible. Sometimes combats run long. Sometimes its because dice are rolling poorly, sometimes its because the players went in with a number of misconceptions about their foe. There are plenty of reasons.
Low level play historically has fewer options, but players can always, at any level, choose to get creative. Their opponents don't. They fight based upon a number of factors predetermined by the game system, but ultimately they aren't as capable of being newly creative as the players. That's simply the nature of the game.
Setting up the possibility of a long, tough battle that ends in the PCs is something I agree with. But I would only want it if the possibilities existed as well for short, easy battles and long, tough ones the PCs ultimately ran from, were captured, or were even possibly killed during.Amateur Enigmatographer

ø Ignore RangerWickettNarratively, of course you want the game to let short easy battles and short hard battles and short impossible battles and long impossible battles exist.
All I want is for long hard battles to exist. Because in 3.5, they often didn't. Initiative. I cast hold person. I coup de grace the adventure's final boss. (Or dominate monster. I coup de grace the main boss of the campaign.) Kind of underwhelming.Ryan "RangerWickett" Nock

snippage of stuff I totally agree with
To be fair, this was really not just a "problem" (put in quotes because to me as a DM it wasn't an issue, it was just the way the game worked....sometimes the bad-guy went down faster than I would like, sometimes WAY faster, but it happened to the PCs sometimes too, so no biggie) with 3.5. I remember a climactic encounter in a 2E adventure I was running where a massive creature (something from spelljammer....one of the reallly scary ones!) rolled astoundingly bad on his save versus spells for a Hold Monster and that was that....spear through the eye into the brain. Hold spells have always been win buttons (IIRC).

ø Ignore GameDoc
Most anti-climactic (and funniest) battle I've played: Assault on a red dragon's lair in 3.5. We had it planned out to a degree that makes a WoWC guild raid look like a disorganized mess. What we failed to account for was that the dragon might actually just fly out of its cave when it realized we had come prepared to fight it in close quarters. So we chase it back outside and it turns on us, raises into the air and it becomes obvious its going to skip right over the front rank and divebomb the wizard in the back. I say to the guy playing the wizard, half-jokingly "quick, turn it into a cow!". And he says "okay, what the hell...". And casts baleful polymorph and the dragon fails it's friggin save.
The DM sat quietly for a second and the said "We'll... it's a cow.". And then with a befuddled "moo?" it plummeted to the earth and went splat.

That's great!
Much like Hold Person (or Disintegrate in 1/2/3E), Polymorph Other/Baleful Polymorph has likewise led to some anticlimactic (yet quite amusing moments) at several points in my career as DM....many a villain, both monstrous or human(oid) has ended their career as a hamster/rabbit/mouse being gang-stomped by a party of vengeful adventurers.
P.S. And to reiterate my previous sentiment, that's okay! That's what some of the fun of D&D is for me. My villainous plans and occasionally the player's heroic plans go spectacularly awry from time to time and I wouldn't have it any other way. Hey, they roll ones on saves too!Last edited by 13garth13; Thursday, 11th October, 2012 at 04:41 AM. Reason: grammar

ø Ignore LanefanAbsolutely. And that's when the PCs really have to manage their resources properly because they won't get the rest breaks they otherwise might, won't have as many chances to study/pray for spells, won't get their overnight heal rate as often, etc. And some adventures should totally be like this; where the choice as to whether to plow ahead or to stop and rest has potentially very serious consequences either way*.
Some adventures, but not all. Each adventure really should have its own pacing - sometimes the party might think they're on a clock when they're actually not; other times they might not know of a deadline until it's too late; another adventure might have a well-known and hard deadline, while a fourth doesn't have any time limit at all.
* - note this still doesn't completely work in a 4e-style situation where resources (other than dailies) are not really diminished that much as you go along - you've always got your at-wills, you've got your encounter powers to pull out once per fight no matter how many fights you get into, and so on.

I think this is a fundamental division point in what people do want. Leaving a "combat space as wide open as possible" for me just gives me a space with nothing in it. It's sort of the difference between liking to paint, starting out with a big, blank canvas of pure white, and wanting to carve wood, figuring out ways to use the knots and gnarls that the wood presents you with to form something elegant and attractive. Do the knots and gnarls constrain what you can do? Sure - but that's a good thing!
The point isn't really the "in combat healing" - it's not any one, specific thing. It's making sure that there are plenty of knots and gnarls to work with (and work around) as the play progresses. In other words, when I "get creative", I want to build something from what is already there, not invent whatever I want without any sort of constraint. The second form of play isn't wrong - it's just not what I find fulfilling.Last edited by Balesir; Thursday, 11th October, 2012 at 09:26 AM. Reason: The usual (typo).

ø Ignore Mournblade94In the 3 editions of D&D I played before 4e, the players always managed to pull themselves out of the brink. 4e might force it with design, but it certainly is not unique to 4e.
I am looking forward to the quick dramatic combats in previous editions, rather than the long drawn out grinds that take an hour or more to run.
If they want to make long drawn out combats a module it is all good,

Subway Foot-Long Sub Comes Up Short
By editor
Good morning, I'm David Greene with news of a fast food chain that's coming up short. Earlier this week, a customer in Australia ordered a Subway Foot-Long sub only to find it measured a mere 11 inches. He posted a photo alongside a tape measure on the company's Facebook page, sparking outrage from customers and an investigation by the New York Post. They bought seven Subway Foot-Longs in New York City and four of them measured less than 12 inches. Subway is looking into this sizable matter.

If your child has asthma and allergies, there are many things you can do around the home to keep symptoms to a minimum. During summer months, many children see a reduction in symptoms because the circulation of fresh air helps reduce the instance of irritants in the air. However, once school starts, all the efforts you made to keep your little one's sneezing and wheezing to a minimum seem to go out the window.
Possible classroom triggers include class pets, hairspray and perfume, chalk dust or even secondhand smoke on staff and students' clothing.
Be sure your child is prepared for the classroom by reminding him of allergy triggers.
Make sure your home is as trigger-free as possible. One way to ensure a hypoallergenic home is to use top-quality air purifiers like those available at FreshAirPro. Try an energy-efficient model like the BlueAir ECO10 Air Purifier. This special filtration system uses up to 95 percent less energy than others of its kind, yet it still has the ability to clear the air of 99.97 percent of all particles .3 microns in size or larger. Keep your home allergy-free with FreshAirPro.

Jean-François Millet
Country Scene with Stile, c.1872
Oil on canvas, 54 x 64cm Presented, Sir Alfred Chester Beatty, 1950NGI.4265
Millet is best known for his paintings of peasants at work. This peasant naturalism arose out of the 1848 Revolution in France, and against the backdrop of the rural depopulation that resulted from the Industrial Revolution. Although landscape provided settings for his figure compositions, pure landscape only became important to him late in his career, from the mid-1860s. For his landscapes he principally drew on his native Normandy, where he remained for the duration of the Franco-Prussian War.
In this idyllic view, the geese - scrambling through the stile to freedom - draw the eye from the shady foreground to the gentle sunlit scenery beyond, where the rooftops of a farmhouse nestle below the slope of the hill. Millet has playfully foreshortened the last bird as he struggles to squeeze his rounded body through the twig barrier. The unusually high horizon line, the interest in the reflected warm glow of sunset and the use of a light priming left to show through the thin paint layers, place this small work in the years after 1870.

Disco Dreams
Sonata for Jukebox: Pop Music, Memory, and the Imagined Life
Over the last twenty-five years the mix tape has become a paradigmatic form of popular expression. It is one part Victorian flower album, one part commonplace book, one part collage, and one part recital. The maker dubs onto cassette or burns onto CD a group of songs by other hands, the selection and sequence intended to compose a billet-doux, score a dance party, prove a point, or simply demonstrate the compiler's taste and expertise. It is a natural outcome of home-recording technology, and represents a back-porch, scaled-down amateur version of the highly competitive art of the DJ.
Being a DJ demands not just sophisticated equipment but access to advance releases of records, an ear for matching beats, and a finely tuned sense of dance-floor dynamics, among other things, while making a mix tape requires only a modest record collection and appropriate sentiments. The mix tape can be transitive—a letter—or intransitive—a diary entry. It can follow a particular line or expansively juxtapose. It can be ruled by sound or by concept. It is almost always fleeting—often more so than the songs it comprises—and endures best as a time capsule of a vibe gone by.
Both of the books under review are mix tapes, or rather they are track listings with commentary. Nick Hornby's is exactly that, a thirty-one-song, ninety-minute cassette, with a few quasi-related essays bringing up the rear, while Geoffrey O'Brien's is a collection of essays on pop music that includes four chapters of autobiography via mix tape and, for good measure, ends with an idiosyncratic account of the history of popular music in 150 titles, which roughly would amount to a six-CD compilation. As a way of writing about popular music that admits the intense subjectivity and chance associations that define the topic no matter how much intellectual ballast is brought to bear, the mix-tape approach is an honest one. The mix tape, after all, is the fruit of contingency; it has no truck with canon-building. And while such a book is at first glance pretty easy to put together, or at least not much harder than compiling the tape, since any fool can go on at length about the circumstances under which he or she first heard "Ebb Tide" or "Bring the Noise," it is vexingly tough to shape. If the mix tape itself is by nature a transient object, the book is, as it were, a permanent record.
Thanks to his 1995 novel High Fidelity, Nick Hornby has a well-known association with mix tapes. It may not have been the first novel in which they figure significantly—in Alan Warner's bleakly lyrical Morvern Callar (also 1995), a sort of rave-era parable, the eponymous heroine makes compilations, lovingly enumerated, to mark stages in her disaffected progress from Scottish poverty to Mediterranean indulgence—but High Fidelity is all about mix tapes, or at least it's about a culture of repressed, squirrelly, obsessive young men who use pop songs …
