Now, this is a similar idea to one an old friend of mine, Charlie - a part time drag queen called Malice, had. The purpose of this random CD track selector was to predict his day and forecast the future. Where as I am using Ipod Shuffle from my uploaded tunes, Charlie limited his options to the tunes of Cher and his CD player. No wonder he was always trying to turn back time in one form or another, be it regret, excessive moisturiser or surgery. I never understood what meaning 'Walking in Memphis' had, especially when he was in drag. Great idea though.
I kind of like the indulgence of silliness that believing your music forecasts your future, and, depending on your interpretation the ipods perspicacious assessment of mood can be scarily accurate. A bit like horoscopes; it also has moments of utter comedy although it can be dangerous as sometimes I really want to believe.
I guess I need something to fill the void, and music understands.
Random, Shuffle, Move on...
