Music, viewed differently

You might have thought that Excel and other software wasn’t able to be used for anything that wasn’t amusing, but you’d be wrong.

A few weeks ago, David had pointed me to this item on jamphat, “rap represented in mathematical charts and graphs,” and I couldn’t stop laughing. That, combined with the Rick Astley chart, made it all come together for me.

Then, this morning, Chris gave me the heads up on the Song Chart Flickr pool (there are multiple, it would seem), that he’d caught here.

After all of that, I knew I had to contribute, so I threw together this chart of M.I.A.’s “Paper Planes” for your viewing enjoyment.
