Life:
For his recent CD, Timelapse, DuBois fed all 857 songs that topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart between 1958 and 2000 into his algorithm. He then allotted the time-lapsed version of every tune 1 second of playing time for every week the original spent at No. 1. The result, called “Billboard,” traverses 42 years of pop music history in 37 minutes, with songs appearing and disappearing every few seconds. A QuickTime movie displays the names of the songs and their performers as the years fly by.
I have got to get hold of that CD.
