The Glass Engine and Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music

The Glass Engine is an interactive guide to the music of Philip Glass, organized by… um… at least they’re organized. By something. Bizarre yet oddly compelling. (Perhaps if we ask nicely, we can get Marc Miller to tell the story of the time he actually met Philip Glass…) In a similar vein, a friend of mine directed me to Ishkur’s Guide to Electronic Music, an attitude-filled tour of the world of of electronic music. I’d like to say that I learned something, but that would be overstating it.

Raymond has been involved in the evolution of Windows for more than 30 years. In 2003, he began a Web site known as The Old New Thing which has grown in popularity far beyond his wildest imagination, a development which still gives him the heebie-jeebies. The Web site spawned a book, coincidentally also titled The Old New Thing (Addison Wesley 2007). He occasionally appears on the Windows Dev Docs Twitter account to tell stories which convey no useful information.
