For anyone who likes to listen to music online and enjoys services like Spotify, there's a free Internet site called Radio Garden that's also worth checking out. Radio Garden is basically like Google Earth, except for radio stations.

Reengineering the Cultural Economy

Reengineering the Cultural Economy is an interesting, and informative essay from Alan Slusher, which he presented at the annual meeting of the Ministry of Tourism and Culture.  It's really worth a read.

"The word 'economy' has to do with all aspects of production, exchange, consumption and investment activities through which a people generate value and share the material and social goods that are required first for survival, and then, after the basic survival requirements are satisfied, for recreation, enjoyment, and intellectual and spiritual reflection and exploration.  These latter processes, of course, also lead to expansion in the production of goods and services, of income and wealth, and most importantly, they lead to changes in the patterns of behaviour and representations of those patterns, that, taken together, define the group’s culture."
