			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well one of them is a contest anyway.</p>
<p>A few days ago <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trent_Reznor">Trent Reznor</a> of <a href="http://www.nin.com/">NIN</a> got on the YouTube and asked the community to take music from their <a href="http://ghosts.nin.com">latest (Creative-Commons licensed) album</a> and make a music video &#8212; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/ninofficial">http://www.youtube.com/ninofficial</a>.  They would then take a look, pick some favorites and then present them in a film festival of some sort.</p>
<p>And just today I find out that <a href="http://www.radiohead.com/deadairspace/">Radiohead</a>, with <a href="http://www.adultswim.com/">Adult Swim</a> and <a href="http://www.aniboom.com/">AniBoom.com</a>, want you to do the same thing with their <a href="http://www.inrainbows.com/">(previously-pay-whatever-the-hell-you-want) new album</a>.  Except they want it animated and you have to storyboard it first.  But if they like it they&#8217;ll pay you to make it &#8212; http://www.aniboom.com/radiohead.  You&#8217;ve got 40 days.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d enter them both if I had the time, I&#8217;ve downloaded and listened to both albums already and I could certainly think of something.  I even story boarded an animated video for &#8220;<a href="http://www.greenplastic.com/lyrics/just.php">Just</a>&#8221; once upon a time.  I&#8217;m not saying I would win anything, but it would be fun to be able to do something that creative.</p>
<p>Plus it&#8217;s just cool for a band like NIN to be encouraging others to build upon their work, to the point that they didn&#8217;t even name the tracks so it wouldn&#8217;t influence you.</p>
<p>Edit: Something I forgot to mention.  Another artist that isn&#8217;t really getting a lot of love for releasing his album online is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saul_Williams">Saul Williams</a>.  You may not have heard of him, but you might have heard one of his songs on a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28HUNQMI5HI&#038;eurl=http://dropkickmonkey.com/2008/03/12/stacey-wall-and-weidenkenedy-launch-nikes-sparq/">recent Nike commercial</a> (which of course seems like a strange pairing if you know anything about that song) or seen him in the indy movie <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139615/">Slam</a>.</em>  It&#8217;s a mix of hip-hop, poetry, and industrial.  Not bad in my opinion, but I think I like his previous self-titled album better.</p>
<p><em><a href="http://niggytardust.com/">The Inevitable Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust</a></em> was produced by Trent Reznor and will cost you some money, but it&#8217;s DRM free and you can get it in a loseless format.</p>
