Creatively challenged

18 August 2005. No comments yet. Inspired by a link spotted in Matt Jones' de.li.co.us tags of the day.

I'm not entirely sure what kind of VJ is into remixes of the exterior of Exeter Cathedral combined with calculators on the Money Programme, but either way the Beeb's first Creative Archive leap is a joy to behold. Lots of media goodness, and I for one will be adding a Pingu soundtrack to the Adelie penguin asap.

I can understand why they want to release content under various brands, in this case Radio 1, though surely the joy is in taking samples from unexpected places, rather than being told 'these are for music'?

But I quibble. As soon as I have a decent amount of free time (I'm thinking October 2011) I'll have a proper play. In the meantime, expect a lot of amateur, illegally soundtracked Lord Privy Seals from now on.
