A collaboration between <a href="http://www.peoplelikeus.org/">Vicki Bennett</a> (People Like Us, <a href="http://www.metafilter.com/40229/Hate-People-Like-Us">previously</a>) and <a href="http://www.ergophizmiz.com/">Ergo Phizmiz</a> (<a href="http://www.metafilter.com/34519/The-Velvet-Undergrounds-White-Light-White-Heat">previously</a>), Codpaste is an entertaining and instructive wander through such topics as cartoon music, Negativland, easy listening, and William S. Burroughs. There's even a curriculum <a href="http://www.peoplelikeus.org/piccies/codpaste/codpaste-teachingpack.pdf">[30mb pdf]</a> to go with it! Most episodes are about 30 minutes long, feature the same editing techniques and sound sources that they discuss, and are enhanced by Ergo and Vicki's wonderfully quaint accents. tag:metafilter.com,2008:site.77466 Mon, 15 Dec 2008 18:44:00 -0800 ergophizmiz mashup music peoplelikeus podcast soundcollage vickibennett wfmu moonmilk http://www.metafilter.com/40229/Hate%2DPeople%2DLike%2DUs <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People_Like_Us_%28musician%29">Vicki Bennett</a> is better known as <a href="http://www.peoplelikeus.org">People Like Us</a>, and just so happens to be the <a href="http://www.shzine.com/interview-peoplelikeus.asp">anointed</a> <a href="http://creativecommons.org/getcontent/features/peoplelikeus">queen</a> of <a href="http://www.halcyon.com/robinja/mythos/Plunderphonics.html">Plunder</a><a href="http://www.shzine.com/interview-peoplelikeus.asp">phonics</a>.
