ILM Time Capsule: Suggestions for Content...

Three blank CDRs, one broken CDR, the dessicated corpse of Carson Daly, and these simple words:

"Don't venerate this, there are better things to do."

but then we'd have to kill carson da- oh.

If we go with CDs, one of the CD cases should — on inspection — prove to be empty, and the missing CD nowhere to be found in the capsule (not even in the player or disc-feed). Preferably the one that's empty shd our Archeologist-of-the-Future left till last to open, as s/he liked the look of it best. This will tell him/her much about modern life, if only s/he can work out what...

One dead bloke, one missing CD and a bunch of blanks. Not looking too good so far...oh well, honestly it seemed like a good idea! :)

Take 1 MC5 Kick Out the Jams, add a dash of the Pixies' Monkey's Gone To Heaven, Stir with a liberal smattering of the Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music and fuck it all up by tossing in Whitney Houston's awful cover of I will always Love U. Finally toss with Britney Spear's Training Bra and the Lester Bangs article on how to be a music critic. A recipe for the future if I've ever heard one.

Let's see if this thread will fly six months on.

I nominate the following 4 CDs, which should be placed in the capsule without their cases/covers/booklets:
Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP
Daft Punk - the 1997 live thing
Bob The Builder - Mambo No.5
Fennesz - "Plays"

I make no good/terrible distinctions here, as I've not heard any of these CDs. They just seem to me to be 'of the moment', soon to be forgotten.

Memorabilia - Britney's plastic cowboy hat mentioned in the Vegas thread.
Words on music - a copy of the Jay-Z/Nas thread.
