Starting after Christmas Science Fiction Twin will be doing an interesting experiment.

I, Gary O’Brien, will be going through my entire CD collection (minus Elvis Costello). I plan on listening to three CDs a day, in alphabetical order.

Which means, of course, that my first day will include:

John Adams (classical), Admiral Twin and Air.

Not a bad first day.

Here’s my theory. By me reminiscing about these CDs, you’ll be able to learn about my life in unexpected ways. After all, my CD collection is not just a bunch of plastic encoded with 0s and 1s.

It’s a time capsule that captured particular moments of my life in crystalline. Each CD has a story and each story is very uninteresting.

Of course, there will be spots where it won’t say much. Such as, the Beatles. There’s an obvious reason why I own a lot of Beatles CDs.

So, join me in my journey through myself. I’ll call it, “The Gary O’Brien Audio Biograpy.”
