148

Don't know if this means anything or if I've added up wrong, but…

Put the numbers in a 6x6 grid.
Add up the numbers in each column (e.g. 6 + 6 + 7 + 9 + missing + 5), then add up the totals of the results for each column. You get 148.
Add up the numbers in each row (e.g. 6 + 9 + 9 + 7 + 4 + 2 ...

hex colours?

If you use the numbers as hexadecimal colour values you get this. Not sure if it means anything, but there's a lot of green. :)

I think they care about the fans. I think that's what's causing the new album to take so long coming out. They're individually wrapping up each CD in custom artwork and are going to visit everyone's house to say sorry it took so long and give us all a hug and then go for a pint and a game of darts ...

It's two separate Shockwave Flash movies that are playing at the same time. As they're different lengths they kind of make one ever–changing tune.

I'm getting a broken link on Soundcloud. I'd really like to hear this as Peacock Tail is one of my favourite boc songs. As a friend of mine said after hearing it for the first time, it takes you 'back to the source'. I like the endless building and fractally (that a word?) images it brings to mind.

It was An Eagle In Your Mind, which played out an edition of BBC Radio 3's Mixing It programme. Rather like the fact that I first heard boc on Radio 3, though it was a bit odd hearing the announcer read out the name of the artist and track with the same clipped tones normally reserved for Bach and ...
