is he the only artist to put brail on his cd case? anyway just got soup haven't listened to it yet but i really like fyuti, gnayse is ok. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its a Skam thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what does brail mean ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
little dots so blind ppl can read |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey one of your guys invented it didn't he? Braille is a system of bumps on paper so that blind peolpe can read with their finger tips. creme de menthe Rodney, creme de menthe. |

|
oh yes, i am stupid ; that's a great idea, BoC did the same on Hi Scores i find this really nice from Skam ; thanx to that, blind people can recognize a CD just touching it, and not having to listen to it to know which one they have put in their CD player nice idea, really |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
it's kinda skam logo, i think.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what he said - must learn to type more quickly- monkey hands don't help. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it was written 'boards of canada' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah it is a nice idea. due to thier blindness they deserve to be treated like gods with thier ears. 1 gold star to skam. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah the blind have extra listening capacities |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i can just imagine a blind person in HMV, feeling every single cd until they reach the one that says 'boards of canada' in braille... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good point |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've always wondered if there are blind people who like Skam releases let's await a comment of a blind person now |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wonder if a blind person has ever picked up bola and felt the braile and thought 'what the fuck is bola?' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Every Skam release has the brail thing... All the cd's, and all the Lp's. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, but why?..i think its great btw and should become standard on every cd |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes it's nice, even for people who aren't blind, to be able to feel the touch of something, kinda erotic maybe... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah sure who doesnt get off on reading braille? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
gimmick anyone? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm sure bline people would make their own braille labels anyway |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a blind person was nasty in nip tuck |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..hey..! you didn't say anything nasty about Bola..! well done, you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how about: 1. shite. 2. gimmick. ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well.. you should know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey, are Bola an officially Ae endorsed band like Merzbow and Coil? Let me make a fucking topic about it whilst Daddy keeps slipping me cash to buy new IDM CDs to keep me fucking quiet. |

all the braille says is 'skam' on every release. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no it doesn't mappatazee, i own nearly every single skam release (missing about 7) and the braille stickers are different, i dunno what they say but i assume it's the artists name. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
we need a blind person to get this mystery solved, NOW! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
or learn braille ourselves:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i always sniff my cds to find the one i want quickly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it says the name of the artist. more info if you have time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
too deep. we do have too much time on our hands don't we. think about it. jesus. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
licking cds could help also. labels should aromatize the cd cases or the polyethylene in which they are wrapping cd cases. |
||||||||

well they seem to say different things, i just googled 'braille alphabet' (got http://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/braille/index.html?id=yrDbxoqZ) and i picked a couple of skam releases at random. i chose bola - soup and team doyobi - cryptoburners. the braille on soup does indeed say 'bola' followed by the letter 's' and then some other letter that doesn't seem to be in the alphabet i looked at, followed by 'p', sop i prtesume it's supposed to say soup. the team doyobi braille sticker simply says 'team doyobi' though with no album name. |

what is neto's message? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have no idea. anyway i just looked at motors by quinoline yellow and the braille is weird, it says "quiolie yell 'then sum wierd symbol that doesn't appear in the alphabet but looks like a backwards 'o' or a mis-spelt 'w'" basically skam seem to either mis out letters and'or are usinma sum different alphabet, but you would have thought there would be a standard braille alphabet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the skampler cd braille says 'skam records' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

braille has some combination letters. says about it. scroll down to the hi scores bit or search for braille on the page. here's the quote: The Braille on the label: Some have interpreted it as having typos. In fact, it is quite correct. If you read it using a simple alphabetic Braille chart, you get "bo?ds ? canada", where the "?" represent characters not found on the chart. Numbering the dots in column one from top down as 1,2,3, and column two as 4,5,6, the two odd characters are 3-4-5 and 1-2-3-5-6, and reference to a more complete braille listing reveals that the first of these symbols stands for the letter pair [ar], and the second represents the word [of], so the sticker does indeed read "boards of canada". |
