Say you were meeting a new person, blind date, new friend, who knows, and you wanted them to have some idea of what kind of person you are, and who you are. But you can't actually tell them in so many words.
Instead, you have to give them a box, with a dozen things in it for them to look at/read/listen to/taste/whatever.
1. A copy of Kate Bush, Hounds of Love
2. The video of me doing "Thank You Magical Internet" at the Classic
3. A copy of Gary Numan/Tubeway Army, Replicas
4. A copy of Vostok Lake, Small Group Psychosis (11 out of 13 tracks complete!)
5. A copy of On Our Backs magazine (one of the real sexy ones)
6. The second chapter of my doctoral thesis
7. A copy of The Sisters of Mercy, Floodland
8. A copy of Alan Moore and David Gibbons, Watchmen
9. A copy of Mystery Science Theatre 3000, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians
10. A copy of Ben Watson, Frank Zappa: The Negative Dialectics of Poodle Play
11. A compendium of the best posts from chaosmarxism.blogspot.com
12. Pictures of my cats
