Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mysterious music box from the Haunted Museum follows a young girl home in this spooky read by the author of The Titanic Locket. Don’t touch anything in the Haunted Museum! Emma would rather be at her ballet class than at the Haunted Museum, but she can’t miss her best friend’s birthday party. In a spooky exhibit of music boxes, she’s drawn to a particular one, in which a pair of dancers spin slowly to a haunting melody. But that very night, the music box shows up at her door—like it’s following her. Emma dances better than she ever imagined when the music box is playing. But that’s not all. Sometimes the music speeds up, and the dancers seem to move on their own. Emma finds the lid open, music playing, even when she knows she’d shut it before. And then an eye appears in the mirror inside the lid—someone is watching Emma! The more Emma learns about the history of the music box, the more she realizes she needs to break the hold it has over her before it’s too late. But the better she dances when the music plays, the less she wants to! Praise for The Titanic Locket “Hair-raising. . . . Weyn keeps unexpected chills coming. . . . A quick, jittery read.” —Publishers Weekly “Weyn ratchets up the eeriness . . . and quickly builds to a stormy climax.” —Kirkus Reviews

Download or read book Spotify Teardown written by Maria Eriksson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-02-19 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An innovative investigation of the inner workings of Spotify that traces the transformation of audio files into streamed experience. Spotify provides a streaming service that has been welcomed as disrupting the world of music. Yet such disruption always comes at a price. Spotify Teardown contests the tired claim that digital culture thrives on disruption. Borrowing the notion of “teardown” from reverse-engineering processes, in this book a team of five researchers have playfully disassembled Spotify's product and the way it is commonly understood. Spotify has been hailed as the solution to illicit downloading, but it began as a partly illicit enterprise that grew out of the Swedish file-sharing community. Spotify was originally praised as an innovative digital platform but increasingly resembles a media company in need of regulation, raising questions about the ways in which such cultural content as songs, books, and films are now typically made available online. Spotify Teardown combines interviews, participant observations, and other analyses of Spotify's “front end” with experimental, covert investigations of its “back end.” The authors engaged in a series of interventions, which include establishing a record label for research purposes, intercepting network traffic with packet sniffers, and web-scraping corporate materials. The authors' innovative digital methods earned them a stern letter from Spotify accusing them of violating its terms of use; the company later threatened their research funding. Thus, the book itself became an intervention into the ethics and legal frameworks of corporate behavior.

Book excerpt: The Music Box Kingdom A monarchy stuck in a music box, with its own power battles and royal intrigue. In Summary An old music box that seems to have been lost over time is found by a little girl named Lily in a dusty corner of an attic. It turns out to be more than it seems. Once Lily winds up the music box's delicate mechanism, she is swept away to the center of the machine, where tunes and harmonies rule a bright and magical world. The so-called "Music Box Kingdom" is in danger. This group's future is in danger because the music that makes it appealing is going away. The realm is a beautiful magical place where Lily has to solve puzzles and find secrets. As she enters the world of song, she sees how bad things are there and how important it is for her to bring it back to life. Lily's unplanned trip turns into a very important task. A magical glowing flute leads her on a quest to find the Lost Melody, which is the key to keeping the kingdom's music alive. Along the way, she meets many people who live in the country. There are funny sprites by the Rhythmic River and whispering trees in the Whispering Woods. They all teach her to be wise and kind. These relationships make her more determined, and they also show the way to unity. Lily's adventure, in which she faces the Guardian of Silence and persuades the Symphony of Shadows to share their lost songs, shows how powerful harmony can be and how music can last forever. With the Lost melody in her hand, she brings back the kingdom's tune, creating a bond between herself and the magical place that will last forever. The Music Box Kingdom comes back to life with color and tune after almost dying of lack of activity. A song about bravery, friendship, and the lasting power of music is its only comfort. Chapter 1: What was found in the attic. Lily's house had an attic tucked away in a quiet corner. It was full of old memories and mysteries just ready to be solved. There were a lot of boxes in the attic. Lily chose to check out this empty place one day because she was interested and wanted to go on an adventure. As she climbed the creaky stairs, dust danced in the light beams that cut through the darkness. This created a strange atmosphere that spelled magic and mystery. In all the mess and spiderwebs, Lily saw a very strange thing: a music box. This wasn't any old box; it seemed to be filled with magical energy. It looked very old and had elaborate carvings that told stories of faraway places and times long ago. The music box was interesting; it looked like it had been waiting for Lily to find it. Lily reached out and gently wound the music box. She was so excited that her hands were tingling with anticipation. The first sounds flew into the air, and something amazing began to happen. It wasn't just music; the song was a key to another world. The box's sounds spun around Lily, making a tune that made her feel like she was in a warm hug as the attic around her became fuzzy. Before Lily knew it, the dull attic was gone, leaving behind a world she had never seen before. This was not a normal country; the whole world was singing. As the trees swayed, their leaves rustled in time, making a soft drumming sound. The music made the blossoms bloom at the same time, and their colors were bright and alive. There were notes in the air that made the sky look like it was dawn or dusk. Lily thought the music box took her deep into its heart, where harmony and song were the most important things. The sound of music filled Lily's heart with unimaginable happiness, and her eyes were wide with awe. The music box's hypnotic powers are shown by how smoothly it takes you from the sad attic to this beautiful paradise. It looked like the scene was alive and full of energy because music and color were everywhere she looked. This realization was the start of Lily's biggest journey. She had found a way to get to a world where music was life itself, not just a music box. It was a strange feeling, like you were in a dream world where each note was a paintbrush stroke on this bright globe. Lily knew at that moment that she was about to go on a journey like no other. This adventure would help her find the mysteries inside the old music box and show her the true power of music. Chapter 2: The Salutation of the Queen Lily felt more and more amazed as she explored the music box's bright world. It had beautiful scenery, and the people who lived there were different from anyone she had met before. Nobody else lived in the Music Box Kingdom like them, and happiness and music came to them like air. They danced and sang about Lily. Their voices were like a friendly chorus, and their moves were like a welcome ballet. When Lily was greeted with such warmth, she felt like she had joined a family she had no idea existed. One person stood out from the crowd; they were brighter and more majestic than the others. King Harmony was the ruler of the Music Box Kingdom. Just being around, him was as relaxing as a nice tune. As he got closer to Lily, his smile seemed to light up the whole world. King Harmony was more than just a king; he was the music that made this magical land go. His eyes sparkled with the beauty of a thousand songs, and his robes moved with the ease of a symphony. King Harmony greeted Lily kindly and told her how happy he was to have her here. After that, he told her the secret that had kept their kingdom alive: music wasn't just art or pleasure, it was the main force behind everything. The air was filled with harmonies and melodies that made everything in the land grow. The trees, the wind, and the water all loved them. When Lily understood that music could be more than just nice sounds, she had an epiphany. In this case, music was the very essence of being. But the king told them a scary truth, and his mood got worse. The music that kept the kingdom alive had started to lose its power. The music was not only getting less beautiful, but it was also a threat to the Music Box Kingdom's very survival. The kingdom would lose its color, joy, and life very quickly without music. It was sad to think that such a lively atmosphere could become dull and quiet. Lily was deeply affected by what King Harmony said. She became more determined as she looked around at the happy faces of her new friends, the dancing leaves, and the singing rivers. The kingdom had welcomed her with open arms, but it now faced an existential danger. Lily knew she couldn't just stand there and enjoy the beauty and music at that moment. She had to do something. She was greeted with open arms by the people of the Music Box Kingdom. Now it was her turn to thank them by helping them when they needed it.
