Radiohead opens up
I realize that being a Radiohead fan doesn’t make me unique. But one of it’s benefits is that it allows me to get emails like this one below. I love that this band is pushing co-creation and what it means to collaborate.
To celebrate this week’s single release (we still have those in England) Radiohead have broken up the song ‘Nude’ into pieces for you to remix.
For those of you who enjoy this sort of thing, you can buy the separate components or ’stems’ (bass, voice, guitar, strings/FX and drums) and remix your own version of the song. You can do this by adding your own beats and instrumentation or just remixing the original parts. More information here: http://www.radioheadremix.com/information/
You can buy the stems here: http://www.radioheadremix.com/buy/
You can upload your finished mixes here http://www.radioheadremix.com and be judged and even voted on by ‘the public’.
You can also create a widget allowing votes from your own website, Facebook or MySpace page to be sent through too.Hope you enjoy it
Does the fact that they’ve broken the “stems” up for easy hacking make remixing any less cool? Not in my opinion. I’m just excited to see artists doing what I hope to see more and more from designers.

It’s always fun to see how advertising jumps in the game of co-creation.
