8. Media + Metadata = Objects
The idea behind ‘object-based’ media is that you take all the assets
for a given TV or radio show – the video clips, the accompanying
audio, any music soundtrack, and extras like subtitles and sign
language translations…
…wrap it up in useful metadata and then use software to ‘remix’ it
as needed

40. The music album reimagined
@cubicgarden | By XL Recordings / Elektra - http://www.7digital.com/artists/the-prodigy/experience/, Public Domain, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?curid=274031
Moby credited Experience with changing his perception about dance
albums; previously he felt that "dance albums had always failed [...]
because they didn't work over the full length of the record. Mostly they
were singles collections which was exactly what I didn't want to do," and
noted that Experience "impressed me because they'd managed to create a
full listening experience which encompassed various styles. This was the
kind of vision I had for my debut album
