Burn Your Idol

Burn Your Idol is an art project of my friend and long time mentor, Wok The Rock, a graphic-design artist, a co-founder of Mes 56 (an Indonesian contemporary photography community located in Yogyakarta) as well as the CEO and the fearless founder of yesnowave, Indonesian first (?) music netlabel, based in Yogyakarta.

The project basically is a compilation of a thousand (1000) burned CD-R, each of which contains album of as many artists/bands which are compiled through submission by whoever wants to participate (Me, for example, is the 278th submitter).

If you're willing to participate in this project, all you have to do is visit the Burn Your Idol link above, or here, fill all the information box on the page and wait several days ( apart for being highly creative, Wok The Rock is quite lazy son of a gun). The only criteria of the submission, or lack thereof, is that the album you submit should be that of the most-influential for you. I, for example, submit the Original Song Theme of Angus Movie, since it was the one album that could channel my teenage angst back then (1996), without which I can't be the one I am now. Here is the project description by Wok The Rock, while the following is what I wrote for him:
