I look forward to more dialog next week on the topic of music and wine. My first official post on Snooth will pair a zesty 2006 Blicks Lane Sauvignon Blanc with a track from a fantastic new Los Angeles 4-piece called The Weather Underground. Each post will include a free mp3 to spur conversation and additional pairing comments from the community. http://www.snooth.com/wine/blicks-lane-sauvignon-block-2006 Thanks for the intro Philip. great pairing ideas Dan!

Maybe, but its a special brand of creativity. I dont know how you'd graph it, maybe degrees of freedom or by how many established rules there are to adhere to. Things like art are pretty free, music (because humans need some sort of rhythm or structure) less so, coding or building architecture even more structured - as the software/building actually needs to be robust and usable at the end. Maybe winemaking is comparable to coding on that dimension then Coding as art? Maybe, but its a special brand of creativity.

Thanks, Dan. I have a special relationship with music while I code. Similarly to the winemaking, I do not believe that my code is going to come out any better when I'm listening to music, but it makes the entire process much more enjoyable, and allows me to be more productive and perhaps have better knock on ideas as the music jostles my creativity. Coding can be an art as well. Perhaps that's a subject for a later post, although it's not even remotely as fun to read about as winemaking and Caravaggio.
