- bagged [personal profile] musicalbible and started filling in verses from the back of the Bible - counting part-verses (which I am) I'm at 17/1001 so far. (I heartily recommend not subscribing to that one if you don't want to get spammed)
- filled in an online form by way of a first step for registering with the Anthony Nolan Trust
- wild-released two books
- tried Currywurst
- watched three TED talks
- more or less finished this year's Yuletide assignment

I think that's it. Whew!

What's this about? Why do I want to do it?

A while back it occurred to me that, if one searched the whole history of church/religious music, one could find probably 90% of the verses of the Bible. I'm curious to see how difficult that would be. I think that trying to find the whole Bible in song is probably a little overambitious for 1001 days, but I'm pretty sure that I can do 1001 verses. The only snag is... I don't yet have anywhere to put them.


How will I know when it's done?

I will have set up some form of repository, and on this I will have identified and/or linked to pieces of music that together set 1001 verses of the Bible. (Yes, the Apocrypha counts, though I doubt that it would seriously inconvenience me if it didn't.)


I'll record this on the yet-to-be-set-up repository, to which I'll link here.
