Experimentation Island

Official conference bard. Every speaker gets a song. Nobody is safe.

Experimentation Island is the CRO industry’s island gathering — and every year, I write custom parody songs for the speakers. Not generic filler: each speaker gets a personalized banger built on a classic they never asked to be part of.

Selections from the songbook:

  • “Experimentation Island” — the island anthem (a loving Kokomo situation)
  • “Weigel’s Talking Soon” — Erin Weigel, via Fly Me to the Moon
  • “Always Tim Wilson To Me” — Tim Wilson, via Billy Joel (he’s quite often riled, but he’s always Tim Wilson to me)
  • “Heather’s Gonna Teach You Stuff” — Heather Greene gets rickrolled on her own behalf
  • “Learn Control from Fabijan” — Aleksander Fabijan, via Rocket Man
  • “Cause I Am Juarez” — Lindsey Juarez, via I Am the Walrus (goo goo g’joob)
  • “Who Has a Lifeline” — Alex Arvanitidis, via Once in a Lifetime
  • “Rishi” — Rishi Rawat, via Sixpence None the Richer
  • …plus tributes for Paula Sappington, Val Kroll, Kelly Wortham, Ton Wessling, Wil Reynolds and more
