I love seeing creator's lists of the works that inspired them and they love.

Great list, too. Nice to see a Tom Swan book, as I fondly remember devouring one of his books - my first "serious" programming book - the summer before college.

I don't get it. What are music cd's and HP calculators doing there?

You've never been inspired by a piece of music or a cleverly designed piece of hardware or software?

Maybe, but I was curious as to whether there is some reason those specific CDs were included.

For example, the hammock on the original list makes obvious sense: http://clojure.blip.tv/file/4457042/
