1. Echoes - Pink Floyd (song)
2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Michel Gondry (film)
3. Hail to the Thief - Radiohead (album)
4. Buying New Soul - Porcupine Tree (song)
5. Inland Empire - David Lynch (film)
6. Discworld - Terry Pratchett (book series)
7. Grim Fandango - Tim Schafer (game)
8. Ethics of Elfland - G.K. Chesterton (essay)
9. The Mighty Boosh - Noel Fielding, Julian Barratt (TV series)
10. The Raven - Edgar Allen Poe (poem)

It's interesting how the premise made me approach all of these mediums differently - Grim Fandango isn't my #1 game and Inland Empire isn't my #2 movie, but as artworks I view them as such.
