Play With It Out Loud

I decided that it would be good to offer the computer-nerd-related audio I do to Hacker Public Radio, so I put together an initial episode describing my motivations and offering a review of my shiny new full-powered laptop (which, I must say, is somewhat easier to edit and process audio on) and the vendor I got it from. (SPOILER: I like them…)

Comments so far (both of them…) are substantially positive, so I’m planning to do new ones monthly.

If you’re interested in such things, you can either go straight over to Hacker Public Radio, or the corner of this server that I set up for discussion at http://hpr.dogphilosophy.net where I have the audio linked for direct listening from the webpage if you are using a modern browser.

I have recently been informed that, apparently, there is at least one person who is not just a member of my immediate family humoring me but who is, nonetheless, subscribed to the RSS feed here and potentially interested in my currently-intermittent episodes of Stir-Fried Stochasticity…

Is this true?

(tap)(tap)(tap) is this thing on?…

Seriously, though, the main reason I’ve been so slow to get around to the next one is that I didn’t think anyone had been listening to the ones I’d done so far, and considering the labor involved in putting an episode together, it’s hard to justify the time if I’m largely just talking to myself.

If there are people out there besides a couple of members of my immediate family^* who want to hear more, please let me know, and I can certainly call the Ninjaologists back from furlough and start up negotiations with the Science Pirates to get things rolling again…

^*(Again, not that I dislike members of my immediate family or anything, but I can talk to them more or less whenever I want…)
