So I'm redesigning a course I've taught a few times now (CMNS 253, which I'm teaching right now, too) to transform it from a lecture/tutorial format that uses an all-in-one wiki/blog/CMS (Howard Rheingold's Social Media Classroom build of Drupal) into, well, a lecture/lab course in writing for social, mobile and ...

I've created a twitter poll (something I should be doing more regularly) asking a question of central importance to this blog, to my life, my creative pursuits, and something that's been on everybody's mind since the dawn of music (when wazzat?): how should musicians get paid? If I haven't given ...

I'm attending (and presenting at) Open Web Vancouver next week, celebrating (and problematizing) with many others the many affordances and limitations of open source and open formats in our digitally mediated world. My talk will likely be rather policy-wonkish, as a current concern of mine (and a crucial chapter in ...

This is actually a pretty compelling experience, I'm finding - I wonder what their curatorial model is - can't find confirmation of how they filter the twits. Go there live now. Full twemewar happening here.

OK - daughter's asleep...continuing on with recordings of similar vintage (1987 and pre-), to ensure the oldest tapes I have are salvaged first.
More Bucket of Slugs, of course. Unlike yesterday's monochromatically raucous Carnival EP, the follow up LP, entitled Pacifism, oscillates between whispered and barked songs. It appears that parents ...

So I'm diving straight into my comprehensives now. I'm building lists and checking them twice (and more). While building these reading lists is in many ways a very personal journey, I've decided to blog about the process so that I might get feedback from unexpected locales, harnessing the "wisdom of ...

Nice to be back in the swim of things. I just put a final report out the door on a research project that I'd been working on for 14 months. It was a difficult project - one that didn't always go as planned, that got intermittently sidelined by other events ...

Tonight and tomorrow I'll be mind-moshing with local geekerati at Barcamp Vancouver. If you're signed up to be there too, come up and innerdooce yourself (you already know me by sight, or can figure it out via flickr or facebook, can't you?). I always like to meet readers and fellow ...

Heya. I am presenting in a panel at AOIR this year (the title of my presentation/paper is "The Technical Micropolitics of the Online Music Industry, 1997-2007", abstract here). For those of you who've followed my blog, you'll know something of what to expect, except that I'll be strictly framing up ...

I delivered a lecture today for my 200 level Communication class on "Copyright, Commerce, and the Creative Commons". It might need work around its rougher edges still, but I'm kinda modestly proud to have gotten it into the shape it's in now. The emphasis is on (1) the historicization of ...
