Impromptu episode 5.2

Stilgherrian — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 14:00:32 +0000

I just did a quick Stilgherrian Live Alpha (episode 5.2) from my hotel room in Canberra. The recording stopped after about 10 minutes, so it’s in two parts called, oddly enough, part 1 and part 2. Topics covered include the Politics & Technology Forum, Internet and telephone coverage along the Hume Highway, and what happened to my beard.

Impromptu Stilgherrian Live Alpha

Stilgherrian — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 11:00:05 +0000

I did an impromptu Stilgherrian Live Alpha from Kelly’s On King, our local “Irish” theme pub, yesterday afternoon. There was a network drop-out, so after a few minutes of episode 5.1A you’ll need to grab the bulk of the program at episode 5.1B. The video starts late: there’s just a black screen at the beginning. But the quality improves noticeably as the program continues. Enjoy!

Clever forged videos, please ignore

Stilgherrian — Sat, 21 Jun 2008 23:27:00 +0000

The two videos on Qik, here and here, which purport to show me and others at the Ancient Briton Hotel in Glebe last night are clever forgeries. While rather convincing, and certainly a credit to the forger, they should be ignored.

Maybe episode 5 happens tonight?

Stilgherrian — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 23:22:12 +0000

Given the evidence on my Twitter stream today, I’d probably better do an episode of Stilgherrian Live Alpha tonight. Maybe 9.30pm Sydney time? Does that conflict with anyone’s TV viewing?

Ill, getting bettter

Stilgherrian — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 21:13:58 +0000

I’ve been ill for the last week or so, which is why there hasn’t been much activity. Recovering OK. More soon.

Nah, we’ll skip this week

Stilgherrian — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 08:02:49 +0000

The tail will not wag the dog. I’ve decided that Stilgherrian Live Alpha will not happen tonight. Thursday evenings have proved “difficult”. I’ll think about better times.

Episode 5 tonight, probably

Stilgherrian — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 19:58:39 +0000

There may or may not be an episode of Stilgherrian Live Alpha tonight at 9.30pm Sydney time. I’ve got a bit of a schedule crunch and may have to skip this week. Heck, it’s my program, I’ll do what I like.

Episode 4 tonight

Stilgherrian — Wed, 28 May 2008 23:16:11 +0000

Yes, episode 4 of Stilgherrian Live Alpha will happen at 9.30pm tonight Sydney time. Will it be as disturbing as last week’s? There’s only one way to find out… well two, actually, ‘cos you could just ask someone. That shows how silly that stock advertising phrase really is.

At Mobile Content World tomorrow

Stilgherrian — Wed, 28 May 2008 08:17:33 +0000

For my sins, I now have a media pass to the Mobile Content World Australasia conference at Sydney’s Star City Casino. I missed Day 1 today, but from the programme Day 2 will be more interesting from my perspective. Centrally-planned control-freak TV organisations and telcos try to control what’s on mobile phone screens. Fail. We control what’s on our screens, thank you very much! From one clueful attendee today, “Folks all seem like deers in the iPhone headlights.”

Eurovision at the Pub succesful, but a failure

Stilgherrian — Tue, 27 May 2008 18:57:26 +0000

Last Sunday’s Eurovision at the Pub was a fun night, but it didn’t go as planned. We couldn’t get the Uconnect free wireless Internet access extended past 8pm, and my computer died anyway. So no live audio commentary or even Twitter from me. I also shot some video which will be edited into some semblance of… something… on the weekend. The Snarky Platypus explains the concept of The Mid-Tempo Gap.

Yeah, this is hyperconnectivity!

Stilgherrian — Mon, 26 May 2008 01:16:39 +0000

Did someone say we’re hyperconnected? Oh yeah, Mark Pesce did last week. And you know what? He did a keynote presentation at a conference this morning and someone’s blogged about it before he’d even left the room. And now I’ve blogged about the blog. And he still hasn’t left the room.

Episode 3 online!

Stilgherrian — Fri, 23 May 2008 00:51:29 +0000

For better or for worse, episode 3 of Stilgherrian Live Alpha is online over at Ustream. I did rant at the camera as threatened. I went for 45 minutes instead of 25 to 30 because I was looking at the wrong clock. I have destroyed my personal brand forever. Chat logs to be reviewed later.
