Today’s “Stilgherrian Live” is elsewhere

31 July 2009 in Notes, Stilgherrian Live by Stilgherrian | 2 comments

An import reminder about today’s Stilgherrian Live (Metro Screen) Special Edition: It isn’t at my usual Ustream channel but over at Metro Screen’s Viocorp stream, starting at 2pm Sydney time. There’s a CoveritLive chat stream, but we’ll also be monitoring Twitter for the hashtag #mslive (for “Metro Screen Live”, you see). Five hours to go…

Had a work commitment so missed the live show. Was it recorded for on-demand playback?

@Dean: It would have been recorded to go online with Metro Screen’s Short Films. Eventually.

The program from the first course in May only went online 15 June, so I fear it may be weeks until that happens.

That’s a shame, for two reasons:
1. The longer it takes for the students to see the program they made, the less they’ll remember the specifics of what they did and how it ended up looking — and the poorer the learning experience.
2. Not being able to watch the archived program and, perhaps, still being able to comment misses one key point of doing it online: interaction.
As an observer, it did seem that the course really was just about making live multi-camera TV, with the fact that it was streamed merely being a technicality at the end. As far as I know, the course didn’t include anything about interactivity, and ’Pong’s inclusion of Stilgherrian Live in the mix was the only acknowledgement that the live audience even existed.

I’ll have more to say about that when the program goes online.

So how should I cover Budget 2013?

14 May 2013 in Internet, Media, Politics

I’ve commented on Australia’s federal Budget for Crikey every May since Labor took power in 2007. This year will be no exception — but how will I top last year’s rant? Why do politicians and their groupies always go on about the budget “sending a message”? Can’t they just use Twitter, email and the phone [...]

Weekly Wrap 152: LulzSec, Optus, radio and thinking stuff

05 May 2013 in Weekly Wrap

My week Monday 29 April to Sunday 5 May 2013 began gently, with planning and washing and other chores, and just two articles to write. But by Wednesday night I’d also done four radio spots, washed an infinite number of towels, and eaten most of a sheep. Or so it felt. Then Thursday was full [...]
Talking LulzSec and hacktivism on Triple J’s “Hack”

04 May 2013 in Conversations, Internet, Media, Politics

On Tuesday, Triple J’s current affairs program Hack decided to take a look at hacktivism more generally in the wake of Matthew Flannery’s arrest — and boy was it a shemozzle! I was interviewed for half an hour or more. Also interviewed were independent journalist and “chaos magnet” Asher Wolf, and Nigel Phair from the [...]
