Robert Scoble of Building 43/Rackspace interviews Etienne Mineur and discusses what may be the coolest iPad app/technology i’ve seen. It’s basically a Disney game that uses plastic figures placed on the iPad screen as pawns in a game. The iPad can actually differentiate between the different character figures when they placed on the screen.
After watching the interview, make sure you visit Etienne’s website. What a creative guy.. “The Living Dead Pixels” is worth a look. 🙂
I’ve know Laura Lorek for many years at the premier tech writer in south Texas. Recently she left her job at the San Antonio Express-News to start SiliconHillsNews.com. Checkout her story on my kickstarter album project!
The world is rapidly changing. Budgets are dropping, sponsors are cutting back.. It seems like everything around us is in decline! Everything except the demand for sports programming!
In this perfect storm of lower budgets but more demand for content, what is a producer to do?
D2 Productions teamed up with live sports producing legend, Joel Kitay to show what the future holds for live sports production..
On the weekend of May 13-15, 2011, D2 Productions teamed up with longtime partner Kitay Productions to produce cutting-edge experimental coverage of college baseball for Conference USA.
Our mission: to produce network-level HD sports coverage within a budget roughly one-third to one-half that of comparable broadcasts.  We headed to Rice University in Houston for a weekend series against Memphis.  We built the production system on Friday, and then produced games on Saturday and Sunday which aired on CBS Sports Network.  Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how we did it.

As I work on my own album and see what goes into writing, recording and performing a good song.. It makes me appreciate the awesomeness of Camille Cortinas! This song is called “A Letter to Myself” and it can be heard in Starbucks across America!!
I’ve gone into the studio and recorded the original songs… I’m pumped about how they came out and I’m ready to finish the album! To help fund this, I’m launching a Kickstarter project! Please check it out and help fun some sweet, sweet recording action!
