One of my favorite things to do on the Internet is to go to horoscope.com and listen to the shill psychic videos that play automatically. This snippet above is from one of the best guys.

New Projects

Hi there -

I should probably either delete this blog, or change its name to "Audio Every Six Months." Anyhow, I'm considering new considerations for Audio Everyday since the initial purpose of this blog was really well-served. It was fun making those little audio snippets. 

I'm working on a couple new pieces right now. For the moment, though, take a gander at a project I co-produced for the UnionDocs collaborative last year: Of Birds and Boundaries. 

By: Annie Berman
Audio Story: Laura Mayer (that'sa me)
Video: Matthew Yoka 

 

 

 

Of Birds and Boundaries: A filmmaker’s search for the Williamsburg’s Eruv (a string the defines the boundaries of the Chasidic neighborhood and redefines public space as a shared private space) leads her to ‘Marty,’ an anonymous Chasid who volunteers to help with research. The result is the development of an unexpected relationship, a cross-cultural exchange between two unlikely collaborators.

 

Flu?

I wish there was a way to record the thrush of fever and headache in my head,right now. 

I felt like I was getting sick on Friday - so much so that I was sent home from work. Yet I still went to the UnionDocs holiday party. Bad idea. I awoke Saturday with a 103 degree fever that still hasn't broken. 

WFMU! Et cetera!

Two points of interest...

1. I'm still helping out with WFMU's Too Much Information with Benjamen Walker. There's a little audio thang I recorded about being TERRIBLE with social media for this week's episode. I'm calling it the anti-social network. Lissen to my piece, here, in addition to great stuff from Andrea Silenzi and Noah Apple (as well as others).

2. I've joined the UnionDocs collaborative program from 2010. I'm excited about this. Hopefully I'll be able to find a way to put Audio Everyday to good use in terms of documenting project development &c.

Too Much Information goes to ROFLcon

Wanna know a whole lot about the Internet? I've got a solution for you.

I went to ROFLcon to report for Too Much Information with Benjamen Walker. You can hear the show here! 

Back into the archives

I am procrastinating! I am procrastinating and going through old audio everydays. Producing these little pieces every day in the Fall of 2008 was such an amazing exercise. I've been feeling pretty drained lately. Maybe getting back on this wagon will help to revitalize? Remind me what I love doing again?

Yes, perhaps. 

Anyhow, here's some I totally forgot about from November '08.

Peggy's Songs (Remixed -- from a CD my friend found on the sidewalk) 

Why I Love TV News Programs

Oh I see it now, The Doppler Effect

Angry

Police Scanner Mash

A break from your sorta-regularly scheduled programming

Spent all day today working on audiyo for TMi on WFMU. I took a break to stumble thru Youtube. This guy hates a lot of things, and I agree with most of them...except for this one.

How Are You Doing Project

I've made a new How Are You Doing Project (the first in a few months) entitled Lonelyhearts

Download Lonelyhearts

I've got a few more podcasts for The How Are You Doing Project. I'm considering putting the project on a hiatus, to reconsider why it's valuable, and where it can go from here (specifically in terms of multimedia presentations). I'd love to hear any thoughts you may have. Thanks, as always, for listening!
