Exploding Rice.
Eric Rice, that is. It's happened at least twice in the past couple of weeks and it's been wonderful.
First read yesterday's Exploding Manifesto.
"Audioblogs, Podcasts, Videoblogs, and Blogs are the same conceptual thing. It's not about the technology, it's about the voice and the fact that we, the everyday people, are making media."
Then earlier: The concept of making media as a basic life skill.
There is a notion that audio and video are difficult media to create, more so than writing. This could directly relate to the fact that we live in a print-oriented world. Letters. Alphabets. It's easy to write a letter. That's what is taught in schools. The creation of media that affects the other senses, sound and vision is not as strongly encouraged.
The question: What if making video (moving pictures) was as natural a process as writing?
Sprinkled in there are a bunch of posts from Northern Voice. All worth a gander.
