iPod | 3:09 | To Embed or Email: click above I did a show on the latent racist tendencies many of us have a few weeks ago, Beach Walk 707, talking about how deeply racism (and other "-isms") reside within our subconscious. Exploring a little further, if we resist the notion and feel guilty or go into denial, then it lingers. Maybe not feeling so burdened or responsible for things before our time can free us to notice when we are acting under the influence, and choose to act differently now.

iPod | 3:17| To Embed or Email: click above Are you like me? Staying up late working on my computer tends to make me hungry. It seems like I am burning calories, and that warrants having a snack. Well, apparently the brain is tricking us a bit by creating a hunger connection without the usual caloric expenditure. So over time, the less you sleep and the more you are thinking the more likely you are to gaining weight! Guess it is time to use my brain to ignore what my brain is telling my tummy.

iPod | 4:35 | To Embed or Email: click above I was thinking about the old Sufi tale about the man and his son, and their changing fortunes/misfortunes, as seen across the span of time. Right now with Podcamp, we have a sponsor Road Runner, who offered us 300 30-second TV spots. Wow, that is an incredible opportunity. Of course, it is also pressure. We've never made a TV commercial before, and had to do this in the span of about 2 weeks. We assembled the "actors" via a Twitter call instead of a casting call, (as described by my friend and participant Neenz)and filmed on location in the Hawaii Convention Center. Shane did his magic on the graphics, and though homemade to be sure, we love it and hope it helps us spread the word about this free event to learn about new media and the social web. All this led up to my next level of understanding about "flow." It is not so much about smooth, which is my first thought, but about movement. Staying in motion without getting stuck on any particular detail or challenge. Water, the original flow, is regularly both calm and turbulent now isn't it?

A short, lyrically strange new song partly based on a dream. Not sure what to say about this one. It lacks a verse/chorus/verse type structure -- it's basically a long verse, a kind of prechorus, and then it slows down and repeats a couple of lines four times amid ocean sounds. My sometimes Internet collaborator Riadsala recorded the bassline I wrote. Less
