NOTE: Pardon the third-person writing (I feel like Bob Dole talking about Bob Dole ;-).

Raincity Studios' Community Evangelist Dave O riffs with Leo Laporte about do-it-yourself art and self publishing for personal, creative expression on the Lab with Leo TV show. Like old pals, they explore Dave's collection of ditto-ed newsletters, punk rock fanzines, gig handbills, well-traveled cassettes, and other projects while riffing about remixing ephemeral objects in digital art and participating in the new artistic renaissance.

Checking in from the basement of CBC's Vancouver headquarters as we kick off an event which is bound to be quite remarkable - the CBC Digital Development Labs.

This morning was introductions by the entrepreneurial-minded attendees chosen to display and refine their ideas for possible development by CBC. I'm participating as a mentor (along with others) here to advise, gut-check, collaborate with (and learn from) the emerging visionaries.

Our secret lair (which is very cool by the way - set up with a variety of workspaces, conversation breakout areas, Mac labs, gamer stations - feels like jPod) is also loaded with industry types acting more as observers to see how projects come together in the new media paradigm.

created on 周二, 2007-08-07 12:33 About a month ago I went on the Leo Laporte show to discuss Creative Commons. Below is the video (holy crap it's already been watched online 1,600+ times!) . Since then I've also recorded sessions on Bryght and Facebook Apps but they haven't aired yet. I'll post them here when they do. Tomorrow I'm going back on the show (twice) to talk about 1) Social Software and Online Communities and 2) Protecting Your Privacy Online.

Posting this is a couple weeks overdue but I'm trying to play catchup and get my digital houses in order before embarking on Bryght World Tour 2007.




Also (Mom) here's a couple pics of me on the Lab with Leo set.
