Oh Angela

Le vidéo-podcast d'Angela Merkel

Pendant que Christiane se prépare à reprendre la barre à la SRC, la chancelière Allemande Angela Merkel livre aujourd’hui son premier vidéo-podcast, lequel vous pouvez voir ici (autre lien ici).

Moi qui étais agréablement surprise hier à l’annonce du premier podcast créé par un gouvernement, et encore plus par le fait qu’une femme soit à la tête de ce même gouvernement, je déchante maintenant allégrement. Le vidéo-podcast d’Angela est ennuyant, fait à la manière d’un discours traditionnel devant une belle photo cartonnée du Reichstag. Conservateur et classique, un vidéo-podcast qui n’a rien de très excitant.

German Chancellor to launch podcast

“As the German federal government announced today, Angela Merkel is to start her very own video-podcast. From June 8th on, interested citizens can subscribe to the chancellor’s feed and will be informed about the state of the nation on a weekly basis.”

via wmmna and spiegel online.

German bloggers often complained about germany being so far away on the web 2.0 scene: now they’ll be far advanced with their chancellor being – i think – the first one using video-podcast to reach citizens.

Pod #62! How new web technologies are changing the music industry

in many ways.. but here i concentrate the use of new web technologies such as blogs, podcasts and webspaces like myspace to help the spreading of new music and the uprising of independant artists. This is done following an interview i gave last week to a US based company doing a report on indie musicians using new web technologies to promote their work.

Main points i talk about are the connections created between the consumers and producers, these new relationships created and how these might be shaping a new ‘by faith’ system.

Adisq : Les Rencontres québécoises de l’industrie de la musique

J’y serai en tant que paneliste le 19 avril prochain pour parler de podcasting (atelier 3) :

Baladodiffusion : mode passagère ou débouché viable pour l’industrie de la musique ?
Il semble se produire avec les podcasts la même évolution qu’avec Internet lui-même: initialement le lieu d’une liberté d’expression un peu anarchique ouverte à tous, le médium est en voie de s’institutionnaliser et d’être pris en charge par des acteurs importants de l’industrie. En fait, cohabitent aujourd’hui et des podcasts de sous-sol et des podcasts de haute qualité technique produits par des joueurs établis de la scène radiophonique. Quelle est la vraie nature du phénomène ? ” Partir ” avec une émission de radio sur son baladeur numérique et la faire jouer quand bon nous semble représente-t-il vraiment une façon prometteuse de consommer le produit radiophonique et, par extension, le produit musical ? Qu’en est-il de l’application des différents régimes de droits à ce médium ? Cet atelier constituera à la fois un ” podcast 101 ” qui permettra de bien comprendre l’outil et une discussion sur le potentiel de celui-ci à partir de l’expérience de certains baladodiffuseurs reconnus.

L’atelier 4 promet lui aussi d’être très intéressant. Espérons que j’aurai la chance de serrer la pince de PK à 17h…

*

I’ll be on the podcasting panel (workshop 3, Podcasting: Passing Trend or Viable Opportunity for the Music Industry?) on april 19th. Let’s see if i’ll be able to shake hands with the head of Quebec’s biggest media industry, Quebecor, who will be giving the keynote speach following the panels.

Since 1995, ADISQ had been organizing les Rencontres, a get-together of professionals from the Québec recording, entertainment and radio industries.

Every spring, this major gathering provides an opportunity for all the players in these sectors to focus on – and share ideas about – the most relevant matters of the moment: regulatory framework, new technologies, changing business models, etc.

Les Rencontres 2005 will take place on April 19 and 20, 2006 in the Marché Bonsecours Ballroom, in Old Montreal.

TAKEAWAY: Festival of do it your self Media

TAKEAWAY: Festival of do it your self Media Finally a geek workshop for non geeks. Would love to go but i’m afraid with SXSW in the same month this could be a little problematic. Not directly related, i have seen this book in Berlin and it looked quite interesting.

A silent revolution is taking place. More and more people are transforming themselves from media consumers to producers – using the new tools, software and technologies now at their disposal.

From the expanding realm of free and open source software (FLOSS), to peer-to-peer (P2P) distribution and ‘pervasive’ mobile and locative technologies, the possibilities exist as never before to create and disseminate our opinions and experiences through our own media.

TAKEAWAY, the Festival of do it your self Media, will help you to understand what it’s all about and how to take part in the revolution.

Learn – how to make your own mark in new media: create a blog, videolog or podcast; install and use free operating systems; learn about free software; explore ideas for distributing and marketing your work – and how to get paid for it.

Talk – to those who are making the tools and those who are finding new and innovative ways to use them.

Listen – to lectures and panel discussions which will introduce concepts of Free Software, Open Source and the Peer-to-Peer approach in interactive design, learning and teaching.

Discuss – the implications of ‘free’ and P2P culture, changes in the way we create culture and art, and how we will be able to live, and learn, in the new media environment.

29-31 March 2006: @ DANA Centre, Science Museum, 165 Queen’s Gate, South Kensington, London.

Turning podcasting into conversations

People interested in this topic should check out Julien’s blog where he explains the idea behind all this. This project could create a new use of podcasting, creating a real conversation between listeners, thus changing the way podcasting has been used up to today.

New Qc made podcast

So nice, you gotta hear 9 years old John talk about how he learned html and the first computer he used!

The first podcast by Chris and John Campbell where we talk about beginnings such as computers we’ve used, the internet, early audio recording and the first day of school. It’s a casual chat between father and son. The show was recorded on a minidisc recorder in Wolfville, Nova Scotia on December 11, 2005 and was edited on the last day of 2005.

This just remembers me again why love podcasting, why i love the internet and the way it allows people to create all kind of content. This is awesome.

get it here!
