More podcasts

So I've recorded a few more podcasts for EDF, had my accent described as 'plummy Aussie', and also put together a podcast of two of the stories from the A Foreign Country Anthology. And I youtubed a review of a USB condenser mic. It's nice to be between prizegivings and have some time to take a breather and work on my playing-with-toys skills. The next project is working out how successfully a $10 RCA switcher, $20 usb capture device, a $40 audio mixer, 2 mics and 3 cameras can be connected to a laptop to enable multi-camera studio-style shooting in the classroom. I *think* it'll work OK, but it remains to be seen how smoothly the switch on the RCA switcher moves and whether there'll be too much loss of signal during switching... 

Awesome weekend

My lovely parents drove down and stayed with us for the weekend so we could sneak off to a winery on Saturday for a tour.
