Oh yes... amid a flurry of ideas about where to go with the website, I figured I'd best claim the blogspot while I could. Methinks I'll make this place for longer-winded, less relevant rantings about the project, and maybe even life in general! I'll start bugging you, you internauts, to start leaving comments...
Reflecting on the recording of mtl2012_episode4:
Collective writing is an interesting process. Depending on who is involved, who is trying to work together, it can be painful or fun. It always yields a unique result. As part of the Coop Sur Genereux's Skillshare Weekend, I facilitated a "radio from the FUTURE" workshop, based on the mtl2012 productions. Participants were invited to develop a character that inhabited the post-"economic and ecological catastrophe that completely changed life as we knew it" island of Montreal. Instead of questioning and debating the details of this world, we listened to episode3, and started writing quietly. Over the next two hours, we shared the thoughts, activities, and lives of our new characters, and developed questions that they might like to be asked in an interview. This process worked really well, and I'm really happy and eager to be producing the recordings this week. Also as part of the workshop, all three participants had a chance to learn how to use a portable mini-disc recorder. They did a good job too! I'll bug them to leave their own comments, and reflections on the workshop, and responses to the finished product.
