Hey Jan, do you know about this? The Online Guide to Whistling Records via BasicHip via Oddio OverPlay.

"The Trouble with Harry" is the title of one of my favorite hitchcock flicks.  It’s also the title of this little piece by Elmo Tanner.

There has been some discussion lately in the Yahoo Videoblogging Group about "attitude" and the political correctness of people’s replies to certain questions, particularly questions about sustainability.

Instead of discussing it here further, I offer this interesting documentary audio recording (mp3) that I found in the Internet Archive about "New Music in Los Angeles".  I think it is an interesting story about culture clash between refugee creatives from Europe and "Hollywood types" in the mid-1930’s.

Food for thought and good for you.  I think we can learn much about culture clashes within videoblogging from this.  Remember, "those who fail to study the past are doomed to repeat it", or so they say.

I posted an article on "Collaborative Video" at spinflow.org, please check it out; I’d really appreciate your feedback (or pushback!  I like that word.)

It covers a wide rage of group efforts centered around video in general and videoblogging in particular.

Here is clip from yesterday’s videoblogging video conference in which Nathan Peters is discussing music and video collaboration.

Just one of the many topics dicussed.

I finally got a chance to get back into playing around with SMIL a bit more.  I have cobbled together a small web service to allow playing mp3’s from WebJay playlists while watching images pulled from Flickr RSS feeds.  I’m surprised that I haven’t seen examples of this already.

Anyone know of any similar projects?

I still have a bit more to do to it to make it "user friendly", but once I do, I’ll post something for everyone to play with.  The goal is a simple app that will select the music and images based on a "tag" (we can use del.icio.us for tags in WebJay).  Too much fun.
