**Note: a few minutes of the panel got lost because the camera fell off the table. ;) So don't be jarred about 16 and a half minutes in when it all of a sudden jumps ahead. ** Here is the video of the panel I was on at the BlogHer 2009 Conference in Chicago on July 24, 2009. Description from blogher.com: --- Identity/Passions: LifeBlogging Outside the Lines: When you’re not a Geek, a Political Wonk or a MommyBloggerBlogging started as a geek’s game, and by 2004 political bloggers were making w...
First pole video w/ my new Kodak Zi6! The quality is way better than my previous videos, even in lower light. And check it out, I succeeded at the Dirty Downward Dog (now if only I had remembered to do it at the part where the song says "I made that ass jump").
In what is likely the final video of this series, I talk about the Apple IIe and the Mac Plus.Apologies for the camera shaking at the beginning, but it wasn't drastic enough to make me want to go back and reshoot. Hopefully it's not drastic enough to make anyone seasick.
Macintosh PowerBook 145B, Farallon PhoneNet connectors and LocalTalk, and a brief rant about perceived obsolescence.
In 1998, I had an almost-two-week internship (or something not unlike an internship) at Flagpole Magazine in Athens, Ga., for my high school senior project. It was a valuable experience, and taught me, among other things, that I did not want to be a journalist after all. But I met some great people and had a fun time overall, and at the end of it I made this video. There was no editing whatsoever; I had no idea how to edit and was sure it involved expensive and complicated equipment that I wou...
Lots to cover in three and a half minutes: Macintosh System 7.5, AOL 2.5 (and 2.7), and the Global Village.
Part 2 in my ongoing series. This time, I talk about MacProject.
The first in my video series about all the old computer crap that's taking up space in my closet.
Yet another Level 6 pole recital. This time around, we learned a routine. Most of this is the routine, with some improv at the end and a few of my own unique touches throughout. I missed the climb to invert I was trying to do but I tried to play it off... I think I succeeded.One thing that I'm always struck by when I watch these videos is how much quicker everything is than how it felt at the time. For example, I felt like I held that lotus forever, but really it was only a couple seconds. I'm...
We finished yet another session of Level 6 (previously called Level 5/6) today. Here's my performance! I don't think it's my best, but then, I'm my own worst critic. I still haven't gotten over the extra nervousness when I know I'm being recorded; maybe one day I'll be able to forget about the camera completely. Sorry it's a little dark and grainy... but I would rather have a slightly lower quality video than dance under insanely bright lights! New moves in this video: The hangman (photo here,...
