THE ANDREW OLLE MEDIA LECTURE

I've had the fortune of tuning into ABC's The Andrew Olle Media Lecture this evening. John Doyle, the speaker had this fantastic speech. I didn't understand half on its references to Australian media persons but one can still pick up on the gist. It's all in the joy of listening a talented individual speak, with humour.

Download the mp3 please. It's good intelluctual stuff.
Here's 10 years of other Lectures.

Good stuff, can't say enough.

Mansfield Holiday

Bought a 8mm silent cine camera at the Camberwell flea market this morning. This is so damn cool 'cos I wanted one all the more after watching one of John Mayer's mtv. It seems to be in working condition but I've yet to find the manual online. Roll of film costs like A$20+-, dev-ing unknown, 8mm projector searching. Hahha, I'm still a still camera person, but vids are fun to make too. But to do it retro style... hahahah. There's a 8mm shop at glenroy. Will check it out.
