OK…so, you may have been following my trials and tribulations trying to post my first podcast episode. Well, I think I’ve got the tech part of things worked out.
So, last week I was as CCCCs in San Francisco. It was a great conference and our panel, Labor Rhetoric and Academic Organizing, went extraordinarily well. We had a pretty packed room and it was a privilege to be presenting alongside such awesome colleagues: Mary Boland, Seth Kahn, Amy Lynch-Biniek, Rachel Riedner, and Eileen Schell (our respondent). I was also quite pleased with the vigorous discussion following our papers. That discussion continued on over to the Serrano Hotel for our CCCCs Labor Caucus Interest Group. Truly a great way to cap off the day.
As you may have seen, I decided to use this year’s CCCCs to enter the world of video blogging (vlogging) on our
composition and rhetoric blog. That was fun and has got me on a bit of a web 2.0 kick this week (don’t even get me started about Nings). As I wrote earlier, I’ve got a rather ambitious tech agenda for the fall and I’ve submitted a tech request for some equipment that I hope will come through. I also found out that I still have a small chuck of money from a Teachnology Grant I received a few years ago for WritersBlogK, a project I undertook with Aaron Barlow. So, it looks like I’m going to pick up the Snowball
In the meantime, I thought I would take the leap and try my hand at podcasting this week. After a couple days of failure, I think I’ve finally got the hang of it. Since I just presented a paper at CCCCs, I thought that would be a good test case. So, here it is folks: “Rhetoric of Advocacy: Curricular Labor and Democratic Futures.” In addition to the paper I presented, I also included a bunch of “notes” that were in an earlier draft but had to be cut due to time.
