- CHUO board of directorsI am the chair of the board of directors for the CHUO radio station. We are cooking up some greatness.If you have any questions about CHUO, community radio, or how to get involved, please be in touch.TeachingI teach radio students at Algonquin College the basics of video production.Around The BlockAround the Block was a community radio show on CHUO that focused on hyper-local Ottawa news. It was started by journalist Nick Taylor-Vaisey.Half-way through the show's history, I took over. You can find highlights from the show here.Though it's no longer produced, the spirit of hyper-local news lived on at OpenFile Ottawa, where Nick was the editor and I was a contributor. Nick now writes for Macleans.The News is Not FunThis is a talk originally delivered during the Northern Voice conference in Vancouver. It was delivered again for the monthly Dirty Rectangles meet-up in Ottawa.You can find it here.It's about:
- The definition of "fun"
- The idea of "meditative gameplay"
- How we can introduce video game elements to publishing and reading
Public data artI have some ideas about turning public GPS bus data into art. You can hear one of them by watching this video.This app is currently under some form of production.Ottawa DNAOttawaDNA is an event that brings together developers and community leaders to discuss urban planning issues in Ottawa.It was created by Martin Canning, Nick Taylor-Vaisey, Kevin O'Donnell, and Jason Pearman.I recorded and had a small hand in organizing the event.
