Circuitous Conversations with Bill & Dan

We talk about the future, including some guesses/predictions, space exploration, the value of human life, and a few other bits.

We start talking about what it's like to move (as in relocate), and then get into the particulars of collecting - baseball cards, toys, art, etc.

This week, we talk about gear. Does high end gear have anything to do with making something good? How much stuff should you bring to the gig? What about the equipment used by the artists we look up to and admire?

This week, we were joined by Mike "mossmann" Ossmann. Mike did most of the talking, and Bill did most of the asking, covering a few interesting topics, including: hacking together an optical-electric guitar, wireless security, and bluetooth.

We talk about printing a bit. We also talk about having special guests.

This week, we talk about fandom, Comic-Con, the Social Network, and a few other odds and ends.

We start off talking about what we think about comments and user-ratings on the internet, and then we get into some photo-specific questions from listeners.

Taking a break from photo talk this week, we get into the various aspects of watching tv without having a television, using the internet. And computers.

Yay, camera talk. We start out talking about the differences between sensor sizes, and get into a bunch of other related stuff.

We start out talking about some heavier stuff - leaving your mark on the world, why it's worth doing anything despite the fact that we're all going to die in the end anyway, and the difference between doing everything by yourself vs. being part of a team.
