Well the semes­ter has just started and I’ve been try­ing to think up new ways to stay engaged and moti­vated in school, so I’m going to syn­the­size school with the geeky things that I love to do like blog­ging. With that in mind, I’m going to (attempt) to record and post every HUM 324 lec­ture this semes­ter here on. You’ll find them all under this cat­e­gory, and if you want to sub­scribe in your RSS reader, here’s the feed. And Com­ing Soon: This will be a pod­cast, which you will be able to sub­scribe to in iTunes. The lec­ture out­lines are posted as well.

Oh, and while you’re at it, if you use this, add me on the book­Face.

Yes, I’m boot­leg­ging acad­e­mia and pod­cast­ing it. ZOMG! Tech­nol­ogy FTW!

I’m des­per­ately try­ing to fig­ure out the name of this song. Any help? Thanks to @aidanz and @bentmatches for com­ing up with the title! It’s a Chris Knox cover called “My Only Friend,” per­formed by Bon­nie “Prince” Billy / Will Old­ham, and it’s going to be on a forth­com­ing com­pi­la­tion to ben­e­fit Chris after a stroke he had last month. You heard it hear first.

This was recorded at Diana Wortham on August 14, 2009 dur­ing the Trans­fig­u­ra­tions music festival.

In a rare solo per­for­mance, Will Old­ham of Bon­nie “Prince” Billy per­formed at the Diana Wortham The­ater in Asheville, NC as part of Har­vest Record’s Trans­fig­u­ra­tions music fes­ti­val. Recorded with an iPod Touch and head­phone mic. I’m not an audio wiz­ard (yet) so you may need to turn up the volume.
