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.
