Architecture Talk

Got the microphone out and set up.....

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 18:30:42 PDT

But I am running up against a deadline for an international project culminating in an overseas trip in 2 weeks. Unlikely that I will get to anything until I return in 3 weeks.

Sorry.

Greetings from your long lost host.

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 19:22:54 PDT

Hello everyone,

While checking settings of this project that was set aside, I was very surprised to find that there are nearly 500 folks still clinging to the feed, apparently awaiting some sign of life. This is very flattering, especially because that is far more subscribers than the average home-grown podcast. Having promised more discussions and episodes over one year ago, the fact that so many of you have maintained a link is inspiration enough to re-kindle my interest in the digital media of architecture. The unfortunate part is that there are so many spectacular interviews and discussions that have been missed over the last year.

This is a one person show so far, and the baby (almost toddler now) and a demanding new job have kept me away. Thanks for keeping subscribed, and by that simple act, providing me with the inspiration to get back at it.

ed. It is taking me longer that I suspected....

Now that the baby is sleeping through the night.....

there might be the opportunity to put together a show, but work is exceptionally busy right now and there will be a personal announcement in the near future.

It is surprising how many folks are still subscribed. I hope to reward you for your patience with interesting new discussions.

Thank you,
Kevin S.

The MP3 files have a new home. Please contact me via archtalk@gmail.com to report any missed links or problems.

Bandwidth Woes!!!

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Wed, 21 Sep 2005 13:40:31 PDT

Unfortunately, I have exceeded my bandwidth allotment, and there needs to be some changes.

The most recent show will be the only one listed in rss feed and in i-tunes, and all others will be archived and accessible only through the web log page.

Sorry, I hope to fix the problem in the near future.

The Timelessness of Architecture....

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Tue, 23 Aug 2005 18:35:08 PDT

Now that I-Tunes is operational, I have recorded some new content for the next show. It requires some editing, but please be assured that the show will soon be back after its long summer vacation.

Kevin

I-tunes is here!

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Thu, 18 Aug 2005 10:24:20 PDT

And what a mess it seems to be making. I can't even view the feedburner xml at the monemt, and neither i-podder nor i-tunes can find the feed either.

Please be patient, and things should return to normal once we get through the initial rush of subscribers downloading every show.

For any new listeners out there, welcome! Please do not be discouraged at the inconsistant timing of the shows. I attempt consistancy in the thoughtfulness of the content, not the frequency of the posts. Please stay subscribed, and something new will show up sooner or later.

Switch to Feedburner!

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Thu, 11 Aug 2005 09:07:26 PDT

For everyone who is subscribed to the 'Atom' feed, I am switching to a feed produced by feedburner. Please re-orient your podcast software to the following address:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/ArchitectureTalk

This will make the process of posting pod-casts much easier, and increases the likelihood that there will be new content. It will also allow the feed to be listed in the infamous i-tunes pod-casting. If you do not update the feed, all of the old shows will most likely disappear from your pod casting software.

Thanks for your time.

AT Six: Mobility

archtalk@gmail.com (Kevin Schellenbach) — Wed, 21 Sep 2005 20:39:56 PDT

Architecture Talk has gone mobile. Does this prove the architecture is inexorably linked to place and context? Only more research will tell, but this does prove that the topic of the next show is never what I predict it will be.
