Reading My Book Aloud 001

shane@yonderman.com (Shane Shennan) — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 19:19:21 GMT

I completed my poetry book, desiring to touch sky, some time ago, but I haven't done much with it. Also, in recent months, I have not consistently followed my passion, which is to record MP3 files of my voice and give them away to people. In order to start 2009 on the right foot, I want to podcast my way through my poetry book. I'm going to adopt the quick-and-dirty recording style used so effectively by author Cory Doctorow of the craphound.com podcast. So, without further ado, here are the first five poems from desiring to touch sky. 1. Old Man Snoring 2. Stages 3. Homeless Man, Queen Street West 4. Walk Ing on Snow 5. Disquiet Shane Shennan www.yonderman.com shane@yonderman.com

Yondercast Mix Tape 003 - Acoustic Guitars

shane@yonderman.com (Shane Shennan) — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 03:17:12 GMT

I couldn't sleep, so I got up and started making a playlist for a future episode of my podcast. For a while I've wanted to do an episode of all acoustic guitar songs. The acoustic guitar speaks to me in a way that the electric doesn't. Electric guitars pump me up, while acoustic guitars give me permission to be vulnerable. For the last few hours, I've been listening to tracks and choosing the ones that touch me most deeply. It's not just about the guitar; it's certainly about the singer as well. Good singers teach me to swim deep rivers. Dusty Porch by John Williams, found on Magnatune. Coming Home by Freight, found on the Podsafe Music Network. Brooke's Waltz by Don Ross, found on IODA Promonet. The Day That I Die by Katy Wehr, found on the Podsafe Music Network. Shine by Justin Roth, found on the Podsafe Music Network. Waiting For Someday by Lee Alexander, found on the Podsafe Music Network. Something Beautiful by Leah Martensen, found on the Podsafe Music Network.
