Ep 3: Dark-Side Attacker Tactics
I quickly recorded this to ensure I created this video on the 1st of November (in Australia). I did this to start the VloMo rule: one vlog every day in November. In this video I chat about a tactic that under-handed people use. I think I give the impression that these people are a bit [...]
Ep 2: Community of Spirit
Vlog number 2! And I’m already a day late! *sigh*. Anyway. Today I have a quick chat about what sort of creative projects appeal to me now and how that relates to where I’m at artistically… Community of Spirit from christydena on Vimeo.
Ep 1: Hello World!
Here is my first personal vlog. I wasn’t going to post this one as I am soooo slow in it. It is the day after I had flown back from London, after a trip to Seattle via Australia! But, I thought I better have an explanatory video. I didn’t say it in the video, but [...]

Below is a time guide showing you topics Tim [...]
Transdisciplinarity Reading List
Jess Laccetti mentioned on Twitter that she is starting a transdisciplinarity reading list. Transdisciplinarity is a relatively young research approach, and so finding information isn’t easy. The following list is not at all comprehensive, but they are some of my favourites. It is important to note that despite the area being somewhat new, it already has (as is [...]
Techniques for Segmenting Content Across Media
Hello everyone! Today we’ll delve into segmentation techniques. By segmentation I refer to the various ways unique content can be continued across different media platforms. This doesn’t mean cutting up content created for a single session (a feature film for instance) and then delivering it in parts (although you can do that!). But here I’m [...]
An archive of my old LAMP ppts
A few years ago I was lucky to be invited by Gary Hayes to be a mentor for a new laboratory that was being developed by the Australian Film, Television and Radio School. Those were the heady days of the Laboratory of Advanced Media Production (LAMP), when this great range of mentors and participants (and [...]
Second Nature: CFP
Boy, I’m a bad member of an Editorial Committee. The CFP for the inaugural edition of new open-access peer-reviewed journal is out and I neglected to post about it. (I micro-blogged it to Twitter, but the small percentage of academics in Twitter makes the attempt almost worthless). The journal is Second Nature: The International Journal [...]
