    Still Going.

    Though we didn't make the goal here, I am continuing the fundraising campaign in another way. Email me at aewmedia@gmail.com if you'd like to know more.

    Bad News, Good News

    Well it looks like I was a little too ambitious with my time frame, but I am not going to give up. This campaign will remain open until the end because sometimes crazy things happen. Who knows?

    Just because this campaign may not be successful does not mean I will not continue trying to get the project completed. Contact me at aewmedia@gmail.com and I will let you know where to find the next fundraising attempt once it is underway, if it becomes necessary.

    A Rough Draft

    Here is an example of my style of presenting interview material. I will get better as I do it more often, of course, but I'm reasonably pleased with this so far. Enjoy.

    The Appetizer Will Be Coming Soon

    I was at an Occupy Coos Bay event on Monday and got a few short clips of decent audio. There was a little too much road noise in much of what I recorded, but I have enough to put together a taste of what to expect from the project once I get it rolling. I should have that audio up some time late tonight. I played most of it in my Monday night show, if you want a sample of what the weekly live show will sound like.

    Stay tuned, folks. I will try to continue updating every two or three days.

    Thanks for the support, Mat. Help spread the word. We can make this happen if we all pull together.

    A Silver Lining

    Alright, so I went to the location where Occupy Florence gathers, but nobody showed up. I waited for about an hour before I left. No interview to be had, but there is good news. Tomorrow I will be Occupying the Port of Coos Bay with the group down there and might be able to get some good audio during that and then an interview or two afterward. My fingers are metaphorically crossed.

    First Interviews May Be Coming Soon

    I now have a portable field recorder and will be taking it with me to an Occupy Florence (Oregon) event on Saturday. I will attempt to get an interview with one or more participants afterward. I will post it here after I have edited and commented on it myself, so that you can hear a bit of what I'm planning for this webseries.

    Stay tuned. I should have an update with audio in two days.
