International
Yesterday was a fun, if slightly surreal and exhausting, day. It began with me taping two of the best radio programs in the UK: Start The Week and Nightwaves, both of which seemed to go very well. I then raced around London doing another three or four interviews, all of which were entertaining in different ways. Meanwhile, over in the US, the New York Times was running a profile of me in the Arts section, talking about Ghost Map and Outside.in, and my general pattern of developing ideas with both books and web sites. (I should mention that two of my old sites, Plastic and FEED, like outside.in, were very much collaborations -- the article makes it sound a bit like I created them entirely on my own.) It was very odd to have big article and picture running in the Times, and yet be in London for the entire day. After all, the whole point of having your picture in the Times is to ride the subways all day looking for people reading that part of the paper, and then position yourself directly across from them, so when they look up... I'm kidding -- I don't really do that. But I think about doing it...
Anyhow, the day in London ended with an amazingly fun conversation with Brian Eno that seemed to fly by in about 5 minutes. A podcast version is coming, I'm told, but in the meantime, you can see from these pictures that we attempted to do some kind of elaborate mind control experiment with the audience, entirely using hand gestures.

Steve, for those of us unable to attend your dialog with Brian, please let us know when the podcast becomes available, won't you?

OK first, I am coordinating community involvement in Second Life to help Long Now build a clock/sim and would love to hear what you think as an Everything-Bad-is-Good-for-You-er, and two, where is the podcast of this event?! I want to hear it!
