Lucien, first, thanks for the links to so much cool stuff. You must spend hours sifting through cyberspace.
You said you didn’t know how the bullseye artist did his work? It sure looks like a laser was employed to paint lines, then he merely applied actual paint IMHO. Next generation graffiti. I’m working through your casts right now, didn’t find you until episode 155.
Hey Lucian, I just recently found your site and I know you are wanting to know how and where. I stumbled upon it….stumbled sounds like I was not paying attention and it makes your podcast seem like a rock jutting from out the ground. Let’s say that I had been searching podcasts for daily videos when yours caught my eye. Geez, now it sounds like you are a fisher of eyes. To cut to the chase, I really like, and look forward to, your podcasts. I am very technically imature but I have a great thirst for this new medium of podcasting. I have recorded three but I have not published them as of yet. I am just a little scared to stick my words out there for all to hear, plus I am not exactly sure how to even put it on the web. I know I need hosting somehow and I have to have a URL to send somewhere. I will get it eventually. I am old enough to remember TV in the early 50s and how it changed the livingroom forever. Now nearly 60 years old, I feel like I am seeing a new media culture evolve with the same dreams AND fears I saw 54 years ago. You are part of the buzz and I sure do enjoy, and look forward to, your podcast.
PS My website should be working soon.
