Drawing on examples from Adam Curry, David Allen and Adam Weiss, I arrive at five rules for good podcast interviews. Tim Donovan of Mowhawk Shade & Blind Co. in Cambridge was here at the house while I worked on the podcast, and he agreed to an interview. This gave me a chance to practice my new rules!

Yesterday I attended the first meeting of a Project Evaluation Panel at Denver International Airport, convened to guide the process of choosing three new, temporary artworks from emerging Colorado artists. Two will be on a median strip of Pena Boulevard leading to and from the airport. The other will be on a new Regional Jet Facility nearing completion on Concourse B. This podcast contains interviews with panel members after our meeting, as we took a hardhat tour of the Concourse B area.

This book review of The Laws of Simplicity by MIT professor John Maeda follows David Tames's compelling recommendation of the book at last week's Boston Media Makers meeting. I loved this book and plan to read it again and maybe again. The writing is playful and clear. The concepts are subtle and powerful. Highly recommeded.
