Podcast - Technology in the Arts #22

As Jason Hansen is still on vacation... we're beginning to think he might never return... Brad offers up a quick tip for adding free and legal audio to your podcasts. Brad also presents an encore release of his interview with Felix Barrett from episode #14 for those recent subscribers who have yet to hear it. Barrett is incredibly engaging, and it's definitely worth a repeat.

And our ongoing - possibly never ending - challenge still stands: We're still waiting on someone to send Brad a MySpace page that looks good. The first person to achieve this seemingly impossible task will win a free lunch.
