And we’re back.

I know I haven’t updated in a while– I’ve been having some issues outside the Internet.

I’m currently hospitalized with few things other than my computer and wireless, so I am working on more transcriptions.

MP3s of MZD, a profile piece on Robin Young, and maybe some old footage of Bruce Campbell insulting New Jersey, if you’re lucky.

new mp3s tomorrow

I’ve been a bit busy the past two days travelling from Boston to New Jersey. Public transportation is not friendly to internet access. I managed to transcribe the last three worthwhile mp3s of Randall Munroe. They will be up tomorrow after I get out of work. I’ll upload the rest untranscribed as crowd noise. They’re not really worth going through to pull out single lines, but if you want to get an idea of the atmosphere, they’re pretty helpful.

 After I’m done with these, I plan on doing MZD, and then maybe some old footage of Bruce Campbell or Tori Amos.

Thanks for reading!

quick note–

If you haven’t already read it, my article about the meetup can be found here on the website for Journalism Students’ Online News Service (JSONS).

 It’s nearly broken 500 page views, while every other article is hovering around 50. This makes me really excited, and my editor somewhat confused.

Also, I know it gives me a different last name. Name changes are terrible and time-consuming, but rest assured, I did in fact write that article, and transcribe these mp3s.

 Thanks for reading.

hiya everybody!

Hi! So this is my new blog. It’s very pretty- it’s got bananas! I love bananas! [edit: Okay, I love bananas, but unfortunately the text was a bit hard to read. So now I have trees.] I’m Lily, and a future journalist living in Boston. This blog will be full transcriptions of various speakers I attend and interviews I conduct, as well as the mp3s. Right now on my computer, I have partial transcriptions and mp3s of Randall Munroe, xkcd creator, speaking at the xkcd meetup in Cambridge. I also have mp3s of Mark Z Danielewski, author of House of Leaves and Only Revolutions, answering questions at a book signing in Cambridge.

 In the future, I will definitely have at least a few minutes of talking with Tori Amos, as well as anyone else I manage to track down in the Boston area.

 It’s getting a bit late now, but I will start with the Munroe transcriptions in the morning.

Thank you for reading!
