Low Tech Radio Gazette

LTRG Placeholder

Here at the Lowtech Radio Gazette we delight in providing the most infrequent, least organized, and scatter brained stream of conscious podcasts around. What we lack utterly in quality and production planning, we make up for in stride with truly quirky technicals, interesting behind the scenes Lambdacreate content, and easy to digest mini episodes! The next time you think "Gee I don't know what to listen to" tune into LTRG and come be confused with us too!

So what is the Lowtech Radio Gazette?

LTRG is a mini podcast that I'm recording, producing, and publishing directly on my Motorola Droid4. In my mind it's another technical demonstration of what you can do with old hardware and a little bit of creativity. I don't expect it to be a great audio quality in any sense, but I'll strive to refine the quality of the production as the podcast unfolds. This will be pure learning on the fly!

In exchange for quality I get a podcasting platform that fits in my pocket, and ergo can travel with me anywhere. And to succeed I need to be truly creative and evocative with my content.

I started a podcast, and after re-recording this episode at least a dozen times I've finally got something I can put out into the world! There's very little focus this episode, in fact I'd go so far as to say I spent 20 minutes rambling about how excited I am to actually be going forward with this crazy idea. But this is definitely the hardest part.

I've rebuilt my website just to accommodate this new type of media, written helper tools and scripts to produce the audio, rss feeds, and recording. Everything from the first second to the "go live" publishing has been hand curated on my handy dandy droid4. And it's with all of these simple hacky glue bits that I've hacked together this episode for you. So sit back, and hopefully enjoy the first of many episodes of the Low Tech Radio Gazette!
