Podcasting.

June 7, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I used to be BIG on podcasting. I listened to podcasts everyday, I made my own podcast, it was some good times. However, my time ran out and eventually I was forced to stop making my show, A. because I was busy doing school work and B. I was busy working on my acting and singing. 

Bit by bit, my interest in podcasting dwindled, but there were/ are a few shows/podiobooks (podcasted audio fiction) that I still listen to: 

Daily Source Code by Adam Curry (www.dailysourcecode.com)

Scott Sigler (www.scottsigler.net , and buy his book Infected from Amazon.com!)

7th Son by J.C. Hutchins (www.jchutchins.net)

Today I want to focus on the latter of these three audio productions: 7th Son is a trilogy of sci-fi novels that are unbelievable. And this is from the guy that really doesn’t like most sci-fi. The novels were released a few chapters a week, and they were the best. Recently, the books came to a conclusion…but then, a new project was begun: 7th Son Obsidion is an anthology of short stories written in the world of the 7th Son books, and so far, its been an amazing collaboration.

Part of the project involved “Voices from the Darkness”, a Cloverfield style audio work where listeners would call in and leave a voicemail as if they were trapped in a disastrous blackout that devastated the U.S. J.C. Hutchins kindly used my call as one of the first pieces for the anthology, and it was a really cool thing: it brought me back to the world of online audio.

Anyways, please check out his site, subscribe, and enjoy it. Let me know what you all think!

“Unshuffling”: A J.Rice Session

December 24, 2006 · Leave a Comment

This is a little bit impromptu, with a bit of a discrepency at the end, but its fun anyways. Just playing around, believe it or not, this can be presented quite magicially.

P.S. For some reason, all of my youtube vids have that weird grey blur at the beginning…hmmm.
