It’s hard to believe I started doing this over six years ago, and I wasn’t sure I’d come back. I was inspired to fire up the podcast recording software, play some music from Kutiman, and say a few words. read more »

Over seven months ago, at the end of 2009, I recorded what was probably one of the saddest episodes in this series. I put the show on hiatus to concentrate on other things that needed attention. Producing this podcast had become more of a chore and not as much fun.

Seven months later, I’m coming up on the fifth anniversary read more »

As we make the journey of our lives, it is not uncommon to find ourselves needing to put aside certain things in order to make other things better. In situations like these, it is okay to give up doing that one thing.

I started the Journey Inside My Mind blog in January 2002. I started the podcast in August 2005. This project, like so many others, has been highly experimental and without much more of a purpose except to provide a vehicle for me to be introspective and explore things creatively. I always wanted to be a DJ ever since my Dad showed me how to splice tape together and make mixtapes myself.

When I started the podcast in August 2005, I did it to get some things out as well as to promote some independent music I found myself enjoying. For awhile the show came out weekly. After some time the show came out less frequently as other things began. In 2009 only 9 official episodes – including this one – have come out. I expect the same to be the case in the future. While I have posted several “Another Rest Stop in the Journey” audio posts – which has made it easy to keep in touch, I find myself at a crossroads.

In the past year, you have shared with me as I’ve mentioned New Media Cincinnati and How I Got My Job.  Both of these projects, as well as my ongoing search for employment, are making it difficult to make this show the best it can be. I think it’s time for me to focus my energy and efforts where I think I can make it count.

Through this blog and podcast, I’ve been able to make some great connections with others, and these have carried over into other areas, both online and offline. I’d like to say thanks to the Association of Music Podcasting (AMP) for their support and encouragement. I’d also like to say thanks to the 5 of you who have remained subscribed to the feed, either by email or podcast subscription (*wink, wink*). I’m not going to start naming off names, because I know I will undoubtedly forget someone.

So, let’s consider episode 122 (mp3, 29:43, 27.3 MB) the last official podcast episode over here until further notice. And remember, we’re not saying goodbye here. The journey itself will continue; just not so much on this blog and podcast. So let’s just say, “Good journey.”

Mood: ecstatic
Listening to: my first official podcast

4/14/2006 Update: My voice in this episode sounds “chipmunk’d” because I recorded it in 16,000 Hz whereas the recent shows are recorded at 44,100 Hz. I think all the streaming players assume the latter speed, and maybe that’s why my voice sounds so sped up. Unfortunately, the mp3 exists in the Internet Archive like this.

I’m able to hear the episode at the recorded speed by importing it into Audacity. Maybe I’ll re-do this in 44,100 Hz and post it here.

first “official” podcast of Journey Inside My Mind

Folks, this must be what it feels like – on a much smaller level – to give birth. This is the first “official” podcast of Journey Inside My Mind – 10 minutes long! Sure, I’ve done audio posts here and there, but this one at least sounds more professional:

I’ve even got a theme! In this podcast

  • I share a little bit about my blogging history, including other blogs I’ve spun off of this one
  • We listen to a wonderful song by Jennifer Helane entitled “Nice”
  • I describe some of the more unique aspects of Journey Inside My Mind; namely Guideposts, the Mooch List, and what it means to be an Official of this blog.

Now, for some props to those who helped make this episode possible:

Please leave me a comment (guidepost) or send me an e-mail to let me know what you think!
