Vlogs

Everyone who makes beautiful vlogs, has a link to Adrian's blog at the first place in their link list.

From his vlogging manifesto (2000):
A vlog is not streaming video (this is not the reinvention of television). A vlog uses performative video and/or audio. A vlog is personal. A vlog uses available technology. A vlog experiments with writerly video and audio. A vlog lies between writing and the televisual.

Adrian's own blog about vlogs is right here

After the lecture everyone could have dinner in the Micro Green Restaurant, which was a concept by Culiblogger Debra Solomon.

Adrian Miles teaches the theory and practice of hypermedia and interactive video at RMIT University, Australia. He has also been a senior new media researcher in the InterMedia Lab at the University of Bergen, Norway.
