The Real Life Keyboard Cat


by Atris, posted 04/15/10 17:01:18

 

Recently I blogged about the iPad's release and a notation application that looks pretty slick. Apparently humans aren't the only mammals who are being attracted to Apple's new pretty shiny thing. As Tamar Weinberg from my favorite Mac/tech blog, Macgasm [see my guest post there about e-mail signatures], points out, cats seem to be drawn towards its mysterious glow as well.

 

 

Was that great or what? By the way, did anyone else notice the cat's name is Iggy? ^_^

 

Hope this finds you feeling healthy!

Bigger Than Beyonce


by Atris, posted 04/09/10 22:03:46

Caitlin Hoffman wrote a fantastic post about us on Bigger Than Beyonce today and I'd highly recommend you check it out. I'm not just writing that because her review of our album, Lensing, is stellar (although, admittedly, that doesn't hurt). Honestly I'm encouraging you to read it because of what a remarkable job she does of articulating everything that we aspire to achieve with our records. Here's a gem of an example:

What are your thoughts on closed captioning?


by Atris, posted 04/08/10 17:42:57

 

I just finished reading a post that Ari Herzog wrote on AriWriter.com about a reality TV show that Marlee Martin is producing called "My Deaf Family" about a deaf family living in California.

While you may not know Marlee by name, if you IMDB her, I'm pretty sure you'll recognize her face. Marlee has an incredibly impressive filmography. She's been in everything from "The L Word" to "The West Wing". She even sang the National Anthem at Super Bowl XLI in 2007. However, as Ari writes,

Despite her credentials and expertise on deaf issues, an internalization she can relate, Marlee’s reality show was rejected by television broadcasters because of an assumption that primetime audiences wouldn’t appreciate watching closed captioning. That’s you. Would you appreciate it? Keep reading…

To read the rest of Ari's article (and to see the pilot for Marlee's show) please click here to visit AriWriter.com.

Would you choose not to watch a program because it had subtitles? What are your thoughts on the decision to reject Marlee's show?

I believe in always trying something different and I'm dismayed that a show like this didn't get the green light. I don't own a TV, and I've never watched more than a few minutes of a reality television program, but I'd tune in to catch this one.

Hope this finds you feeling healthy!
