Podcast: Lost Vignettes with Tim and Vanessa
Having just returned from a trip to Melbourne, I’m catching up on my recordings. The latest development (which emerged from reading aloud together with Lizzie during the trip) is that the recordings are a bit more interesting when they have a live audience. Lizzie was a good audience because she had never read the original stories before.
Today, sitting with Vanessa and Tim in my loungeroom, I recorded “The Lost Vignettes” which was posted last year on the 19th of April. Both V and T are familiar with the stories, so there is some reflection and chatting about the events and places depicted. We share the reading of comments contributed by blog readers - Vanessa does the female voices, and Tim does Alex Bruen, which is kind of fun.
In “The Lost Vignettes” we hear about Marie and Chris, punks, “tag” graffiti, the Palace Pantry, and we sit in the sun with Bruce watching the dogs in Petersham Park.

Hey Lucas, nice to see that the the ’sham rides again, this time in podcast form … technology, all the cool kids are doing it. :) Strangely enough, I was talking to someone in our contemporary artspace the other day about PhDs and postgrad study (since I manage admin for the Arts bunch at UOW), and was talking about the ’sham and you confining yourself to Petersham for two months. I really enjoyed reading it back then, coming out of finishing up the film festival down here in Wollongong, will have to listen in to some of your podcasts.
Cheers,
David

Thanks David!
look forward to hearing what you think - and your suggestions - about the podcast versions. Still early days for me as to whether it’s a good idea in the way I’m doing it…
