As you can tell I have been messing about with the various websites of late and stuff is getting moved around and may be MIA for the time being. My apologies on that. I did just (re)post my interview with Suzanne Leonard on “Celebrity Culture” on my new website here as well as started a Vimeo channel and you can check out here. I have also reposted Joan Myers’s discussion on Virginia Rappe on my website as well as Vimeo. Originally in Garageband, these are looking a bit “old school” but hoping to upgrade the quality now that I am moving from more audio file focus to video. I am also going to rework my own website as it looks rather spare at present, but since these interviews are very popular I just wanted to get them back out in circulation. Hope you enjoy!

Melissa Silverstein and Elisa Kreisinger’s remix for the Oscar season. I guess the more things change…..
