Codex » Info

by sbrothier
Codex is a weekly music podcast hosted by Jean Snow, recorded in Tokyo, Japan. A long, long time ago in a country far, far away (that would be Canada) he used to have a college radio show. He had two of them, actually, first when he was truly a university student — believe it or not, it was called The Jean Snow Show — and then 10 years ago when he was back in Canada for a year, he did another show on the same station (CKUM) which he decided to call Codex (for reasons that have long been forgotten). He’s long missed those days of hosting a weekly music show — in a proper studio — and although he can’t replicate that same environment, he’s recently started doing similar but on the net, in podcast form.

by karlcow

Because it was very difficult to get the big picture on the phone's small screen, I thought to pick up a paper map at a gas station. To my dismay, the spinner racks were empty, with only a few maps of other parts of the state available.

Review: Google Translate for iPhone -- you speak one language, the app speaks it back in another language - iPhone J.D.

by night.kame

For example, make sure your the app is in English to French mode, press one button in the app, say to your iPhone "where is the train station," and then a second later your iPhone displays "où est la gare" and you can tap one button to have that spoken in French so that the person in Paris can hear and understand you and point in a direction.

Si à Paris on me demande "où est la gare", je réponds "quelle gare ?" !

Dandelion Radio | Internet Radio Station (inspired by John Peel)

by garret
"named after Dandelion Records, the label Peel ran from 1969-1973...we want to serve the needs of the people who create and distribute new and interesting music and provide a unique listening experience, with the spirit of Peel running through all we do. We could also tell you about all the strange, challenging, new, old and different music we play. And the exclusive live recordings and sessions we regularly feature. Or about how we are the official new home of John Peel's legendary Festive Fifty - a broadcasting institution since 1976." We broadcast our monthly shows consecutively, in a schedule that loops 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The new schedule begins at midnight on the 1st of every month.

“Pointless, action-free and totally mesmerising” « Straylight

by karlcow

Both glides were filmed by sticking a – relatively cheap – digital camera out of the window of a train as it arrived at a station. The ‘trick’ is the camera collects images at a rate of 210 per second – but the film is played back at 30 frames per second. So, every seven seconds of footage that you watch corresponds to 1 real second.

Shimokitazawa, Japan Photo-Post

by karlcow

Shimokitazawa is a popular area on the Odakyu and Inokashira Lines. On the weekend, the narrow streets around the station are full of people checking out the many stores and restaurants. The area has a relaxed feel about it. Next time I need a guide to show me some of the better places to eat.

Lighthouse Traveling Library

by karlcow

As light keeping was a lonely profession in most cases supplies were

brought to them by lighthouse tender ships. One of the items the tender supplied was

a library box on each visit as pictured to the left. Library boxes were

filled with books and switched from station to station to supply different

reading materials to the families.

Site-specific map plotting the location of FM commercial and pirate radio stations within

London. Power lines are drawn in pencil on the back of the map which conduct the electricity

us to listen to the sound broadcast live from that location.
