Thanks, Steve, for the best laugh I've had all day! ;-)

What a great example of the limitation of bench testing with 
mentation and the inestimable value of sharing our experiences with

OK, I see what you're talking about.  The
web page pulls up, but when you click on
the RealSlideShow file called "It's a Beautiful
Day", there is a RealPlayer error message.

When I logged on to a friend's computer it didn't
work; it seems the RSS program has an embedded
link pointing to a file on my C:/drive.

Will try some FTP and HTML techniques and
figure out the correct way to load the RSS files
onto a remote web page.

Will post the link again when it works OK from
several different computers.

Fyi,
Steve Diver

Subject:beautiful day

Today was the ultimate beautiful day.   A blue sky,
a calm breeze, warm sunshine on your skin, walking
through the woods and quiet pastures, your lover by your
side, your dog trotting along keeping you both company,
observing the first signs of Spring, buds breaking on
a wild rose, un-named green leaves pushing through the
damp earth, a single sycamore shining and waving its
white arms around against the blue sky.  stopping to
observe, silent, transfixed  breathing deep, soaking
in the experience, the calm, peaceful presence of
a beautiful day.

Steve

I can completely relate to this for the whole last week, except that here
it is autumn, like nature recovering from the hot dry summer after the
little bit of rain recently and I have no lover but three loving young dogs
running and chasing each other and kangaroos (for about 100 m and then give
up) full of life's exuberance and excitement.  It is still dry, but on the
floodplain along the Murray it is not so obvious.  Lots of birds seem to
enjoy the day just as much.  The different colour and quality of the autumn
sunlight is beautiful, expecially in the morning - a very light translucent
yellow that brings out every little detail so crystal clearly. When
swimmming in the river the splashing water drops are like brilliant little
diamionds against the sunlight and the water flows smooth and cool along
the skin.  After the swim some qi-gong to capture the natural calm and
happy energy.

Here is the RealSlideShow sampler I put together.

It's a Beautiful Day
http://www.ipa.net/~steved/audio/

The music goes for 2.4 minutes, then the
images continue to 3.3 minutes or thereabouts.

RealSlideShow offers this ability to weave
sound and images together.

Well, sometimes life really is a beautiful day.

Bob Cannard & Wes Jackson Audio + RealSlideShow

2003-03-07 Thread Steve Diver
Recall that online audio for Bob Cannard is located here:

Voice of the Farm:   A visit with Bob Cannard at his
Sobre Vista Farm in Sonoma, California
May 11, 2000
http://www.lifesignsphoto.com/Earth/Farms/Cannard.html

Part 1  An Introduction to Farming
Part 2  Biology Lessons
Part 3  The Social Context
Part 4  It's a wrap

Each audio clip is about 11-12 minutes.

Also there at Lifesignsphoto:

Wes Jackson Speaks at Asilomar
The 20th Annual Ecological Farming Conference
January 19 through 22, 2000
http://www.lifesignsphoto.com/SShow/EFarm2000/Wes/wesa.htm

Fascinatingly.  the Wes Jackson download is a
RealSlideShow clip.  It combines the Wes Jackson
audio lecture at about 11-12 minutes, integrated with
slide photo images that "transition" from one image
to the next image while the audio lecture plays.  Though,
there aren't enough images and they change too slowly,
so this is just a sample of RealSlideShow, not an excellent
example of RealSlideShow.

Curiosity finally got to me so I stayed up late this week
investigating RealSlideShow and found out that it is still
available in the dark dungeons of Real Network, with a
free download version.

OK, friends, here it is it is a life transforming experience
to have this tool... if you have music clips or audio clips
and slide images... you can weave it all together and have
a new form of educational delivery.

As I say, it is an older release and *all* of the old press
release sites that talk about RealSlideShow "jump" to this
Real Networks page featuring the most recent "for-purchase"
programs.
http://www.realnetworks.com/products/media_creation.html

But no, you have to dig deeper.   Deeper.  You have to
search and you have to dig.

Instead, go to Tools and Plug-ins
http://www.realnetworks.com/resources/toolsplugins/index.html

Now you can get to RealSlideShow Basic
http://forms.real.com/rnforms/products/tools/slideshowbasic/index.html?key=75VG61047058248

As a test run, I put put together my first RealSlideShow with
beautiful music and beautiful images flow forms, BD barrel
stirring, chromatagram, flower beds, water crystallization... with
a title of "It's a Beautiful Day."

My work home page, Rhizosphere II, is no longer available
as a public site web page (new organizational policy), so I
will move this over to my "farm home" web page later and let
you know how to access it.

In the meantime, here is a nice sampler of RealSlideShow
in action.  As you can see, it is pretty cool.  A nice example
of slide transitions and phase changes between images set
to music from a band that knows how to use technology to
get their music and vision "out there."

Baby, I Just Got the Blues
an online video*
by one blue nine
*actually a glorified multimedia slide show..
