While this first message is primarily a test to see if the aggregated feeds connected to this Livejournal community and the Google Group Supplemental are working correctly, I might as well take this opportunity to give an explanation and introduction to the radio show Supplemental.Supplemental is an experiment in self produced radio and an avenue for applied practice for future projects which explores the emerging technologies present in grassroots media via the internet.Featuring a by-the-seat-of-the-pants style of live production by small groups of people telling autobiographical recollections from their past interspersed between music. This show is aired via the University of Cincinnati's internet radio station Bearcast (http:/bearcast.uc.edu), and podcasted / aggregated via feed sites using RSS/Atom syndication technology.Supplemental is basically taking the best selected tellings of the all those funny stories and commentary we hear from our friends and publish them online as a streaming/on demand radio show. This project was inspired by the self publishing movement in the form of web comics like HomestarRunner (www.homestarrunner.com), Penny Arcade (www.penny-arcade.com), Something Positive (www.somethingpositive.net), Sluggy Freelance (www.sluggy.com), Megatokyo (www.megatokyo.com), and Red vs. Blue (www.redvsblue.com).Content created for Supplemental partakes in movements in the area of intellectual property.
