Running an errand for a friend, I brought the minidisc with me while buying gourmet cupcakes for Laura’s mom’s birthday. Cupcakes on Denman St. is a pretty neat place, and I recommend getting some goodies from there if you have some cash to spare. From there, I hop a bus to give you a sample what that type of experience is like. We’ll do a little walking around downtown before I head back up to Robson Street to finish this recording. Forgive my addictions, but I had to duck into Blenz for a chai latte as well.

The experiments continue as I take a short journey into Stanley Park for some soundseeing. We start out in the west end of Vancouver, down to English Bay Beach, head over to Second Beach, take some trails into the park, and end at Lost Lagoon. I have included the pictures you can hear me taking through out the episode here in the show notes.

Post Canadian Election Day episode! This episode boasts more than just some info about the election and my thoughts about it. I took the MiniDisc around and captured something of the sounds of the city on election day as well as sounds at one of the polling stations. I also take a moment to highlight some thoughts about podcasting supporting music artists.

Another podcast, another experiment in being mobile. This time I take you with me as I do some Christmas shopping in downtown Vancouver. I’m getting better at being a soundseeing tour guiding, but not much. I’m just trying to do something new, different, and creative with my podcasts.

As a side note, I must apologize for this coming out later than it should. The holidays were a set back, but now I’m just getting over a flu bug that has pass through Rebecca’s family. I was bound to get it, and it has not been fun. I edited this all together today just to do something creative and feel normal.

All music in this episode come from mexican electronic music artist, Vate. Please click on the link and visit the website for more information.

This was my first experience ever doing anything mobile. I have a not so great lapel mic and a portable minidisc recorder. I was on the way to meet Rebecca and some friends for a movie, so I recorded the sounds of walking from the apartment to the movie theatre. I do some talking a long the way but have lots to learn about being a good tour guide. I hope you enjoy the sounds of Robson Street in downtown Vancouver. Oh yeah, and I know I called it “The Secrets of Narnia”, so please forgive my error. It’s the “Chronicles of Narnia.”
