Quick update on the podcast availability...

My apologies for the delays with series 2.... Itunes is being a complete pain right now and won't update the feed. So, I'm removing the itunes links for a couple of days while I try to sort it out, and linking everything from here instead. That means listening to and downloading from here! Apologies.

Just as I'd started to like Itunes too... (although I can't scrobble any of my itunes tracks to LastFm at the moment either... conspiracy???)

We've got two episodes this week so enjoy.... One' s going up tonight, the other sometimes tomorrow (Friday).

UPDATE 29.05.09: Itunes problems sorted out, but I've moved everything to a new feed and new itunes listing. So please resubscribe here: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=318133310

New series....

A quick apology, and then some good news.

Firstly, apologies that the third Box has taken so damn long to put together. The first couple were invaluable experiences, and work is ongoing on a longer run.

The podcast on British sex-comedies will happen, but I've put it on temporary hold.

This week I should be bringing out the first in a new series of Box of Obfuscation, the first series proper. Expect more interviews, a more diverse group of voices, and a healthy mixture of film, television and music (taking a lead from comments about my written blog... Avalard's Cultural Crisis).

Your comments, feedback and requests are more than welcome and should be sent to podcast@avalard.com

We'll probably loose the 'Avalard' prefix too... as it will be more than my voice you hear from now on, and its far too narcissistic to claim it all for myself.

So please, bear with us and add this blog to your blog readers and rss feeds, for news on the first of the new Boxes....

Coming up...

Episode 2 of the podcast is nearly in the can, with episode 3 in preparation.

For the second Box of Obfuscation we talk to British filmmaker Robert Pratten about his independently produced features London Voodoo and Mind Flesh and the problems with traditional modes of film distribution. An interesting conversation which looks at Robert's break from the usual marketing methods with the release of Mind Flesh....

All being well, the new podcast should be released some time this coming weekend...
