A linux musician's podcast or video series to highlight community activity and support user issues

Post by Fmajor7add9 »

This is a fork of the social community project @briandc started.

I'm eager to try recording audio and/or video of Linux audio related talks and to learn more about editing and publishing in a user-friendly format.

I'm inspired by several other communities' and podcasters' effort and media releases and curious about who among you might be as well and would like to try it out.

Anything that highlights the activity and knowledge of the community and could inspire us further could be covered. I prefer to blend in screen shares and click-and-point style demos and presentations as a visual part alongside the topics being talked about. Jitsi can handle both and OBS can record the screen shares and videos.

Some content ideas for a start:
  • Listening party to tracks from Original Scores & Recordings. Q&A with the producer(s)
  • Listening party to talks from FOSDEM and other cons. We help each other understand and sum up the details
  • AMA (reddit style) with a dev
  • LAW lounge rig rundown, show us your tools and workflow, explain decisions behind choosing them
  • open help hour, flag your issue in advance and meet up for live troubleshooting with guided help and/or remote access tools
  • ninjam powered music collab with time to discuss and react inbetween takes
  • synth showcases from the synth guys and girls
  • producers corner with someone who's recording, mixing, mastering with FLOSS tools
  • writing and editing a shared Linux audio 'missing manual', help each other document our tools and setup better
So that's out there now for anyone who might have the same idea and is looking for a way to get started.

I'm not gonna brand it podcast.linuxmusicians.com or something like that anyway of course but will base it on the activity and people I see here.

Re. blend of talk (which could be strictly audio as in podcasts) and video show-and-tell like gamers using twitch and tutorials using screen shares and so on.

There are plenty of Linux-y podcasts already with geeks talking to geeks about geek stuff. I enjoy those. There are TONS of tutorials on any topic on youtube and other video sites. I enjoy most the Q&A formatted ones most where the presenter is interrupted by straight-forward clarifying questions that would come up in any classroom or presentation anyway.

LIVE: LUPLUG (Mumble)
4. apr. 2021 21:00 – 22:00 CEST
https://www.jupiterbroadcasting.com/release-calendar/
Join your virtual LINUX Unplugged Linux User Group for some relaxed conversation about Linux, open source, hardware, software, and projects via Mumble.
Haven't listened in there yet but sometimes during the regular podcast they invite someone in from the room to comment. So it seems to be technical savvy folks sharing dev or sys admin shop talk. I think there are regular presentations and screen shares during the virtual LUG meet but nothing recorded and published AFAIK.

Big Daddy Linux Live (BDLL) is the weekly live stream featuring BDL community members discussing Linux, Open Source, hardware and more including the weekly Distro Challenge.

BDLL is held each Saturday at 8PM Eastern US time with a special European edition held the second Saturday of each month at 3PM (followed by the 8PM edition later in the day).
This one seems to be on hiatus. I've seen some segments where 15+ attendees patiently listen to each other one at a time. Mostly trivial stuff re. distro hopping and I-like-gnome-more-now-ish topics.

I would be interested in participating in this, at least here and there. I've got too much on my plate to commit to being heavily involved, though. But I'm tempted.

@ssj71 I'm on my way through your OSMP back catalogue and enjoying it a lot so thank you very much for that vault. Would love to talk to you about the proposed pod/vid/tuts project above as well if you want.
