A word about the MUSIC

Why am I doing this?

This site started out as a response to what I saw as a reduction in the level of service by local media to the community. Television, Newspaper and Radio outlets are cutting staff and relying more and more on "prepackaged" news and information fronted by Corporate Public Relations and the Government.

TSP is an experiment in the "citizen media" of the future, combining global reach with local focus. Using my experience in both electronics and journalism, I have constructed my own audio/video/web production facility and can take the studio on the road to create content at a fraction of the cost of the old media.

But what is that content? I feel that my mission is to tell the stories that might otherwise go untold about the people, places and events that make Northern California a special place to live.

I may or may not agree with any views or opinions expressed in these articles and interviews, that's not the point. What's important is that this is a place where open and free discussion is welcome.

Notice!

Update: July 6, 2008

During the 2008 Fire Season, I am contracting to produce Podcasts, Public Service Announcements and Video for the U.S. Forest Service, Shasta-Trinity National Forest. This has left very little time to properly keep this page up to date or create new content.

I am not abandoning the Podcaster project, but it will have much less activity until I am able to adjust my schedule.

Making a living and paying the rent DOES come first, after all.

I will be posting links to the podcasts and other material I produce on this page when permitted to do so by my clients.

I appreciate your checking this page and thanks for your support.
