Alpha Waves Radio Podcast – Bob Gebert and Tracy Evans discuss all things Theatrics

aplha-waves-radio

Bob Gebert and I are interviewed on this episode of Alpha Waves Radio, the popular Science Fiction podcast hosted by Michael Hinman. The show is a companion to the Airlock Alpha web site. Click on the player below to listen to the show.


You can also listen to the podcast in iTunes.

In the interview we discuss all things Theatrics, Beckinfield and Mass Participation TV and touch on a variety of subjects: the origins of the project and company, our business partner Biff Van Cleve, the amazing staff behind the project, our upcoming presentation at Macworld, Scott David, Jonathan Frakes, and the never-ending Mac/PC debate.

The whole podcast is jam packed with interesting Sci Fi discussion; a George Takei viral video, Chase Masterson, Wil Wheaton’s opinions on William Shatner  and much more. If you’re in a hurry however you can find Bob and I around the 29 minute mark.

Theatrics at Macworld 2012 – The Booth

In addition to our main stage presentation, Theatrics.com will have a presence on the Macworld|iWorld show floor. Drop by for a visit in the OS X Zone, booth 228-33. Our mini-booth will look something like the photo on the left.

Our amazing video editor Jesse Garson is working on a customized video loop for the display screen, while I work on the graphics for a flyer. The photo above is a glimpse at my messy desk with some flyer work in progress.

Planning on attending? Be sure to let me know. Send me a tweet at @tracyevans.

AlphaAirlock.com and the Alpha Waves Radio podcast

I had a great time today recording with Michael Hinman on the Alpha Waves Radio podcast. He invited Bob Gebert and myself on to talk about Theatrics.com and Mass Participation TV. The show should hit his podcast feed sometime next week. Check back here then for a direct link. (Here is the link to the show.)

Until then, give a listen to some of his archived shows featuring such SciFi fav as George Takei and Eddie McClintock of Warehouse 13.

Planning the Macworld | iWorld Presentation

Bob Gebert and I have been working dilligently on our Macworld presentation. For me, it starts with pencil on paper. I like a messy erasable medium at this stage.

The presentation will include background on Beckinfield, the Theatrics production process, what it’s like to start a startup, and a few other behind-the-sceens items. Our special guest will announce the winner of the Theatrics Ultimate Online Audition Contest, then participate is a special surprise. More on this tomorrow.

I’m speaking at Macworld/iWorld.

I am very excited to report that Bob Gebert and I have been invited to speak at Macworld/iWorld. We will be discussing MPTV,  Theatrics.com and Beckinfield, the worlds first Mass Participation TV web series. We will have a special guest and will also be shooting a live segment of Beckinfield during the presentation, with the audience playing a part. It will be quite the unique event. More details to come. Stay tuned.
