The latest edition of RU Sirius’s Radio Show is online — and the guest this week is me!
The folks at the Beam Me Up radio show in Rockland Maine (who also do a podcast of the same name) have done their own audio adaptation of my story Printcrime, as featured in my new collection Overclocked — this joins the Escape Pod adaptation, the remix, and the origami mini-comic of the story.
(Thanks, Paul!)

Here’s part 3 — chapters 9-10 — of the reading of my novel Eastern Standard Tribe.
Wow, this is odd — Forbes has named me one of the top 25 “Web Celebrities” for 2007. Between this, my bad-ass review in this week’s Entertainment Weekly (“Doctorow is rapidly emerging as the William Gibson of his generation”) (!), and the whole Davos Young Global Leader thing, I am getting a swollen head. Lots of people I like and respect made the list, like my friend and co-editor Xeni Jardin.
I’m speaking on Friday at UCLA’s OPEN conference — free with registration. My talk’s first thing in the morning, at 10:35. Also on the bill is Nicholas Negroponte, who’ll give the opening keynote.
The UC Digital Arts Research Network (UC DARnet) is a transdisciplinary Multicampus Research Group of University of California faculty who utilize digital media for cultural and theoretical research and in their creative production. UC faculty established DARnet in 1997 to lay the foundation for a UC-wide program to facilitate collaborative research and teaching within a distributed digital arts and humanities community.
Culture is in the midst of an increasingly rapid shift to computer-mediated forms of creative production, distribution and communication. The role of digital media is fundamental to this shift.
Media Artists create a natural bridge across the traditional disciplinary divide between the humanities and the sciences. UC DARnet, provides an opportunity for critical engagement and conceptual dialogue between humanists, scientists, and those in the media arts.
Minifig sez, “It’s been a while, but Xeni very kindly linked to me making Dick Cheney in Lego. In return, it would have been nice to make her out of Lego, but however hard I try, I can’t get it right. Instead, I’ve made Cory, with a heap of his CC books next to him. Enjoy. There are a few other famous people recreated in Lego in my flickr photostream if you take a look around.”
(Thanks, Minifig!)
