With little more than an idea, a microphone and a computer, your organisation can have its own radio station. Anyone with broadband can have their own radio channel and anyone online can hear your broadcast. In this seminar, creative content communications company Inner Ear's co-founding director Dougal Perman discusses the benefits and explains how to get started with live streaming, podcasting and distributing online content.
This presentation accompanies a seminar Dougal delivered at the Good, Better, Best event promoted by Third Sector Labs for charities.

This was the first-ever made presentation deck made for Ohdio back in late 2011. Note the name "Ohdioo" which was an early iteration. We finally built another deck that we presented to labels for the first licensing negotiation. Note that we didn't have any real market research on the target consumer, mainly assumptions.
GoMix (UK)
GoMix is an interactive music format that lets users create personalized remixes of major artist's songs. Distributed via Social Networks and digital album bundles, GoMix brings labels new revenue and promotional opportunities through advertising and digital retail products. In 2009 GoMix has been adopted by a succession of major artists and advertisers. 2010 will see very significant evolution, adding virtual goods, a mobile platform and a game changing User Generated Content approach.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.
The first audio transmission occurred on Xmas Eve in 1906 Guglielmo Marconi , who equipped ships with life-saving wireless communications, conducted a reported transatlantic radio communications experiments in 1901 and established the first commercial transatlantic radio service in 1907 Nikola Tesla , who developed means to reliably produce radio frequency currents, publicly demonstrated the principles of radio, and transmitted long distance signals. In 1943 the US Supreme Court upheld Tesla's patent number U.S. Patent 645,576 [2] . The reason it is not obvious who invented radio is that the technology is a product of many different discoveries and developments. Radio Caroline is an English radio station that originally commenced transmissions in 60s as an offshore radio station broadcasting from a ship anchored in international waters off the coast of South East England . Originally unlicensed by any government, for the majority of its early life, it was labelled as a pirate radio station. While Mexico issued radio station XERF with a license to broadcast, the power of its 250 kW transmitter was far greater than the maximum of 50 kW authorized for commercial use by the government of the United States of America. Consequently, XERF and many other radio stations in Mexico, which sold their broadcasting time to sponsors of English-language commercial and religious programs, were labelled as " border blasters ", but not "pirate radio stations", even though the content of many of their programs were in violation of US law. Predecessors to XERF, for instance, had originally broadcast in Kansas , advocating " goat-gland surgery " for improved masculinity, but moved to Mexico to evade US laws about advertising medical treatments, particularly unproven ones.
GROWTH - US Internet radio = 27% annual growth since 2000 - New platforms: 6m of Pandora’s 27m subscribers are on mobile, in the last 2 years only REVENUE - 1% of 2010 revenue = $35m from US only advertising - Pandora ad revenue up 80% from 2008, total revenue last year = $20m, predicting profitability this year ( 20% revenue already from iPhone )
Wired article: Domain registration: $129 -> $10 - Streaming video bandwidth costs (per GB) $193 --> 2.8 cents - Web storage (per GB) over $1000 --> 15 cents
What is Mixcloud? Mixcloud is a platform for on-demand radio shows, Podcasts and DJ mix sets – a “Youtube for radio”. The site provides hosting for all forms of content from talk shows through to music and comedy. The aim is to connect these “Cloudcasts” with listeners and make radio more social, democratic and personal. Why is Mixcloud? The was born based on the insight that radio content on the internet today is incredibly fragmented.
We were radio presenters at University of Cambridge (“The Get Down show”)
And 3 of the core team are breakdancers
Starting company about 14 months ago, funding from UK government (TSB) and working with Queen Mary university Launched 21 st September, just over 2 months ago, press in BBC, Guardian, Telegraph, etc Great feedback already, working with household names like BBC, Roundhouse, Judge Jules The first legal platform for independent radio shows containing music, although Streaming rate challenges for music content as the rates are still more than traditional radio Currently music oriented due to founders backgrounds, looking to expand breadth of content
Important trends happening elsewhere but not really at the intersection of music+radio+internet not necessarily ground breaking, but at heart of Mixcloud (and many other websites) and increasingly important
