nab show 2012 - the great content shift Keram and co-host Aimee Lynn Chadwick return from the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB show) conference in Las Vegas, attended by 91,000 members of the entertainment and tech industries, to report on the state of tech, media distribution, social media marketing, transmedia, the Cloud, and Big Data (mining).

Keram also goes into depth about why you should consider resurrecting the carrier pigeon and investing in a typewriter from the gold ducats you have stashed underground in an unmarked metal safe.

The crew also gets into how to think about survival in the modern age and should (and when) the “lights go out”, the broken promise of Facebook’s IPO, the philosophy behind Amazon’s Kindle Fire vs. Apple’s iPad, Microsoft vs. Apple’s smart TV strategies, Hulu, Redbox and much more.

Don’t miss this fascinating romp through one of the strangest, most challenging and transitional years in recent history.

Strange to think that in the last episode of the Keramcast, we were talking about the revolution in Egypt. Since then we have seen tsunamis, earthquakes, nuclear meltdowns, Libyan and Syrian civil war, the death of Bin Laden, the Royal wedding, the Canadian election, tornadoes in the Southern states, 3 movie premieres and NAB 2011. The new Keramcast episode 21 will cover it all. Post your questions now. We will answer.

An hour+ of madness ensues as the six podcast veterans share devilish tales about funky Ecuadorian mountain cuisine, making out with Winona Ryder and double rainbows. Listen now to this very special episode of The Second Column and see what happens when the Keramcast is not playing on its home field.

Independent video games are going through something of an Enlightenment period with the propagation of free development platforms, starter kits and online marketplace happily stocking up on the latest titles assembled in basements, garages and coffee shops. The time is right for this emerging medium that brings together graphic design, music, storytelling and interactivity in a world hungry for new content, interaction and storytelling forms.

In this very special edition of the KeramCast, host Keram Malicki-Sanchez interviews Psychic Bunny founder Jesse Vigil and Indiecade director Sam Roberts about the history, present, and future of indie games, their new video game label The Singularity (also working with Indiecade festival chair Celia Pearce) and what amazing things lay ahead.
