An anthropological introduction to YouTube
presented at the Library of Congress, June 23rd 2008. This was tons of fun to present. I decided to forgo the PowerPoint and instead worked with students to prepare over 40 minutes of video for the 55 minute presentation. This is the result.

Nine Inch Nails' Ghosts Film Festival - Introduction
To expand the idea of the "Ghosts" project, we're inviting anyone and everyone to create visuals to accompany the album's music. In a few months, we'll be gathering the entries we feel are particularly exceptional and highlighting them. There are no rules to this - be as creative as you like. Create a music video, or a short film, or something completely abstract. Use only one track from the album, or use multiple tracks. Only one caveat: Incorporating copyrighted materials (clips from movies, music by other artists, etc) into your video might limit our ability to feature it in the future.
To submit your video, join the Ghosts group at http://www.youtube.com/group/ninghosts and add your video to the group. Good luck, and enjoy.

Speed Kills - Guitar Lesson Introduction
This is the introduction to Michael Angelo Batio's Speed Kills, the original speed picking technique video guitar lesson. This includes Michael's performance of No Boundaries. For more information: http://www.metalmethod.com/lead-guitar-lesson-speed-kills.htm
A quick note from MAB: The ambient, reverbed, delayed sound that you hear on my lead guitar is not part of my sound, nor in the original version. When the original video was converted to DVD a different audio track was used and somehow this was the result. The original lead guitar sound had none of this reverbed, delayed ambience. Thanks.
