Today I interviewed CHUO and Michael Geist. Both interviews went great.
I’d especially like to thank Erin Flynn, the CHUO station manager, for taking extra time to give me an impromptu tour of the studio. It’s more footage for the film, and very much appreciated.
As I do these interviews, I’ve come to notice how working spaces are defined by their inhabitants. In the office of the CRIA president, he had all these serious posters and whatnot, but hidden among them was that one picture of Buffy. Michael Geist’s office had more texts crammed in it than most libraries… all manner of interesting books on copyright reforms, the DMCA, posters about. It’s a sharp contrast from the slick office of the CRIA, but not necessarily better or worse. Simply different. That variety, and the fact that people differ so, is quite a wonderful thing.
Tomorrow I’ll be in Montreal, filming the CMPDA.
In other news, I’ve lost about 80% of my hearing. Got it checked out, and I’m now on meds for the next 10 days.
