Senses Special: The Art of Seeing Without Sight. Fascinating article about a blind man who has learned to paint realistic scenes.

Sound Recording Tips and Techniques. Some rounding up to do in the world of podcasting. In this item Doug Kaye links to some sites offering tips and advice on sound recording (the whole Blogarithms site is well worth the time - and I really like the site design). Matt Pasiewicz also offers some links to Audacity tutorials (Audacity is free sound recording software). You'll also find on the EDUCAUSE blogs site various links to numerous links to talks and interviews recorded at the recent NLII meeting and posted for all to hear - here, for example, and here and here and here (and more - explore the site). I think they've done a really nice job with this - I've been sort of sitting on these links because I wanted to listen to everything - but there's no way.
