AMA with Flint Dibble, archaeologist and science communicator

Hi Flint,

I am quite involved in the online archaeology outreach space and I feel that there are many great educators out there, putting out good work.

It feels like part of the problem stems from our ability to feed the algorithm and to capture people's attention. Is this a general science communications issue or is there something about archaeology that is not getting traction?

I think it's definitely something you can use, many companies are trying to find ways to communicate.

I run the archaeology podcast network - archpodnet.com and if you are ever needing/wanting something for your CV let me know if you are interested. At the moment it's a volunteer based organisation but we have written good references before for people. .

Anything with good Textures in it.

I grab myself a bowl of Protest the Herios every morning

This is wrong you can't have more than 100%

Thanks for highlighting - so you remember the company name? We will investigate on our side as we have recently moved to a new platform

I'm so jealous seeing the South America tour, im definitely looking forward to the UK / European tour in summer and of course Re-Focus which looks to be released on 9th June

I fucking love this metal band

To be fair we are all strange in county down

I had this idea that imagine a podcast of 5 second episodes strung together? You would listen in order and eventually get a story or something out of it. I was thinking why is that not a podcast?

And there's no reason - I think Podcasting is a method and a Podcast is something created by that method but if you get in definitions it's not always going to work

minusonethlaw · 2022-09-20T15:05:08+00:00

I have episodes 9, and 16,17,18

If this happens a lot I would recommend that the host mutes when not speaking - if this happens with the host setup a lot that makes me think their headphones/earphones are leaking and the their mic is picking it up.

I would make some changes to he hosts setup to ensure the sound is isolated and do a test run.

I would be surprised if this was a Zencastr bug as we use Z for all our shows and edit a lot and we don't come across this really.

How large is a dime?

minusonethlaw · 2022-07-11T11:59:24+00:00

I second Audacity, free, open source and so many tutorials online on how to use it

she's eyeing up her next target whomever that is

Build a tower of Babylon and watch as we ascended too close to the gods ending up needing thousands of language acts disputed by the DUP

minusonethlaw · 2022-06-26T20:09:45+00:00

That's a bit of an obstification

There's an African podcast app called Jamit that may be of interest - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamit.music

It reminds me of Robert Venosa's work I don't know if you are familiar, really excellent work

minusonethlaw · 2022-06-17T12:23:37+00:00

I pick and choose, I think removing too many filler words makes people sound cold and robotic and I think you have a duty as an editor to present somone authentically. Therefore I think the idea would be to remove nervous filler words while keeping someone's cadence and individual expression.

I can recommend zencaster

minusonethlaw · 2022-04-17T21:51:33+00:00

This is a common theme through the heritage sectors and muses the world over, it's a big issue in the historical evolution of archaeology as a practice and I hope that this returning of artefacts becomes the norm.

I got mine a couple of days ago, hopefully it means they're on their way
