Winter Trail Pt. 1

Daniel Pipitone — Sun, 28 Dec 2008 22:22:40 +0000

For this month’s special “winter” edition podcast for Lotuspike, the founders put together a series of winter-inspired tracks, including some custom made experiments prepared for the season. Winter Trail Pt. 1 was my contribution. A bit unpolished, and slightly on the muddled side, I am hoping to fix it up a bit more later, as well as develop Pt. 2.

SEI | DVD Series

In an effort to reinvigorate a dated preexisting inventory of DVD presentations, a new introduction was created for adding to the front of all preexisting SEI digital content, and a new production plan was rolled out for all new content.

All previously created editions will be re-packaged with new branding and marketed as the “Classic Collection,” while new content is developed within the family that includes, “Showcase Collection,” and “Educational Collection” presentations.

This approach allowed for a cost-effective way to repurpose old content, bringing the presentation in-line with the SEI’s newly developed corporate branding standards, while also providing a production framework for new content as they move forward.

Promotional trailers were also developed and used for marketing purposes via YouTube.

/ SEI Background /

The Software Engineering Institute is a federally funded research development center (FFRDC) affiliated with Carnegie Mellon University. The SEI’s mission is to advance the state of practice for software engineering and related disciplines.

Little Talk (demo edit)

Daniel Pipitone — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 14:00:23 +0000

Little Talk is currently my most complete audio work, released only as part of the 2004 Lotuspike Label Demo. The label demo CD was part of our press kit distributed shortly after Lotuspike launched, and was a music sampler representative of the label’s vision. It has not been released on any other compilation as of yet, however it is in regular rotation on somaFM.com’s widely-distributed Groove Salad stream.
