MM Webcast Reception report - 3/7/2001

[Denis DeLaRoca <delaroca@ucla.edu>]

Larry,

Americ's engaging presentation came thru perfectly via RealVideo -- save
for a brief pause/frieze about 13:20.

This is one time, where better technology/means would make a big
difference in being able to see online screens, projected images and
blackboard stuff... audio nowadays is very clean, but audio from audience
members is still a tad low.

Also, when Americ was talking about the comfort of the room -- toward the
end of the seminar -- and the ability to move, the cameras *did* not
succeed in tracking him thru his walk in the room... is this because of
operator inattention in the control room or did some automatic process
fail to take place?

And unfortunately, the seminar had to end at 14:30 sharp and so we missed
Americ's last remarks in response to some of your observations. :-(

All in all, great seminar and broadcast!. Hopefully, things were as
uneventful for the multicast version of the webcast.

Best,

-- Denis
