Episode Two.Twenty
Ravi turns over the guest introductions to Sonia who taps into her heritage to introduce Savvas Spyridopoulos, the producer and organizer of the upcoming Soundscape 2007 -- "a synergistic interaction of sight, sound, and crowd motion." In addition to providing a visual guide to the experience, Spyridopoulus issues a near legal disclaimer. And it's a crowded house as he insists on bringing his own guest for morale support. Plus, a dip into the DriveTime GloveBox for the first ever follow-up letter. And Ravi deftly slips in some Pig Latin. (QuickTime, 09:30, 46 MB)
