Producer/Host: Jim Campbell The Motto on Maine’s State Flag says “Dirigo which Maine folks usually translate as “I lead.” In the case of a new law regarding the use of facial recognition tech by government, that motto is very true. And more discussion of bits and bytes and multiples thereof. About the host: Jim Campbell has a longstanding interest in the intersection of digital technology, law, and public policy and how they affect our daily lives in our increasingly digital world. He has banged around non-commercial radio for decades and, in the little known facts department (that should probably stay that way), he was one of the readers voicing Richard Nixon's words when NPR broadcast the entire transcript of the Watergate tapes. Like several other current WERU volunteers, he was at the station's sign-on party on May 1, 1988 and has been a volunteer ever since doing an early stint as a Morning Maine host, and later producing WERU program series including Northern Lights, Conversations on Science and Society, Sound Portrait of the Artist, Selections from the Camden Conference, others that will probably come to him after this is is posted, and, of course, Notes from the Electronic Cottage.

In this very late but controversial episode we talk about if AI will replace human art and Lennart is clearly struggling with finding the right words to describe his concerns, while Calvin is already looking forward to the next big robot band. He also decides to pick a really difficult song for pairing and enjoys Lennart's complaints, who suddenly has to leave.

Producer/Host: Jim Campbell Still in our back to basics frame, here’s way back to basics – bits and bytes. No matter how fancy a computer or smart phone or anything else electronic, at bottom it’s all bits and bytes.

This is ANTIC, the Atari 8-bit podcast. I’m Kevin Savetz.   I love old computers. If you’ve been listening to this podcast for a while, you knew that already. I also love musical theater. So when I found out about Bits & Bytes, a 1983 musical about computers — well, that’s right in my wheelhouse.    Bits & Bytes was an educational touring production, created by South Coast Repertory Theater, a professional theatre company located in Costa Mesa, California. It was a 45-minute musical show, aimed at school kids, that was performed at elementary schools across Southern California from January through June of 1983. More than 60,000 children saw the show.   The story is about Happy, a naive girl who goes into a computer store for the first time, wondering if a computer can “solve all her problems and make her truly happy.” Morton B. Norton, a pushy, overzealous computer salesman, tries to sell her a computer, with the help of wacky sidekicks, Bits and Bytes. Through speech and song, the team teaches Happy about computers — what they can and can’t do. A computer could help her be more organized, get her homework done, and play games. But Happy learns that a computer cannot really think, and is not a substitute for real, human friends.    ***   The goal of the play was to “show the realistic capabilities of computers as distinguished from commercial hypes and science fiction fantasy.” Another goal was to emphasize the “talents unique to human beings — what makes us different from computers.”    South Coast Repertory Theater’s educational touring productions took short original plays into area primary schools. The topic of computers was chosen for the 1983 production because surveyed teachers, parents, and principals overwhelmingly chose “computer literacy” as a topic they wanted to see covered. (Previous educational touring shows included Tomato Surprise, about nutrition; The Fitness Game, about physical fitness; and The Energy Show, about conserving energy.)   The play was written by Michael Bigelow Dixon and Jerry Patch, with music by Diane King. It was directed by John-David Keller, with set design by Dwight Richard Odle. The assistant director/choreographer was Diane dePriest.   An ensemble of five played all the roles, with one doubling as stage manager.  The cast was Robert Crow, Sam Hamann, James Le Gros, Laura Leyva, and Deborah Nisimura.    Bits & Bytes won the 1983 Pioneer Drama Service award for best new play. It ran for 246 performances, breaking the booking record for South Coast Repertory.   The January 29, 1983 issue of the Los Angeles Times said: “...in some respects the current show is the most impressive so far. Now that computer technology has entered the home and workplace—as well as the shopping mall—it’s noteworthy that a play can tell us how much more computers can do than launch missiles and gobble up space villains. … Diane King composed such a fine score—which includes evocations of different eras in pop music—that it almost has commercial possibilities of its own.   “Laura Leyva plays Happy, the girl who, for a very long time, is led to believe—along with the rest of us—that the computer will solve all our problems. That’s a dangerous and depressingly facile notion whose emphasis, early on, far outweighs the authors’ concluding moral that ‘computers can only deal with facts, not feelings.’   “But Bits & Bytes humorously shows its audience of kids how advanced and widespread the computer revolution has become and that they stand well ahead of their parents at its ramparts.”   ***   Texas Instruments donated a computer to the production: a TI 99/4A with monitor, peripheral expansion box, speech synthesizer, disk drives, and software. The computer was used as part of the set.   I interviewed three people who helped create Bits & Bytes: first, Michael Bigelow Dixon, who is co-author of the play. Next we’ll hear from Diane King, the composer. Finally we’ll hear from Laura Leyva, the actress who played the roll of Happy.   The interview with Michael Bigelow Dixon took place on March 9, 2018, with Diane King on March 6, and with Laura Leyva on March 16.   Look at the show notes, where you’ll find several photographs of the Bits & Bytes cast, reviews of the play, and articles about it. If you’d like to read the play or the score, that’s trickier. They are not online due to copyright. I borrowed copies via interlibrary loan.   If you saw this play, I would love to hear your memories of it. You can always email me at antic@ataripodcast.com.   Special thanks to Tania Thompson at South Coast Repertory for providing background information about this production, to Laura Leyva for providing photographs, to Michael Bigelow Dixon for providing articles from his archive, and to Diane King for digitizing her recordings from tape and allowing me to use them for this episode.   Photos from Bits & Bytes   Bits & Bytes article in Today Magazine, July 1983   Bits & Bytes in Family Computing Magazine, June 1984   Bits & Bytes in InfoWorld, Feb 28 1983   The Annotated Bits & Bytes - Orange County Magazine 1983-06   Education Through Entertainment - The Computing Teacher, 1983-10   Bits & Bytes study guide   South Coast Repertory Theater

New European privacy laws that come into force next month will change the internet forever and make privacy and data protection a legal right. Bits+Bytes, with Peter Griffin and Emily Wang, explores what the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR will mean for New Zealand internet users and businesses, as well as for global tech players like Facebook, Google, Amazon and Apple.

Who are the main players, who protects your security and privacy best, and why does Apple keep sending alerts that your iCloud is full? Peter Griffin looks at the options for safely storing data and photos.

Facebook blames Cambridge Analytica for allegedly obtaining personal information from millions of American Facebook users in an attempt to manipulate elections – but are the UK consulting firm really the only ones at fault?

This week, a warning about electric vehicles from a group of NZ citizen scientists, flying taxis to be trialled here, and why the people who sift through and remove disturbing YouTube content work a 4-day week.

Joining Peter Griffin to navigate the world of tech and analysing the latest news from the digital world. This week plans are afoot to position New Zealand as a base station for the global satellites sector. Also competition heats up in the broadband market pushing prices down, but will regulation see a hike in rates for consumers? Google rolls out free calls to mobile phones and landlines from their home assistant Google Home. Plus Emily Wang of Datacom on reports that users of Amazon's Alexa system are hearing the unit emit strange, "witch-like" laughter (if you do a search of #AlexaLaugh on Twitter, you'll see many funny/creepy examples).

Bits and Bytes with Peter Griffin helping you navigate the world of tech and analysing the latest news from the digital world. This week, Spotify goes public (well sort of!). But can it continue to dominate in the world of streaming? With over 70 million paying subscribers, it has nearly half of the global music streaming market, and users average 25 hours on the platform per month. Sky TV slashes prices this week as it loses subscribers and revenue to competitors like Netflix and Lightbox. And finally a listener questions about charging cables: why do Apple cables seem to fail so frequently?

Bits and Bytes with Peter Griffin helping you navigate the world of technology and analysing the latest news from the digital world. This week Snapchat becomes a real threat to Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, so why have over a million users signed a petition unhappy about a design change to the app? Plus horror stories are emerging from people seeking a replacement battery for their throttled iPhones, and Emily Wang looks at cryptojacking at Tesla, so hackers using Tesla's cloud computing to mine cryptocurrencies. And a listener question, why can't cellphone records be used to locate missing airliners like Malaysian Airlines' MH370.

The latest tech news and your questions answered with Peter Griffin. This week, the latest in the Apple iPhone throttling saga: could it be about to offer refunds for repair costs to the millions of users affected by 'Batterygate'? The casino operator Sky City bets big on the esports video gaming sector, and awkward revelations from court hearings involving ride-hailing company Uber which faces allegations it stole trade secrets from rival Waymo. Emily Wang looks at the multi million dollar white hat hacker industry - where hackers make money from big tech companies who pay them to find exploits and weaknesses in their hardware and software. Google alone spent $3 million on so-called 'bug bounty' programs in 2017! Plus your questions answered - this week how to set up Netflix on older TVs, and will a new undersea broadband cable mean cheaper and faster internet for New Zealand?

Bits+Bytes: Which internet service providers are getting the most complaints – and the simple steps to take if you’re feeling ripped off by your provider – and why Facebook has banned cryptocurrency ads.

Alphabet (Google) tightens up YouTube advertising rules; the future of smart speakers; Simon and Peter test out wireless home audio systems; and why has Facebook changed its algorithm?

Scrutiny of Apple intentionally slowing down iPhone performance heats up; more fallout from the world’s biggest hardware fault; gaming addiction now officially a mental disorder; and the Chinese electric car that's making waves.

Flawed computer chips, Spotify gets ready to go public as it gets sued for using unlicensed music, why facial recognition will be big in 2018, and another faulty Apple product, this time an iPad keyboard.

Apple may have to compensate customers after slowing down the processing speed on many iPhone models; Twitter prohibits accounts that promote violence against civilians; and how WeChat morphed from a messaging app to an everything app. 

Bits+Bytes with Peter Griffin and the latest from the world of technology. This week a decision in Europe means that Uber will be treated as a transport not a technology company by regulators. We look at what it could mean for the company's future plans, its listing prospects, and for the rights of Uber drivers. Also Apple admits to slowing down processing speed on many iPhone models after users upgraded to the new iOS 11 operating system. Apple says it's just doing what's best for its users, but faced with a slow, poorly functioning phone they might take some convincing! And an overview of the current state of augmented and virtual reality; Magic Leap unveils its new headset the Lightwear amid news of job losses at a local AR/VR pioneer.

'Cryptojacking' is not the latest urban dance craze, but a way your computer or smartphone gets hijacked to mine cryptocurrencies without you knowing. Also why some heavy hitting ex-Facebookers are criticising social media, and the threat it poses to democracy and the societies we live in.

Ging het ontwerpen van woningen en andere gebouwen vroeger nog op de tekentafel, tegenwoordig komt er geen potlood meer aan te pas. En dat komt door BIM, dat staat voor bouwwerkinformatiemodel. Daar spreken we uitgebreid over met Wiechert Eschbach, docent BIM op de Hogeschool Windesheim. Backup is Jan Postma, presentator van BNR Bouwmeesters.

One of the best known campaigners for civil rights of his day, a knighted poet, a gay man, a nationalist, a rebel: the life of Roger Casement's provides more than enough fodder for a big screen treatment. Exploring what such a movie would be like is the idea behind a new exhibition at IMMA, The Humaniser, by artist Simon Fujiwara. Screenwriter Michael Lesslie, who worked on the project, talks with Laurence Mackin about Roger Casement and the primacy of themes over facts in dramatisations of real lives. Lesslie also talks about his work on the new Assassin's Creed movie and an intriguing new writing project, blending fact and history in New Orleans. In part two: how can libraries survive and thrive in an age where texts of all kinds are multiplying at a dizzying rate and can be spread and shared in the digital space? The changing concept of the modern library was the focus of ‘Library Futures' Symposium at Trinity College Dublin this week. Hugh Linehan talks with speakers Richard Ovenden of Oxford University's prestigious Bodley Library and and Helen Shelton of Trinity College.

SONS OF MUSIC #010 by SOUNDS BY JB. (All tracks compiled & mixed by SOUNDS BY JB for SONS OF MUSIC.) Sounds By JB about his set: "The past years I've been exploring many different styles of house music and it is Techno that for me has been the most exiting genre to play. To be in line with the vibe of SONS OF MUSIC I've choosen some groovy relatively deep tracks with a nice techno bite for the first half hour of the mix after which I let myself go a little more ;P" From Sound By JB's point of view ... ONE memorable song quote: "The Show must go on!" by Queen. TWO artists, who should collaborate: Bob Marley and Richie Hawtin. If Marley was alive that would be one groovy electronic extravaganza. THREE things you would like to have with you on a desert island: Love, Food 'n Wine, Music. FOUR days ago ... was a Friday and as usual having my Friday Sushi. FIVE words describing the style of Sound By JB's guest mix: Banging Beats, bleeps, Bits & Bytes.

Sounds By JB about his set: "The past years I've been exploring many different styles of house music and it is Techno that for me has been the most exiting genre to play. To be in line with the vibe of SONS OF MUSIC I've choosen some groovy relatively deep tracks with a nice techno bite for the first half hour of the mix after which I let myself go a little more ;P" From Sound By JB's point of view ... ONE memorable song quote: "The Show must go on!" by Queen. TWO artists, who should collaborate: Bob Marley and Richie Hawtin. If Marley was alive that would be one groovy electronic extravaganza. THREE things you would like to have with you on a desert island: Love, Food 'n Wine, Music. FOUR days ago ... was a Friday and as usual having my Friday Sushi. FIVE words describing the style of Sound By JB's guest mix: Banging Beats, bleeps, Bits & Bytes.
