ok, i admit that the live argument was rather lame, but my point really
was that it might be more interesting to find a way to -use- the structure
of the internet in a more appropriate way, making use of the
"whatever-on-demand" possibilties.

to my fuzzy mind, such a system would be more like machines distributing
and recieving content autonomously aswell as on request. that concept
would allow for rather adventureous experiments in the realm of remixing
and programming....the various nodes in this kind of network would
permanently be mirroring and distributing content and possibly rearranging
or revamping their respective materials - and the "audience" could tune in
and at any given time  find something new and different...

so what im trying to say is that in the world of permanent connections it
is not necessary to think in time slots. also it is not necessary to
"sync" activity - you can have your server do that for yu;-)
machines are alot better at that than humans are, and especially the dont
care what timezone they are in, another argument against the live stuff
from my side.

so instead of following augusts proposition of trying to have club evening
of realaudio broadcasters, we can just go on using this mailing list and
try to get our shit tgether on making the various connections that are
needed to make all of our collective materials available - even after they
have been broad or narrowcast. maybe step one would be a coordination of
RealAudio mirror sites...
