This is the second song for the RPM Challenge, it’s called “Nashotah Falls” and it might be depressing. You should be able to hear it right on this page, using the embedded player below.
You can grab it from Ourmedia or the Internet Archive, or blip.tv, and it’s got a Creative Commons Attribution License. (If you need something else, get in touch with me.)

This is the first song for the RPM Challenge, it’s called “Stress Test” and it might just stress you out a bit. You should be able to hear it right on this page, using the embedded player below.

Our pal David at Korporate Media lovingly crafted this video highlighting BarCampMilwaukee2, and I have lovingly uploaded it for all to see.
In the time since the first BarCampMilwaukee held in 2006, we’ve come a long way. The folks at Web414 have become a great force behind events like these. Web414 also helped sponsor BarCampMadison in 2007 and the recent DrupalCampWisconsin. Our next crazy idea is MilwaukeeDevHouse with MKEDH1 taking place March 14, 2008. (And hopefully BarCampMadison2 in April 2008.)
We’ve built quite the tech community here in Southeastern Wisconsin, and BarCamps in Milwaukee just keep getting better. People are sharing, learning, and making new friends along the way. Enjoy the video… and we hope to see you at the next big thing.
Matt Gauger has posted photos of his guitar gear before, so when I commented on one of his photos, he mentioned the RPM Challenge, which is to record an album in one month. I’m in…
I’ve been recording songs and publishing them online for about a year now, and there’s even a category for them called audio (and yes, you can subscribe to it.) All in all I’ve been playing and recording for over 20 years, but there have been gaps in that where I went many years without recording anything at all. This will be a nice “forced creativity” project for me.
I still need to install iLife ’08 for the latest GarageBand, but I’ll also be using Logic Pro 8 and the recording studio at Z2.
Since my songs tend to be less than 2 minutes, I will estimate that I need to record about 20 songs during February. I plan to collaborate a bit with the kids, and… well, whoever else happens to be around when I’m recording. It should be interesting… :)
Following in the footsteps of those before us, mainly SuperHappyDevHouse, we are starting something new in Milwaukee, and it’s called (aptly enough) MilwaukeeDevHouse.
And there will be numbers. And they will be sequential. And MilwaukeeDevHouse1 will happen Friday, March 14th, 2008 at Bucketworks in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. We’ll start around 7PM and go until we pass out, we get kicked out, or we’re out of ideas.
MilwaukeeDevHouse aims to be the premier regularly scheduled hackathon event that combines serious and not-so-serious productivity with a fun and exciting party atmosphere.
If you’re a coder, designer, or just someone who enjoys software and technology development, MilwaukeeDevHouse was made for you…
MilwaukeeDevHouse is intended for passionate and creative technical people that want to have some fun, learn new things, and meet new people.
There is a web site at milwaukeedevhouse.org with very little useful information, so visit the Web414 kids at node 170 and give them some love. Or check it at Upcoming or the Facebooks or even the Bucketworks new site (much of which runs Drupal, in fact, you should register while you are there.)
And if you’ve got an OpenID and agree or disagree with this statement: MilwaukeeDevHouse1 will take place March 14th, 2008, then say so…
