I want to start off by saying that I don’t watch TV news. It is my goal to be done with paid TV by the end of the year. However I am very well informed of the unparalleled, distressing, and traumatic times we have lived through over the past week. Through videos, photos, first hand accounts, discussion, as well as my own research and insights — I develop a perspective on life. I normally would not touch a matter that is seemingly political in one of my weekly briefings, but the matter at hand squarely intersects with my domain — technology and its use or misuse.

Like many of you, I have gone through a whole gamut of emotions since January 6th. Ultimately, I have tried to draw connections to the past and develop a balanced perspective. Reflecting on the past week and really the past four years, I wrote what amounted to a 6-page essay over the weekend. The problem is that it is not at the extreme end of either current major political philosophy and therefore, I don’t think anyone would publish it. The problem with our TV news is that “Network A” only likes to pander to their viewers to mainly report on the extreme elements of the philosophy (and its practitioners) that they disagree with. “Network B”, likewise, only likes to pander to their viewers to mainly report on the extreme elements of the philosophy (and its practitioners) that they disagree with. It’s ratings driven. It’s sensational. By and large the American people eat, sleep, and drink it all day long. I need to be on a diet, but that’s not the diet I want to be on.

The past four years of our American lives have been an intensely political time with strong emotions. This may surprise you if you have never had these interactions with me, but I would say that in this stretch of time clients have expressed some sort of political frustration 30 to 40% of the time. I have learned to be a good listener. At an appointment a client just said to me today, “I should just lay on a couch when you come over. You are like a computer psychologist.” Sometimes I just smile and nod. I try to make clients feel comfortable. Such a response should not signify agreement (from me or anyone in life), but I want to say that I am grateful for hiring me and I accept you sharing your frustration and pain. A little under 10 years ago, I was accepted to a Professional Counseling Master’s program. I ultimately dropped out, but I think I would have made a very compassionate psychotherapist. I try to incorporate those therapeutic skills and the heart of a teacher (another career I didn’t quite succeed at LOL) in my client interactions whenever possible. It’s what makes our relationship so unique. I want to leave a legacy of changed and improved lives.

It takes two to tango. The tides flow in and out. I think to have true healing in unity in this country (or even a country like Indonesia where there is also a lot of division right now), we have to take time to listen to what others on the completely opposite side of the spectrum have to say. We need to break bread and have meaningful dialog. The organizing and actions of mob violence in all forms that we have seen on the American landscape over the past year are illegal and should be prosecuted. However, when you step away from the fringes of both political extremes, you see neighbors, co-workers, and family members who just want to peacefully live their lives. On numerous fronts, there a lot of hurt people out there. (Something I learned from the therapeutic arena is…) Hurt people, hurt people. I’ll say it again: hurt people, hurt people!

So we have to decide, what do we want our legacy to be? One thing is for certain, I am not letting mine be defined by the fringes of society or any TV network.

Thank you for letting me share this message. I’ll step off my soapbox now.

About

LibriVox is a hope, an experiment, and a question: can the net harness a bunch of volunteers to help bring books in the public domain to life through podcasting?

LibriVox volunteers record chapters of books in the public domain, and then we release the audio files back onto the net. We are a totally volunteer, open source, free content, public domain project.

(In another language: Français: Comment devenir benevole)

LibriVox volunteers narrate, proof listen, and upload chapters of books and other textual works in the public domain. These projects are then made available on the Internet for everyone to enjoy, for free.

There are many, many things you can do to help, so please feel free to jump into the Forum and ask what you can do to help!

Where to Start

Most of what you need to know about LibriVox can be found on the LibriVox Forum and the FAQ. LibriVox volunteers are helpful and friendly, and if you post a question anywhere on the forum you are likely to get an answer from someone, somewhere within an hour or so. So don't be shy! Many of our volunteers have never recorded anything before LibriVox.

Types of Projects

We have three main types of projects:

  • Collaborative projects: Many volunteers contribute by reading individual chapters of a longer text.
We recommend contributing to collaborative projects before venturing out to solo projects.
  • Dramatic Readings and Plays: contributors voice the individual characters. When complete, the editor compiles them into a single recording
  • Solo projects: One experienced volunteer contributes all chapters of the project.

Proof Listener (PL)

Ldjam: Landfill Of Underappreciated Advances Mac Oshkosh

Not all volunteers read for LibriVox. If you would prefer not to lend your voice to LibriVox, you could lend us your ears. Proof listeners catch mistakes we may have missed during the initial recording and editing process.

Reader (Narrator)

Readers record themselves reading a section of a book, edit the recording, and upload it to the LibriVox Management Tool.

For an outline of the Librivox audiobook production process, please see The LibriVox recording process.

One Minute Test

We require new readers to submit a sample recording so that we can make sure that your set up works and that you understand how to export files meeting our technical standards. We do not want you to waste previous hours reading whole chapters only to discover that your recording is unusable due to a preventable technical glitch.

Dramatic Readings and Plays

Book Coordinator (BC)

A book coordinator (commonly abbreviated BC in the forum) is a volunteer who manages all the other volunteers who will record chapters for a LibriVox recording.

Metadata Coordinator (MC)

Metadata coordinators (MCs), help and advise Book Coordinators, and take over the files with the completed recordings (soloists are also Book Coordinators in this sense, as they prepare their own files for the Meta coordinators). The files are then prepared and uploaded to the LibriVox catalogue, in a lengthy and cumbersome process.
