Antenna worked with us to develop the Barney tour from interview material we gave them, so they deserve credit, too. (BTW, you can see some of the video clips we crafted from the interview at www.sfmoma.org/barney.) As for docking stations, we were hoping they might be ready by summer, but latest word points later. Perhaps Apple will have a solution come fall. Grant, thanks for the shout-out. Antenna worked with us to develop the Barney tour from interview material we gave them, so they deserve credit, too.

Most of the podcast tour segments I've put together are about 1 - 2 minutes. Of course, with each artist I've got a 15 - 30 minute interview, and down the road I might make that content available ala the Hirshhorn . I really enjoyed Peter Samis' presentation at MW07. Peter, your M Barney podcast has been the model for the pilot I am working on -well done! Also, does anyone know if the iPod museum docking station is available through Apple yet? I know it was in the works at MW07. I have been writing a podcast for a contemporary art show we are doing, and have interviewed about 7 artists by phone.

Maybe I'll do a longer interview, then break it up into short, topical podcasts. Thanks for the tips. Maybe I’ll do a longer interview, then break it up into short, topical podcasts.

Our SFMOMA Artcasts are 15-20 minutes, but they're made up of multiple segments, each 3-6 minutes in length. We make a bit of an exception for the "exhibition tour" bonus tracks, which are less produced. There we're just getting a voice like Chuck Close or Kiki Smith or Richard Long out there and we figure it's more of a service to publish more than less. But even there we tend to go for shorter tather than longer... perhaps because we're aware of the time famine people seem to be living in! Filtering/pre-selecting is a service we can provide. The Hirshhorn takes a different approach, and plays back entire hour-long interviews and lectures. Listen and see if you like that. Then make your own decision. As for standing in front of a single work, shorter seems to be better! I agree completely. Our SFMOMA Artcasts are 15-20 minutes, but they’re made up of multiple segments, each 3-6 minutes in length.
