William Blake - Episode 1 - January 15th 2010

New series of live online broadcasts featuring the poetry of William Blake, the English poet, painter, and printmaker. Largely unrecognised during his lifetime, Blake is now considered a seminal figure in the history of both the poetry and visual arts of the Romantic Age. His prophetic poetry has been said to form "what is in proportion to its merits the least read body of poetry in the English language". Download with iTunes

New Year Thought...

As it's the start of the new year, we've been testing out different ways of getting our broadcasts out. Some interesting sites we've found are http://vocaroo.com (not too sure about the quality) although I have to say it's very quick and easy. Also unsure about http://tvider.com/u/user/englishradio

A good one for video seems to be http://twitcam.com/user/englishradio. Quality seems to be really good and it's got a good archive function. Let us know what you think.
