<title>Ephemera</title>
<link>//podcastplus.net/feed/ephemera~4eee1a12</link>
<description>Each month, host Stephanie Bee uses primary sources to tell a story that could've only happened online.Ephemera is a show about the Internet that does its research and preserves stories in amber. It is made with an understanding that its listeners are just as fascinated with the liminal space of the Web as I am. It is a cyberpunk, plunderphonics, digital archive of human stories, particularly ones I find interesting.</description>

<description>  FULL TEXT:     Hey, babes. This is just a short little announcement to update you on ephemera’s release schedule during this whole plague meets great depression thing. If you wanna pull your patreon pledges, I have no issues with that, but they are still going to the ephemera research slush fund. I’ve been researching and writing episodes and our boy Miguel has been editing them, but we both had COVID symptoms at some time in the last month or two - he lives in New York, my heart goes out to the guy - which obviously took some time. Miguel just sent me episode #18, and after I listen to it, I’m gonna upload it for you to listen to. Episode 19 is about Horse Ebooks and the nature of Barthèsian simulation, Foucault, all that good stuff, and I expect to publish that during May as well.               I’ve fully written scripts for episodes 19 and 20, and I’m about half done with the script for #21. I also submitted Ephemera for publication and funding from the CBC, canada’s national broadcaster, an...</description>

Also, Gael Garcia Bernal is an ABSOLUTE smoke show throughout. My God, he’s SOOO hot. You should make time to watch it; I think you’ll really be glad you did.

People have written that the site updated at a variety of speeds - every 15 seconds, every three minutes, every twenty minutes, and so on - but the general state of things was a new image every fifteen minutes. Mr. Brown writes in his email to me:      “As I remember it, however, there were a few times here and there when the updates were more frequent. That was definitely a rare and short duration thing.”     Also, I state in the episode tha...</description>
