Cooking with Gas - Seminar 1

Two milestones achieved today, firstly the IT department sorted out an interim fix in order to allow me to compresses .mp4 files down to a more user friendly size for uploading onto the blog.  The video quality has suffered a bit but hopefully is acceptable.

Secondly I have got round to recording Seminar 1, the first in series which I did not record on either of the two occasions I delivered it previously.

As referred to in my first Post, Seminar 1 is essentially an introduction to the topic of Geology and at a very high level covers topics which will be talked about in greater detail in subsequent Seminars, each of which will focus on a particular aspect.  I also introduce a number of historical and current geologists who I consider to be particularly notable (those living who are not on the list should not be offended; I need to keep the presentation down to a realistic length and you omission in no way demeans your importance in the field of geology).

So far I have not had any comments or feedback on previous posts or on the Seminar recordings.  Any feedback is welcome, good or bad in the name of continuous improvement.

Now that I have a mechanism to compress file sizes down I will progressively upload the recordings I have filed for Seminars 2 to 5 and 17 for the viewer to peruse.  Seminar 17 will probably be next (yes I realise this is out of sequence) because I have a request to make the recording available for two budding geologists.  Happy viewing.
