Audio Production Thursday Style. . .

And here we are at the end of January already! My, how time does fly.

In any case, here are a couple of shots of Thursday's at-home attire, another variation of the usual cold weather uniform when I am not on campus. The usual corduroy jeans in one color or another with either a plaid flannel shirt (tucked in), or a Rugby jersey, and one of six ribbon belts in the rotation. A cozy day spent down here in my office, aka Zum Stollenkeller, recording and processing the latest edition of my podcast to provide added support to the students in my hybrid courses for Spring 2025.

Gotta love the Shure and Rode hardware combined with the audio processing software from Waves and Universal Audio! That's stuff for a different discussion however.

Yesterday's 12-minute episode was on the importance of learning teams taking a close look at, reevaluating, and modifying their collaborative work habits following completion and submission of Team Project #1. I'll embed the finished audio in the Week Six course module set up in our online learning management system for students to access in three weeks when we actually get to Week Six.

But I digress! Yet again, the clothing illustrated above shows that one need not stray into perpetually adolescent slob territory even when at home and out of sight. Dress presentably for yourself.

The Problem of "Business Casual" Attire. . .

This is how it's done. Business Casual the RIGHT way, ladies and gentlemen. Even during the summer months. A photograph (taken by Studio B Portraits ) which appeared in 425 Business Magazine in May 2017. T his post on the problem of business casual dress began as a quick postscript to a previous blog entry last week but quickly grew and grew as additional thoughts occurred, were developed in more detail, and revisions made. So much so, that it seemed, eventually, like a better idea to make the initial P.S. afterthought into its own entry . Are ya ready, Freddy? Then, here we go. . . ------------ U nless you actually plan to sell beach snacks and trinkets on Cozumel, become a serial barista, or greet customers at a fancy nightclub after taking out huge student loans to attend university somewhere for four or five years, plus an MBA afterward, it's really a better idea to err on the side of (somewhat) more formal work at...

Friday on Campus Style. . .

S omewhat atypically, I was on campus for several hours today helping with an interview that is part of a larger documentary project on which a colleague and I are working. Although I am behind the camera (I'm the audio guy in fact), what better reason does one need to dress presentably? Exactly. Everything worn, barring the recently purchased University of Wisconsin socks, a gift from the Grand Duchess, has been in the rotation for a while now. And, of course, there was the Panama hat, which I'll wear until we pass October 1st when the felt fedoras reappear. -- Heinz-Ulrich

Tan Suit Tuesday. . .

W hile it's now after Labor Day here in the U.S,. we still have almost three weeks left of summer according to the calendar. And since today was bright, sunny, and pleasantly warm (though far from hot), it seemed like a perfect opportunity to trot out my tan cotton suit and tan loafers/belt. Slightly disheveled, yes. And the shoes need some Renovateur to moisten 'em up But not a bad overall look if I might be so bold. -- Heinz-Ulrich
