So I did a visual facilitation of some of the keynotes.

The track I settled on is sourced from the legally free <a href=\"http:\/\/jamendo.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">jamendo.com<\/a>. The track is called &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamendo.com\/en\/track\/100124\" rel=\"nofollow\">Minimoonstra<\/a>&#8216;, from the album <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamendo.com\/en\/album\/11082\" rel=\"nofollow\">THE FIRST PSYCHEDELIC TRIP VOL 2<\/a>, by the band <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jamendo.com\/en\/artist\/psydom\" rel=\"nofollow\">Speedsound<\/a>. The entire album is released for free use under a Creative Commons &#8216;Attribution&#8217; license.<\/p>\n<p>I converted the MP3 to a WAV file in Audacity. Brought that into Premiere. And did some minor editing to sync up the emphasis points of the vid with movement in the music.<\/p>\n<p>This is the result. A short, condensed journey into how I do <a href=\"https:\/\/royblumenthal.com\/profile\" rel=\"nofollow\">visual facilitation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><i>This video was made on my Rectron-sponsored Asus R1E tablet pc.
