Telling Stories At My World Of Tomorrow

Sep 28, 2015 | ,

The evolution and, in some instances, disruption of media platforms has thrown the world into perpetual flux. The cries of this being dead and that being the future reverberate around the world endlessly. But, when we look at the reality, particularly from a business perspective, it isn’t that clear-cut, even more so in Africa. TV, radio, magazine, newspaper, websites, social media, etc. are all undergoing constant change and with the level of innovation the world is experiencing, there may be something just around the corner that will create even greater turmoil. We are just trying to find...

Top 10 SA Entertainment Blogs

Sep 2, 2015 | ,

I have always found anything that comes with a ranking extremely subjective and, therefore, open to discussion/ debate/ disagreement. But I am not so foolish as to look a gift horse in the mouth. The people over at Buzz South Africa have put together a Top 10 Outstanding Entertainment Blogs In South Africa 2015 infographic and have included this site on the list, which I am grateful for. I've been running it since 2009 but, I must confess, have often been erratic with it due to life. One day I will get round to running the editorial calendar that I have in my head. It is encouraging that...

Kojo Baffoe & Steve Slotow present The Art of Life Eps 11

Oct 14, 2013 |

So Steve Slotow and I are still plugging along - albeit slowly - with the Art of Life web series. We are on Episode 11 and the intention is to keep building. We'll see where the experience takes us. In this episode, Steve talks about the Windows 8 powered HP ElitePad and Telkom Mobile's free wifi offer (in South Africa) which is running till December 5th while I try to get the iHealth Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor to work properly. We are now running the series on a Vimeo Channel and is also running on AlternaTV. [vimeo]https://vimeo.com/76800880[/vimeo] As always, a thank you to 21Tanks...

Kojo Baffoe & Steve Slotow Present The Art Of Life Eps 9

Sep 2, 2013 |

The 9th episode is done. Shot, edited and finally up on our YouTube channel which you can check out and subscribe to HERE. We generally shoot a couple of episodes in advance and then it is the process of editing and uploading. It would be good to get feedback from those of you who interact with the series either here, on Steve's blog or on YouTube. The intention is to keep going and see where it'll take us. Maybe we'll throw a party with Episode 50, or something. Anyway, in this episode, Steve and I chat about the Sony Action Cam, which is going head to head with the Go-Pro range of cameras....

The Art of Life Eps 5

Jul 3, 2013 | ,

Another episode of the Art of Life with Steve Slotow and myself is in the bag and live. My piloting inadequacies were front and centre with this episode and we also chatted about the Xbox One (no, we don't have one) and the iGrill. Please go over to our YouTube channel and subscribe (if we don't bore you to death) and share. Also, I've said it before, but if you have interesting products or stuff, share them.   [youtube]http://youtu.be/yNWzA5shTWo[/youtube] Shoot at 21Tanks

The Art of Life Eps. 4

Jun 28, 2013 |

The intention is to go weekly with The Art of Life. In this episode, we talk about the quirky Q-Bopz, iShower and Sony headphones. We're still experimenting with format, shooting, cameras, etc. Maybe we'll even have a script and make-up, one of these days. We're starting to have a lot more fun and hopefully that comes through. If there is anything you'd like to hear our 'informed' opinion on, drop a line here, on Steve's blog or on our YouTube channel. A big thank you again to 21 Tanks for letting us use their dope office space as our studio. Enjoy....
