Tuesday Apr 09, 2024
In the audiovisual industry, there is a strong sense of community but we often get so tied up in the day-to-day that it can be easy to forget to have fun together. However, a group is forming to change that, one "dink" at a time. Host Katye McGregor Bennett is joined in this episode by Alex Capecelatro of Josh.ai and John Sciacca of Custom Theater & Audio in Murrell's Inlet, SC, who are working hard to make a CEDIA community Pickleball event happen during the week of CEDIA Expo 2024. Attendees and Sponsors are needed so please, tune in to hear not only what Pickleball is but how you can sign up for the event set to take place during CEDIA Expo week in Denver, CO. You might even learn what "dink" means.

Author and AV industry pro Kat Wheeler talks about her new book, There is no cloud, and what it took to get it published (during a pandemic, no less).
Story brief: As a sales rep for SmartTech, the world’s largest home automation company, Cameron Caldwell’s job is to keep customers happy… and buying. That means the current bane of her existence is a rival company’s home AI device, the HomeTech Hub. Her customers want to use the HTH’s voice commands to control the electronics she’s selling them—and if she wants to keep selling to them, she needs to make sure that happens. Why can’t they just ask it the weather and be happy with that? While attempting to get tech support for one of her clients, Cameron finds something strange in a HomeTech Hub and is immediately curious. Is there something about the product no one’s supposed to know? But when people start dying, she knows something far more complex is going on, and she’s determined to find out what the technology the whole world has let into their homes actually does. As Cameron digs deeper into something she never thought would be possible, she starts to wonder what she’s gotten herself into… and whether she’ll be able to get out.
