racerocks.com goes Live at			QuickTime Live

		On October 11 2000, a special live webcast from Race Rocks was arranged for a presentation at the Distance Education session by faculty member Garry Fletcher at the QuickTme Live Conference in Beverly Hills. The Apple Learning Interchange had helped with the funding to register and stay at the conference. Back at Race Rocks, these pictures by Jaffar recorded the event. From the roof of the boat Second Nature, Damien operates Sorenson Broadcaster on the Apple PowerBook G3 while Ryan monitors on the iBook. Ryan also did an excellent commentary and description of what the divers were videoing underwater during the presentation. The webcast was done wireless to the AirPort base station in the marine science centre
Jean Olivier, the cameraman for the day prepares his equipment. Karl helps Paulina before entry. Diving instructor Chris Blondeau holds the camera for the entry before handing it underwater to Jean. The divers wait for the word by cell phone from Garry and then they take the plunge. Photos by Jaffar. Our thanks to Tiyona and Michael, also in the racerocks.com activity, who helped behind the scenes to make this webcast a success in California! Copyright Lester B. Pearson College This was all viewed ten seconds later on a big screen by the audience at QuickTime Live! Faculty members Matt Rise and Chris Blondeau feed out the underwater video cable to the divers. This cable enters the G3 by an "interview" cable plug in.
