Concerning Our Recordings
- The video is limited to what was displayed to the audience on the large screen at the front of the lecture venue. We have no picture-in-picture video of our speaker at the podium.
- The audio was captured by the microphone at the podium and the lapel mike worn by our speaker. Questions from the audience were, as usual, too faint to be heard. (We always ask our speakers to repeat the question before starting their response.)
