Joining PRX
Becca posted on Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009 | Introductions | 2 Comments
One month after joining PRX as a Web Application Developer, I’m happy to report that I’m having a great time, learning rapidly, and already beginning to make some improvements on prx.org. I’m Rebecca Nesson, PRX’s newest technical staff member.
The PRX offices are only a short distance from my old digs in the Computer Science department at Harvard from which I am receiving a Ph.D. in Computational Linguistics on Thursday. (Really, who doesn’t want computers to learn to speak English?) And I feel right at home sharing space with the Berkman Center where I studied cyberlaw when I was a law student at HLS and worked on educational technology as a research fellow after I graduated. After many years in academia I wanted to work in a production environment where I could improve my engineering skills. But I didn’t want to go just anywhere. It had to be an organization that was doing something really cool. Enter PRX…
PRX is leading the way in helping public radio to flourish at a time when many other forms of media are struggling to remain current. In my view, the key to our success is figuring out how to streamline the best parts of what public radio already does and envision new ways that public radio can serve and grow its audience. We do that by building the technology to make it happen. As a programmer at PRX my work is to build the media environment I want to live in. That is cool.
In the near future I’ll be contributing to PRX by working on the core web application. As I get more experienced here I hope to be able to bring some of my computational expertise to bear on our technology and to help integrate PRX content creatively into online educational experiences.
When I’m not at PRX I’m generally hanging out with my family, which has grown from two to four people in the last year and a half. I’m also a big supporter of local farming and I volunteer as a board member at Waltham Fields Community Farm.

…just like PRX!

Saw the news today that a handful of Washington, DC TV stations will be pooling their video content and sharing as a way to extend their resources and reduce costs.
That sounded familiar!
On PRX, we urge stations to share and share alike. But not just produced pieces. We urge you to consider:
Have we ever tried this? YES! Last year during the Election Collaboration and..the audio is still there for you to license, edit and mashup. Check out some of our campaign audio and here is an example of a show that used archived, raw audio for a powerful production.
Collaborate, share, post to PRX!
