    Update on 28 February 2011

    Hi Everyone

    Day 5's recording is at: http://lectures.uct.ac.za/engage/ui/watch.html?id=Unscheduled-PhysicsLecture-day5-1298638984266

    Please contact me with any feedback, or if you would like to get the links for the audio or video media files.

    Update on 25 February 2011

    Hi Everyone

    Day 4's recording is at: http://lectures.uct.ac.za/engage/ui/watch.html?id=Unscheduled-PhysicsLecture-day4-1298552492712

    Seems like everything went well with the streaming yesterday, please contact Rene Kotze at 021-8082653 if your experience was otherwise.

    For the high resolution version of the archive copy, please contact Rene for the links.



    Update on 24 February 2011

    Hi all

    Yesterday's files have finished encoding on the server.

    Day 3 PART 1:
    http://lectures.uct.ac.za/engage/ui/watch.html?id=Unscheduled-PhysicsLecture-1298466155859

    Day 3 PART 2:
    http://lectures.uct.ac.za/engage/ui/watch.html?id=Unscheduled-PhysicsLecture-day3-part3-1298470828844

    The live broadcast went well but had far fewer numbers of views topping at 4 connections (as opposed to 15 on the first day) . Most of them dropped off after the 15 minute break. Yesterday's session was two hours long instead of the one hour as communicated upfront. That was due to the fact that Prof Fritzsch needed to make up some time. Please note that from today 15 minutes will be added to each day's lecture.

    Please remember to contact me directly on 021-808-2653 between 09h00 and 14h00 if you would like to receive the links for the high resolution archived copies.

    Update on 23 February 2011

    Hi everyone

    These past couple of days have been a roller coaster ride indeed! Yesterday's live broadcast was sabotaged by the lack of internet connectivity in UCT from about 2pm to 4pm. Hence today we've found a Vodacom 3G card we could use to stream if these internet connectivity problems continue. According to the UCT IT department, they've been resolved but we are going to use the 3G card to do the streaming with today, if we have problems again.

    The good news, the video recordings and downloads have finished being encoded on the UCT server and are now available. These are the links so far:

    DAY 1:
    Online playback of presenter and presentation with audio and screen shots: http://lectures.uct.ac.za/engage/ui/watch.html?id=Unscheduled-PhysicsLecture-1298293275419


    DAY 2:
    Online playback of presenter and presentation with audio and screen shots: http://lectures.uct.ac.za/engage/ui/watch.html?id=Unscheduled-PhysicsLecture-1298380892024. Please not that this recording started 13 minutes into the presentation due to a technical glitch that has since been fixed

    We find ourselves at the beginning of a far reaching medium to keep the South African Theoretical Physics community in permanent contact.

    Thanks to the efforts of UCT's Centre for Educational Technology , the Lecture Series presented by Prof Harald Fritzsch at UCT (from 21 Feb to 4 March) will be broadcast via live video streaming.

    Ten 60 minute lectures on the Standard Model of Particle Physics will take place daily at 15h00.

    This project is being made possible by UCT's Centre for Educational Technology who are willing to cover the costs of hardware/software plus HR resources to record and transmit the above Lecture Series. They will also record the lectures and place them in a repository for free access and archiving purposes. This link will be on the NITheP website after lecture series has been completed.
