Among other things, the conversation includes his professional experience with one of the buildings in Cascadia's Living Building Challenge, his personal challenges of lenolium floors in his "green" house, and his interestingly cautionary views on the green product design craze.

He also mentioned the Kill-a-Watt, which is a simple product that measures how much energy your appliances are costing (you might be surprised).

Before I post my final podcast from my amazing year at Insead, I wanted to post the following quicktime presentation of my trip to Bangalore, Mumbai, and Kerala in India. Particularly now following a violent week in Mumbai, Lebanon and Israel, I wanted to make sure to post this.

Overall, the experience of visiting the 'chaotic democracy,' 'functional anarchy,' and 'lumbering elephant' was amazing. Hope the video comes through to all of you iTunes subscribers.

The latest podcast from INSEAD Singapore highlights a new remix of "Everyday Choices" from teru as well as a new "Blue Ocean" song written collaboratively with friends while on a trip to China. Five remixes so far, and I include my favorite so far, "Blue Ocean Electro Rmx" by Beatbros. Once I head back to the France campus, I'll be talking with the authors of the Blue Ocean strategy book, W. Chan Kim and Renée Mauborgne, to see if they'll endorse the song.

Hope everyone is well. Keep up the good work and send feedback via the comments or over the voice mail at +1 206-984-3144.

Colin http://colinmutchler.com colin@activefreemedia.com My first podcast from my new home in Singapore, which has been wonderful so far. In addition to impressions of my first weeks in the third period at INSEAD (and the exciting course projects), I also share a remix of a new system by teru as well as a clip from a fun and slightly ridiculous song by Peter O'Neil from Philly about an amazing place in my home state of New Jersey, good ole Belmar.

Hope all is well. In case you wonder, this is actually the 9th episode, not the 11th, which I mistakingly said in the podcast....

Highlights include a sample from a new remix of More Than 2 Sides, an improv/freestyle song "EBITDA" (from Financial Accounting class), and some late night voices from last saturday's Ville Cerf Toga Party.

Also includes instrumentals from "History (instrumental)" by Comfortable Silence. Be well and take care.

The first full week at Insead was full of classes, dinners, homework (missed), and the new (and confusing) language of finance and accounting. This week's podcast starts off with a short "school" rap written back in 1999 when I was a teacher in Harlem. It also includes a spoken word piece about the week called "tutorial dreams," and then finishes up with an Insead original rap by co-MBA student Christine Driscoll, recorded live last night at the Vieux Moulin dinner party. It also includes "Love and the Electric Symphony" by NYC friend and musician Dien Vo.

The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of excitement, anticipation, goodbyes, and introductions. This activefree podcast #2 is the first from my new home, an amazing house called "Le Vieux Moulin" in a river in an old medieval town called Moret Sur Loing in France.

My first week of math class and the welcome week were full of surprises and amazing people (mostly men) from all over the world (except not much from Africa). This podcast includes samples of the last recordings in Brooklyn, the late night songs after most people left the goodbye/thank you party at St. Felix St. It also includes a decent improv song titled the same as one of my pre-reading books for Insead, called "Essential Mathematics for Economics & Business."

Also, much love to all those without homes and without a city in Louisianna, Mississippi, and elsewhere. It's strange to feel so out of touch with a major tragedy in my country. Be well.
