Podcast Description
Iconochromatic is a conversational style podcast which reviews video games and films from the point of view of a couple of 30 somethings. We don't review an awful lot in one episode but discuss in some detail each item. We also feature music of our own creation in between the segments. Also, we're both contributors to the video games radio show and podcast One Life Left which can be found at onelifeleft.com

Pediconochromatic 22 “A blar brr brah bur” | I'm at work. You should be grateful there's any kind of podcast at all. It's b een a while since there's been a pediconochromatic so here is one recorded on my mobile phone rather than the dictaphone because Duncan forgot it. But then being as he's become a dad again recently, that's forgivable. Anyway here's the podcast... | 18 5 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pediconochromatic #21 – “Mental Indigestion” | What Derek doesn’t realize is that we don’t actually speak English – to us it sounds like a tongue shared by our listeners, but we actually speak like “Yip Yip ack ACK yip”. So in addition to converting the files and mixing them, I have to run the audio through a translation program with human speech synthesis. Since there’s no “posh Doncaster” accent freely available, I had to write this software myself – and rewrite it every time because for some reason our non-euclidian alien tongue corrupts the program as it is fed through. Not only that, for some piddling reason, I can’t use a high-level programming language. I have to write it in binary machine code using a microscopic magnet to directly flip the bits on my hard drive plates. Anyway, we talk about The Hunger Games fresh from the screen, but we ramble on a bit too long. Fortunately a cartoon monkey saves the day. | 7 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Iconochromatic Series 4 Episode 7 – Christielised | Duncan thinks he’s got it hard? I have to set up my studio for recording, check levels and that everything is switched on, create a running order, get special guests involved and then record it. After which I export it to a wav, edit it slightly in ableton, create a mock radio 5 live podcast intro, convert to mp3, create a cover image THEN upload to the website and write all this gumpf. Anyway this time we talk about: The Beaver Vidal Sassoon the Movie Hogfather. AGAIN. Watchmen/Alan Moore Hunger Games (but this should have been after the pediconochromatic about it) 21 Jump Street We are joined by special guest Wyl Christie. That’s it. Now go and listen. | 4 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Pediconochromatic #20 – “For some other definition of ‘eternity’” | So first I have to press record on the voice recorder, then we have to waffle for 15 minutes, then I have to connect it to my computer, then I have to transfer the files over, then I have to convert them from WMA to WAV, then I have to splice the files together in Audacity, then I have to export it as an MP3, then I have to log into Derek’s hosting service and create a new sub-domain for it and wait for it to appear, then I have to upload the MP3 via FTP, then I have to write this balony and link the file. Folks, there’s a lot of hard work required to be this crap. Anyway, reviews of The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret and Hard Candy. | 31 3 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
This is a podcast...
... for you to listen to if you don't like bombastic trash-talking, but prefer to be soothed by the sound of the inimitable Derek Williams, electronica pioneer, free-market economeer. Also features some other dude. Together they ramble on about games you've already played, films you've already watched and play music your mother wouldn't like.
A real podcast gem
I have nothing but praise for this excellent podcast. It never fails to cheer me up whenever I listen to another (sporadically released) new episode on my iPod. Has an pleasingly friendly and positive air, almost like the photocopied fanzines we all used to read.
Iconochromagic
Rambling, disjointed, tangential and entirely without any form of editorial determination, this is a pleasure to have on while you go about menial computing tasks.
Anyone who ever enjoyed listening to their film geek friends talk movies will appreciate this.
