Essential Travel Items and the MacGyver Bag Strategy
John C. Dvorak details specific items on his travel list, including antacids for air pressure changes, confirmation numbers, and a "black tie" for formal emergencies. Adam Curry counters by describing his "MacGyver Bag," a pre-packed kit containing all necessary gear that he never unpacks. Dvorak points out that Curry still managed to forget his fader buttons despite the bag strategy.
Curry describes using an iPod Touch as a handheld browser and a wireless MIDI controller for his Ableton Live studio setup. He details using AKA Remote software to trigger jingles and control faders remotely, while planning a future screencast to document his technical workflow for listeners.
