A quickly composed entry for the What the Font design assignment… Even as a kid I had a thing for the James Bond movie- I am not quite sure what parental supervision I was receiving. I had this little 007 car with petals I rode up and down the sidewalk- I cant say what connection […]

We buy/get music for many reasons, to enjoy it, but for many people (I hope) there is an interest in knowing more about the musicians, the meaning of songs -hence the liner notes that used to be part of the LP or CD package. I am reading now Bob Dylan in America and caught note […]

This is three weeks: (Feb 13-16): Washington DC for EDUCAUSE ELI (release of Horizon Report) (Feb 16-18): Keene State College (thanks Mike Caulfied who requested an invasion of the Secret […]
I’m a huge fan of Rogue Amoeba’s streaming software for OS X, Nicecast, and have used it before for broadcasting for projects at NMC.

I ought to go to sleep, but the shared assignments for ds106 keep tugging at me. And I cannot resist re-using this whacky flickr image. Assignment 50 is Come up with an aesthetic for ds106 radio. If you were to create a shirt, bumper sticker, poster, etc. what would it look like? See WFMU as […]
Taking a stab at the minimalist movie poster assignment for ds106. There are so many ways to slice this; I rifled through my DVD drawer and landed on this classic I rewatched (a few times), Paul Newman’s tour de force as Cool Hand Luke. While we know the classic opening parking meter decapitation, the “failure […]
