My friend Debbie (not friend like in the real sense) (or any sense) (but it sounds good) is so popular with her eHarmony bio video, she has like 10,000,000 views. She’s a star! And thus, she has inspired me to respond to Dr O’blivion’s opening video for ds106– here it is
Being open and supporting openness is one thing. You make the step to leave the door open, letting the outside come in, ro maybe just let them see inside your living room. But it also can feel like FoD Syndrome (Field of Dreams), if you Open it They Will Come. But it’s another whole level […]
ds106 is going to a new level of meta-ness, as unleashed live this morning on ds106.tv. It was here, that the teacher, Dr. O’Blivion, made his first class address, in the medium form which he will only communicate- TV.

My response was, :”it’s a first draft!” but I had been trying to do something […]
It’s just a Sunday, lazier morning in, longer coffee time at the kitchen table. The phone rang and Mom said, “Happy Father’s Day!” “But Mom, I’m not a father…” “Yes, but you have one.” She says it in present tense, darn she is savvy. If I was thinking of today, I might call it Father-less […]
This psychotic animated GOF was grabbed hastily from the Amazing Story video JIm did for me when he visited Strawberry last month. Not quite yet the perfect style, I am getting a better handle on isolating movement (sometimes- my Ayn Rand one was better). My current technique is: Load video into MPEGStream Clip Use the […]
cc licensed ( BY SD ) flickr photo shared by qthomasbower I’m starting a countdown for the start of my Road Odyssey, and today is 7 days out. I doubt anyone cares to read the minutiae navel gazing as I ramp up (or down) to this, but hey, I am writing for ME, ME, and […]
