Now let me know when you do something academically valuable.” “Grow up.” “(I can’t do that, people will laugh).” With senseless violence becoming a sad norm, with the weight of a world dying of overheating or exterminating its own biosphere, […]
Almost as much as grey page backgrounds, under construction barricades, and nested HTML tables, few things define the web of the 1990s as the animated GIF. It’s been rewarding and nostalgic to see the wave of resurgence in the lead up to the ds106 open course that should lift off this week. It’s been fun […]
