Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
It’s very rare that I go to the twitter web interface to read tweets (in their soon to be quaint 140 character limit form); like many I rely heavily on the multiple stream view of columns in Tweetdeck. Left side is my full stream which I barely look at; next is a column for a […]
That’s the classic Man With No Name minimal utterance “Get three more coffins ready” in the clip from Sergio Leone’s spaghetti western masterpiece A Fistful of Dollars (I love how after the gunfight scene that follows he says, as holstering his gun, “My mistake, make it four coffins”). For thinking of a DS106 trailer for […]
Today’s DS106 / Western Daily Create was to do some “research” on spaghetti westerns: #ds106 #dailycreate #tdc1457 Do Some Research on Spaghetti Westerns https://t.co/gBrUaW1JEf pic.twitter.com/aRXEhV6eMI — ds106 Daily Create (@ds106dc) January 4, 2016 This is one of those tasks that could be as simple as tweeting a link like Paul Bond’s refernece to a Mario […]
I knew right away this tweet would, could, and should be used against me: Oh shit. Here come the year end summaries — Alan Levine (@cogdog) December 21, 2015 So I am going to be the first pot to call the kettle black. I’m doing a year-end summary. Of course its reasonable on the turning […]
It’s less than an hour away from 2016. It took a bit longer than I hoped to finalize my flickr album of daily photos from this year. This makes the eighth year in a row of a habit of taking photos each day and choosing one to be my “photo of the day” This goes […]
Adam Croom is on a tour de force blogging like it was 2006 blowout, and just the opening paragraphs of his latest post Toward a Polaroid Pedagogy triggered those reverberations that signals to me… this means more than a comment. Adam shares an analogy from a book he is reading on a road trip, by […]
The DS106 Daily Create started January 8, 2012 in a site originally created and maintained by Tim Owens. I took it over a few months later when I went to teach/work at the University of Mary Washington, and populated/tended it until late July 2014. Then I had roped Mariana Funes into taking over keeping the […]
I sure were excited ’bout leadin’ a new herd of ds106 calves from the Kansas State University ranch. Me ‘n Bill even planned stuff over beans and a fire and even ole Hatchet Jack was ready to become unfrozen to be doing a new round of DS106. And when I got word from the KSU […]
Muchas gracias to the people who commented or messaged me about the 15 minute EDUPUNK retrodocumentary I produced for a presentation this week at the University of Guadalajara. As it turns out, we played only the first few minutes (up to the Quincy re-dub) as (a) it was too long and (b) most of the […]
I never expected to be blogging about EDUPUNK, much less presenting on it. But the folks running the CIINOVApp conference here in Guadalajara asked me and colleagues Tannis Morgan and Brian Lamb to bring it back (we are here by invitation from the University of Guadalajara a week before our UDG Agora Project events). It […]
