Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
Just for fun, published to medium… I Can’t Do Much About Internet Spam (But making fun of them makes me feel better) Top / Featured Image Credit: My Photoshop remix of an image spammed at me via twitter. In my book, spammers have no rights at all least of all rights to prevent me from […]
I do not even want to look to find out the last time I officially completed a ds106 assignment (probably last time I taught, Spring 2014). But I was so inspired by Bill Genereux’s new one, A Scene We Didn’t Get To See: Create a short video that shows a scene from your favorite TV […]
This year is the fourth iteration of a course in the Netherlands that I support remotely with Nancy White. Offered at the Hague University of Applied Sciences in the Industrial Design Engineering (IDE) program: Project Community is a project, a community and a set of tools for using online communities and networks for enhancing the […]
I so adore Maria Popova’s Brain Pickings though she is so prolific, my reading is always lagging. But the weekly summary in my email, jaunted me to read The American Scholar: Emerson’s Superb Speech on the Life of the Mind, the Art of Creative Reading, and the Building Blocks of Genius.

Plug yer ears. It’s another Alan cover song. And its pretty horrible. This one has been in my mind a while. First, I really really like Cracker’s song Teen Angst, it’s a rocker and a half (and the video even has a dalmatian running around in it) with that lyric What the world needs now, […]
I did not know my wails of despair were heard by by co-habitant. I started my campaign a month ago asking for stories of connection, and a few did come in. I saw more tweets and retweets than stories, and even enlisted Bugs Bunny to the cause. Well I do have 13, peeking way down […]
Four years ago today, it was just another one on part of my 15,000 mile “Odyssey” Road trip. I was leaving Welland Ontario after a very special one week visit with Giulia Forsythe. I called my Mom (in Florida) in the morning for our usual quick touching base calls, just another call where we teased […]
