I do not think Feldspar is going to hear any wailing from me for a while… In her typical “never do anything the easy way” Amy Burvall delivered me a lavishly animated (all the colors- black, pink, AND white) video of not just a story of connection, but ten of them: She’s got everything from […]
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 […]
Twas not my plan to make a mocked up book cover, even before breakfast. But so it goes, when the urge worms its way into my cranium. I cannot let go til I try it out. I woke up to back scroll twitter, finding the eminently sarcastic, funny, insightful, and a large number of standard […]
A totally inconsequential blog post. Because I can. A total key to learning how to work with / deal with the discourse discussion software we are using for the Udg Agora project (hey there was a BLOG POST on this) … has been the discourse meta site. This is where the developers hang out, and […]
tl;dr I’ll be *****ed if I will use such a cliché. This post is a bit techy, and is mainly for WordPress tinkerers, aimed to help explain something in an email I am sending Tom. But hey, you never can know if someone else is trying to do something like this. Hopefully you can know […]
Just to demonstrate how glamorous my social life is, I spent a few hours Saturday night redesigning how my pechaflickr site displays its images. As far as I am concerned, it was an ideal evening. Okay, pechaflickr is a thing I made a number of years ago to provide a place to practice improvisation. It’s […]
I got a message request from Mariana Funes Want to do new bumper for 106 spell starting Sept 6 can you record “Under the #106spell on a sunny Sunday on #ds106radio” for us when you have a moment? with a link to the song by The Kinks. She is referring to the DS106 Good Spell, […]
This week we move into the second phase of the UdG Agora project. After two face to face one week long “studio” sessions of 150 University of Guadalajara faculty, we move into an 8 week online phase where they are asked to develop and implement 3-4 challenges with their courses, creating activities that are student […]
