By removing the creative process and leaving only the results of that process, you virtually guarantee that no one will have any real engagement with the subject. It is like saying that Michelangelo created a beautiful sculpture, without letting me see it. How am I supposed to be inspired by that? (And of course it’s […]
It’s time I eat my own remix food and do a ds106 remixed assignment assignment. I drew the One Story / Four Icon [remixed]: What’s the Prequel?. Here’s mine, which I call “Young Whipper” based on the original work done by MC Guirk: The original assignment, one of the all time classics at ds106, is: […]

Get it? “unexpected”. Enough pre-amble. It’s been exciting to see […]

It’s not quite the ds106 Speed Up Your Work Day assignment since I only grabbed 1 minute of video, but it was fun to play with speed up effects: I grabbed this from the Dedon Road overpass of I-95 during yesterday’s bike ride. It would have been better if I had propped the camera on […]
so…. @jimgroom @timmmmyboy a gentle reminder, in case you need design help with this is.gd/7kCbd5 #ds106 #pleeeez — Lisa M. Lane (@LisaMLane) April 6, 2012 You may feel ignored as you have been asking a while, but it has not gone unheard. I’ve spent an afternoon climbing around the underbelly of the ds106 WordPress database, […]

Continuing on a theme of tough cop genre, I made a movie mashup of Steve McQueen’s Bullitt mellowed out with the mellow sounds of Simon and Garfunkel’s 59th Street Bridge Song: Slow down, you move too fast. You got to make the morning last. Just kicking down the cobble stones. Looking for fun and feelin’ […]
My wild ride of teaching ds106 has been a bit like riding a crazy horse on speed. We are in the intense part of the course where students are working in video, and while they talk about how hard/challenging it is, I am seeing in many of them that fiery drive to create.
In already two weeks, I am seeing work I am proud of from people who had never edited video before, and are doing so with little or no formal training. They are just doing it.
We are collecting many of these in a delicious stack (yeah, that sky has not fallen yet), but wanted to highlight some right here. Please send some comment juju their way.
