It’s visual sarcasm! I cannot help the impulse to find media and recast it into something else. Please do not sent help.
I calculate multiple years have passed since I recorded an EdTech Cover Song where I lamely rewrote lyrics, munged some chords, to be dumb enough to post online my bad talent. But I love the act of rewriting lyrics, all on my own, no LLMs in the mix. Just to get the cringing out of […]
Just like almost everyone with a soul, a partial mind, and a heart, I am aghast at the crumbling into a fascist pile of the country I was born in… and semi-paralyzed on the “what to do”. As mostly, a release is creating something, a visual statement, expression brimming with angry sarcasm. How literally organizations […]
Whether the excuse is pandemic or not, it has been a loooooong time since the guitar has been out of the case, even longer since penning an EdTech cover tune. Without more blathering, here is a bit of crooning by Bob CC-by-an with an open education protest song This was done hastily as part of […]
What could be better news that Kirby Ferguson is launching a new wave of Everything is a Remix? Even if I do feel old seeing Tik Tok (I’m not there, but I get it) (that of course cannot be true) (except for being old). What happens when something you created long ago gets peeled back […]
There was a song in my head ever since I heard the news that the overzealous Proctorio was SLAPPing Ian Linkletter for his revealing their company IP by tweeting their unlisted YouTube links. Surely I’m not the only one. It was time for a long overdue (as if anyone is really waiting, I mean to […]
As soon as Chris Gilliard shared the flying Ring drone my mind went to free association. It went back to the Twilight Zone episode “The Invaders” just for those scenes of Agnes Moorehead whacking at the flying invaders in her cabin. This episode is brilliant on so many levels, especially for the lack of dialogue. […]
There you go, try guess the nature of this blog post from a word heavy vague title. Better yet, just go first and try the thing I will be ‘splaining right here. Well, are you back? Did anything happen? Because one of our students in class (she too a teacher) asked as well as my […]
One of the last of the Bloghicans hit his 3003 blog mark today. While out walking today, as it often does, that was swirling around in my head when I also, for some reason, cross associated with Pete Seeger (don’t ask for logic). But I heard an ed-tech cover song fermenting, and when that happens, […]
For no real or sane reason, was moved to do a cover version of Donovan’s Season of the Witch in my own variation as homage to DS106, which like a witch, cannot be killed. I play it differently than the original that’s what makes a cover version and not a copy. Just two chords, with […]
The name of the band is subject to argument, but like those Brits in 1970 rocking atop a roof, at the Domains 2017 Conference something happened atop a rooftop in Oklahoma City. And then after the conference, weirder stuff happened — people went home and fired up good old fashioned blog posts. Just like it […]
