- Funkier Than An Algorithm’s Tweeter I’ve been enjoying listening to more doses of classic Ike and Tina Turner funk and R&B; these are in my collection thanks to @easegill sharing me his entire South Pacific music library when I visited New Zealand in 2015. This one song came on today that really caught my attention with it’s groove: (It has […]

- Is Bob’s Web Site the Future Geocities? I was just looking around on the web. No, not really wandering, In prep for an upcoming talk where I want to put the web of 1996 in context, I googled for popular Songs of 1996 (notice the typo!). Note the top result, above Wikipedia, above some commercial site: As it turns out, this site […]

- Blitzing Photos the ds106 Way Part of this this week’s ds106 work on Visual Storytelling is the “photoblitz”. We ran this in the in person sections last year as one way of making the class sessions active; we would give students 4 photo assignments to find examples of within the building our class was in. The idea was just to […]

- Slice 10: Dying on Stage creative commons licensed image from joe_x A mopey audio reflection following my second in person class of ds106, from two weeks ago. Seven minutes and forty six seconds of blah. http://cogdogblog.com/wp-content/audio/slice-010.mp3 Recorded walking home after a class that just did not flow well at all. I did not feel in best game form, the students […]
- Calling Card for a Fast Moving Hard Working Cop Last year in ds106 I built a few of my assignments out of the movie Dirty Harry — and having seen this movie just last night, I am just shifting to another classic San Francisco cop, Bullitt. I did this for the Bad Guy Business Cards design assignment — and completely missing that it said […]
- 1 Movie / 4 Icons Oops, I got in my mind to do a ds106 design assignment, and ended up doing a visual one! Oh well, it’s done. This is for the Four Icon Challenge (which to me should be design!): Reduce a movie, story, or event into it’s basic elements, then take those visuals and reduce them further to […]

- Shut That Blog Up, Will Ya? The recent flip of the calendar (well not so recent, jeez, it’s been two weeks) reminds me that February is the time for my annual blog hiatus– I take some time off from posting here and devote my attention to commenting on other people’s blogs. This makes for the fifth annual CogDogBlogMuzzle, having done so […]

- WordPressing Dissected: NMC Pachyderm Services Let me join the Jim Groom Kum-Ba-Ya I Love WordPress Chorus. In this least year, I’ve rolled out 3 NMC web sites that are published via WordPress, with each one going deeper into the bowels of the templates and just more jazzed how I can bend them to my will, casting CSS, PHP, plugins, MySQL […]

- My Reader Runneth Over Between travel earlier this week for NMC meetings, time off between now and Monday, and squeezing in many late night hours banging our new drupal site (should be able to share it in a few weeks), I’m feeling way behind the blog train. Just sifting through my RSS feeds, I am compelled to send a […]

- Presentation as Conversation (and Levine’s Law) I know I am repeating thoughts written elsewhere recently, but another great ah ha from the week here in Vancouver has been participating in conference sessions that were conducted primarily in conversational mode, in engagement with an audience, as opposed to the traditional mode of presentation as lecture, inflicted onto an audience. This is just […]
- The Dissonance of “Blogs in Education” It’s only been a few days since a number of fabulous presentation as conversation sessions on blogs, social software, and education here in Vancouver (I am still lingering at chez Lamb). D’Arcy has already posted a superultimate summary that distills the summaries quite nicely, and I am one of many where at our UBC and […]
