    The Space Between

    by
    So, I woke up the other day in a beautiful spot. I was in between. It’s the only way I can describe it. There’s a big part of me that wages a battle between letting go completely and working neurotically and worrying about everything because that’s how I will reach my dreams. You hear from […]

    Beauty

    by
       What is beautiful?  Is it that something is appealing to the eye? Bright colours that correspond with each other on the colour wheel? Is it something natural? Does it have to be a landscape or a flower?  What about art? Why is art beautiful? Does art have to be beautiful to be art?  Or […]

    Storytelling

    by
    In this blog post I’ll be writing about storytelling. It’s one of the assignments for the DS106 . What is storytelling? This is one of the big questions because I think storytelling is something that is really human. I may have to revisit this idea if we ever meet aliens and they tell stories too, […]

    Here Giffy Giffy Gif Gif!

    by
    So I made this particular gif from scratch using Gimp. I’m doing it for the Double Gif Bonanza. It’s not exactly the assignment but I liked this picture more. I stumbled into it and I think I can replicate the process. It’s not quite right but I’m not sure how to fix it yet. It’s […]

    Tripping the Light Gif-tastic

    by
    So, here’s something I never thought I would do: Make a gif! I’m doing “Say it Like Peanut Butter Assignment”. This is the video I used to learn how to do it and what programs to use. Actually this is a lie. I went to those websites and got a virus. Don’t do it! I’m […]

    A Digital Facelift or A Bag of Gold

    by
    So I’ve used what is probably the most common title used for this assignment. It’s the assignment in Unit 2 where we watch some videos of Gardner Campbell and he talks about the “Digital Facelift” versus a real “cyber infrastructure.” I’m not ashamed. There’s no sense re-inventing the wheel or pretending to find the hidden […]

    The Daily Create: To Be a Kid Again

    by
    When I was a kid there was something I loved more than anything else. Wrestling. I wanted to be in tag team with my best friend to be like the Legion of Doom. I wanted to look like the Ultimate Warrior And to wrestle like Bret Hart and Mr. Perfect. I was eating and breathing […]

    DS106 Weekly Summary

    by
    So, I started this course on Monday and I have been really enjoying it. It’s hard because I’m not the most technologically inclined person. I mean, I can get by, but I’m learning so much about the nuts and bolts of how to do stuff. I really love that. I’m also amazed at how making […]

    What is Art?

    by
    I want to devote an entire entry to the question of “what is art” instead of putting it all together with the other things required in the weekly summary. It was also suggested that we create art in to explain what we believe art is. Writing is my art of choice so consider this to […]

    The Daily Create

    by
    Just a quick one, commit a random act of kindness. This is a very small act but I let someone cross the road in front of me when I didn’t have to. They waved and smiled and I smiled back. It was nice.

    The Daily Create – A Sweet Note to My Love

    by
    Dearest Paula, I love the love I have for you. The butterflies in my stomach flew away a long time ago. My nerves have calmed down and I’ve lost my rose coloured glasses somewhere along the way. Without these things I’m left with my real, true, honest and raw love. If love is a fire […]

    Hello World!

    by
    I think “Hello World!” is an entirely appropriate title for this first entry. I’m going to be starting my DS106 project. I have no idea what it will entail but I’m quite excited. I hope that it expands my horizons. I’ve called my blog Moving Constellations after the old Norse words “Runni Vagna” meaning ” […]
