    A Farewell to DS106

    by
    It has been quite a semester, has it not?  Throughout the course of the semester, we has been involved in a plethora of various media and creative thingamajigs.  This post is more of a footnote than anything substantial, as it just serves as a checklist for the multitude of “non-assignment” things from these past two […]

    All about that Bama (ROLL TIDE!!!!!)…

    by
    Hello again you s106 ruffians.  For my remix assignment, I chose to do the “Favorite Sports Paraphernalia”, remixed with “Uncle Bob”.   So, anybody that knows me knows that I am a HUGE Alabama football fan.  So when I saw this assignment, there was no question as to what I would use for my inspiration.

    Damn…problem with the power supply again!

    by
    Hi everybody!  So for the “Swede a scene” assignment, Ien Harris and I decided to recreate the scene in season 1 where McNulty and Bunk solve a murder while only uttering a single word between themselves.  What was really amazing about this scene was the level of comfort between McNulty and Bunk.  They were able […]

    That darn variable gravity…gets you every time!

    by
    Hello again folks!  Today I decided to do the daily create “A geek magnetic poem, please?”  This was a perfect assignment for me, seeing as how in my research lab we have a set of “geeky science” magnets on our whiteboard.  I spent a few minutes playing around with combinations, and settled on this one. […]

    What’s on your clothesline?

    by
    So for this daily create, I decided to imagine what would be on my clothesline right now if I used a clothesline.  Since there is a nice crisp in this Fall air, there would definitely be a football jersey and jeans hanging, and even thought they were just washed, they would still have grass stains […]

    Inspiration #3: Jeremy’s Design Assignment

    by
    For my third inspirational post, I chose Jeremy’s design assignment “D’Angelo escapes prison and is on the run”.  I am a huge fan of the series “The Walking Dead”, and **SPOILER ALERT** until tonight, there have been three actors from “The Wire” on the show.  The reason I chose this work was because I thought […]

    Inspiration #2: Travis’ Audio Assignment

    by
    For my second inspiration post of the week, I decided to go with Travis’ audio assignment “It’s Halloween Season”.  The reason I choose this assignment is because I think it is one of the best examples of a ds106 assignment.  It encapsulates so many things that are characteristic to this class: It is a really […]

    Inspiration #1: Ien’s App Logo

    by
    So for my first inspiration, I chose Ien’s “App Logo” design assignment.  The reason I chose this assignment is that Ien went above and beyond on this work.  Not only did he complete the assignment, he create a backstory to go along with it, as if he really is creating the app and is just using […]

    I’m With Frank!

    by
    Hello again ds106-ers!  I recently did the Bumper Sticker design assignment.  For this assignment, I tried to think initially of what person or event from “The Wire” season 2 could be portrayed on a bumper sticker.  I finally decided to create a re-election bumper sticker for Frank.   For this creation, I decided to keep […]

    “Go ahead…”

    by
    So for this assignment, I decided to use a photo of Stringer Bell.  He is shown in SO MANY episodes reading or with a book somewhere around him, so I figured it would be pretty easy to find an image of him to use.  The image I decided to use was one that was borrowed […]

    What would you do?

    by
    Hey guys!  So I was talking with my wife as we were watching an episode the other day, and we were asking hypothetical questions, such as “What would you do if you were Omar here?” (obviously the response here is always “Be a badass and mess things up for people!”).  So naturally when I was […]

    A few things have changed…

    by
    So I decided to do the ” Redoing a past pose” assignment.  I thought it would be easier that it was.  I looked through a bunch of old photos, and when I finally found one I was comfortable with remaking (I didn’t wear a lot of clothes as a child apparently) I took a quick […]
