Working on GIFs again during this week of self directed learning. I have been wanting to figure out how to put two layers of action going on and sound. I also was very impressed with the Hulk GIF by Jim Groom and wanted to figure out how to do one similar – but not quite ... Read more

A rather odd week it seems. Several independent things all together just making it odd. Or maybe it is settling into balance #4life by remembering to look up and see what else is going on and other creation possibilities not necessarily tied to No. 6 or tales of fairies. Video  – a time for definite ... Read more

TDC1298– Make a drawing with a cut out for clothing. Take a photo of your  card and environment to complete the image Well – sort of took liberties. I did not do a drawing only a photo. Short on paper and drawing utensils and didn’t think of my Paper53 until after doing this. I found paperdoll ... Read more

A relaxing day in the Village while No. 2 is missing. Not as productive as @byzantinebooks, I saw that he spent the day working in his bungalow as well. Then I saw @iamTalkyTina posting the catapulting chickens so decided to work on getting my chicken to actually cross the road. Still trying to figure out the ... Read more

Thanks to all for making my DS106 world real. I hope you enjoy the Fairy Tale of the journey so far. I created this while hanging out in my bungalow in the Village for the Bovine FairyTale Festival (hoping it counts for credits in both!) Well – the week to stretch some skills has come ... Read more

Design Assignment for Week 4 Out of the two choices of the “to do” assignments – I chose the book cover recreating  the aesthetic of Spacesick . My first thought was the Dance of the Dead episode and having multiple skeletons, a sample was too close to that content and swaying me in replicating instead of creating. While ... Read more

 I started reviewing the footage from the General to find information on what might have been saved when things blew up. I think it was a plan from the start – who to trust? Looking at the video – I was able to slow it down enough and see the shadows – look at #2 ... Read more

    Penny Farthings  – It is like when you get a new vehicle or a new addition to your life – you begin to see them everywhere when you had thought they were unique. So goes the Penny Farthing. Since summer of Prisoner106 has started I am seeing the dang things everywhere! Cathy Jo Nelson – who ... Read more

 I was out walking on my way to a bungalow design session for #7. I was a little concerned as I don’t know who #7 is or what his history is in the village. After taking the hidden shots of different signs in the Village I have been a little on edge not knowing who ... Read more

@mdvfunes asked if I had seen any signs on my walks through the Village. I did! – But you know they are watching! So I carefully placed a  camera in my hat and tried to capture some of the signs as best I could for Mariana to research. Because of the covert mission – they ... Read more

A photo safari as a resident in the Village is a challenge. It does need looking at the Village differently and in finding meaning in what is right under our noses. Will this assignment keep us from becoming fully assimilated? Or are there hidden subliminal messages in the village to convince us in accepting our stay ... Read more

I was sent to a resident bungalow this week to help in creating a new arrangement for the occupant. First priming and painting were done first. The resident decided on Rye Grass green for wall color  – it reminded him of when he was a child and felt like all the cares in his world ... Read more
