Morning Ride on My Unicorn

What a Long Strange Road Its Been
Today’s Daily Create was to remember the first words you wrote on the open web. I have no memory of that… I had a 12 pound laptap in 1989. I started teaching distance classes vie email in 1993. The internet came online for us in 1995. In 1996 I was teaching in Lane CC’s computer […] -

The Poem in the Mirror
It all started with the Daily Create, which challenged us to look in the mirror. I posted this picture of me doing a mirror selfie. In another country, Scotland, I believe, John Johnston picked it up on the Daily Create site (and by default Flickr), and he wrote an art critique of it: In it, […] -
Sound Map
The Daily Create was to make a map of nearby sounds. I did some app smashing on this one. I began in Paper 53, thence to Bazaart, then DistressedFX to add birds, and then Perfectly Clear. -
Coho Run
Today’s Daily Create assignment is: Make us an experimental water photo November 5, 2014 From the experimental photos website: “Waterfalls and waves are no longer the only way to capture the beauty of water, reflections, splashes, abstracts and puddles provide a much more challenging photo opportunity. For example, water reflections can’t have sunlight shining directly […] -
Snapshot Story Day
Hi Happy Campers, So sorry I had to bail last week; I kept thinking I would make it to class, but more or less at the last minute, my husband convinced me I was a public viral menace and should stay home. But I missed you! Here is a playlist of Snapshot Stories at the […] -
All the Beautiful Ghouls

Let It All Hang Out!
Couldn’t resist adding text to my Daily Create, which was to draw a clothesline. The first drawing was done in Paper 53 then I got help from several other apps, including Bazaart, XNViewFX, Brushstroke, and Path On. -
Shameless Adorations of Our Cats

This one is for my friend Kathy Thomas. She has to drop the class for now, but I am hoping she will still continue to work on her blog and post to the ds106 tag! This is the first video I made using the Replay video app. Hope you like it, Kathy! -
What’s in your Signature Name?
Daily Create asks us to explicate our signature… Sandy Brown Jensen October 27, 2014 I started out as Sandra Mardene Brown.

Do You Want to Paint With Light?
The Daily Create was to do a light painting, but I wanted to use the new Replay video app, so I made this little inspirational video on the topic instead. -
La Selfie Emoji
The Daily Create wasn’t very clear, but it was something to do with the Japanese picture characters called emoji. I know what emoji are because I looked them and found the emoji-pedia. I used the Bazaart app to layer an image of Annalee Fuente’s linotype called “La Selfie” with the Selfie emoji. I used Perfectly […] -
