The Daily Create prompt the other day – by my friend Karen – suggested a revamping of the Pledge of Allegiance recited in schools but I went in another direction.
Peace (from the nothing),

As the world watched with bated breath, the lander softly land on the Moon, and India and the world broke into applause at 6:04 pm IST on the 23rd of August 2023. Once more we were looking to the heavens and the South Pole of the moon for the need of w...

India, in March prepares for spring by stepping into a riot of colours and I happened to time it right as I arrived in Kolkata and finally made my way to Uttarakhand. There was also an air of celebration as the G20 presidency saw India step into 2023 w...

The Musky Dark Lord of Twitter has finally cast the fun loving, roll-in-the-grass-like-a-happy-dog DS106 Daily Create off of the tweeting lawn. This marks the end of 3811 successive never missed a single day of tweeting fun creative challenges openly and the last 2813 of them had, until today, been able to have their responses collected […]

Keep the internet weird and un-expected, not managed by machine languages and corporatized algorithms, but by the small human acts of sharing. Ok? This has happened to me countless times yet never gets old. So via Mastodon, all the way from New Zealand, my colleague Stephen Harlow thinks to share this: Indeed, in a YouTube […]
Alas, the first three months of the year I kept to my goal/obsession to stay on form for daily flickr photo posting and daily #ds106 daily creates. Yes, I hit the mark for January, February, and March. Alas by April 30, 2023, day 120, my slippage is showing, with 118 daily flickr photos and 108 […]

This video was made by the bots on the web, I received it after Colin, the Gifadog, had died that summer. It captured much of his last year. I only had to make minor adjustments to the video. He will be missed and remembered by many. It was a p...
Not that anyone is keeping score… well I am! For 2023 my double daily habits, the DS106 Daily Create and my Daily Flickr Photo routine have notched another perfect month, bringing both to 90 completions at the end of March, the 90th day of the year. This follows my streaks for both January and Feburary. Can this blistering […]
Despite the apparent demise of blogs the flat line of the RSS-ograph blips with a pulse from David Kernohan “on chatbots.” FOTA is alive! Unsure if my comment gets through the gate (a first one generated a critical WordPress error, sorry, David), but I have to at least assert my assertion, as if it blips […]
How often do we get to participate in small group open discussions of our practices? I am not talking about blipping in social media. Last, I chose to to be organize/be in 18 of them, and energized more energetic than any zoom webinar. That week was full on for my organization, Open Education Global with […]
The daily habit is on for a two month streak! Picking up in the January pace of batting 1000 for the DS106 Daily Create and my Daily Flickr Photo habit, by the 59th day of the year being 59/59 in both. As the kid asks… Daily Flickr Photos A bit of… Not quite the Ghostbusters […]
The clock is ticking for me to modify the WordPress theme that powers the DS106 Daily Create given that the slippery slope timeline for free, unfettered access to the Twitter API will sooner? later? tomorrow? hit the bottom. Just to be clear, nothing here stop the DS106 Daily Create site from publishing it’s 4050+ day […]

As I complete my annual evaluation, I find myself looking back over the prior year and my publications.
The post 2022 Year in Review appeared first on patrick r. lowenthal.
With grand intentions to stick to a schedule of daily challenges, by skin of my calendar teeth I am 31 for 31 days in both daily flickr photos and ds106 Daily Creates. I’ve held this pace before maybe 2 months? Does it really matter to get a perfect score (no)? But parsing some time to […]
Hard to believe it has been 10 years since I first started ETMOOC.Why after all this time do I still engage with this community and with the people I met along the way? Because ETMOOC was the beginning of giving me a space to learn and grow,...

You have heard me wax poetic about the beauty of the Himalayas many times over this year and yet it is very hard to really capture it in words. However, I have discovered that even more beautiful that the mountains itself are the people that inhabit it...
Yikes, I had to dig deep in the archives to find the last time I did a DS106 Assignment. I would like to think there is one in there about making an excuse for not doing them. Well there was one in 2020 when I made a DS106 Assignment for NetNarr, then the assignment timeline […]
