New Literacies Chapter Response for INTE 5340
The primary points of interest came in the opening portion of the chapter, specifically with the broadening definition of the word “remix.” Much like the term literacy, the term “remix” has been broadened beyond its more common usage (remixes of songs, i.e. when DJs remix other popular pop, rock or other song genres). Now, the […]

@ds106dc #tdc1515 Tree Seed Star
Relax in a quiet place. With your eyes closed, imagine a tree. Then imagine a seed. Then a star. See them joining or touching, creating a picture together, out in the west. When you’re ready, draw your picture.

Tree Seed The Stars
When you’re a silly person, Daily Creates (TDC1515) like this one, that obviously call for some response on a deeper more meaningful level, are trouble. This Daily Create is not asking for something trite. But I’m all about the trite! So I’m embracing the trite. Make a drawing with a tree, a seed and a star joining to create … Continue reading Tree Seed The Stars →

Sparking a Story
Daily Create today (TDC1514) is to create a story and a collage. I haven’t created a collage since the 1800s. Let’s see if I still don’t got it. By the way thanks for the help, Story Spark!

Daily Create: Five Image Story
Today’s Daily Create at DS106 was a multi-step affair — generate a story starter and then construct a visual story with five images. So, StorySpark gave me this odd story starter: An anxious storyteller spies on a quick-witted quantum chemist in a diabolical toy store So I went into Flickr Creative Commons to make this […] -
A Legion of Horribles

World Wide Western News Logo
I designed this logo for our radio program group using gimp. I had a rough plan at the outset, a circle with w’s twisted to different angles, but I did not like the outcome. So, I just experimented keeping things I liked any moving on until it looked complete. I used one of the western […] -
Quality Cards
For this assignment, I decided to make use of the fact that since I need a commercial for the radio show, I might as well get some stars for the week making one. I have mixed feelings about the final product. Probably some of that is due to the lack of copyright free music that […] -

Western Word Problem
This is my very first Daily Create. I remembered this photo I took in an Arizona ghost town back in 2011. The picture itself creates some weird mathematical paradoxes. It’s like taking a moment back in time somehow in this... Continue Reading →

Week 7: Radio report and assorted assignment.
So, this week was a bit slower than weeks previous. We made in some headway in at least laying a bit of a road map for creating our radio show, more details about which are here. I also put my design skills to use, limited though they are, and designed a logo for our radio […] -

Anyways this week was mostly dedicated to planning out the radio show for the following week, and working on audio assignments. I also worked on daily creates and […] -
Mikey, the Boy who wanted a Job.
Another audio assignment I worked on this week was creating dialogue between two characters which I took opportunity to dedicate this assignment to my western character, Riza, the saloon owner. This specific scene is when a young man, known as Mikey, is calling Tate, Riza’s husband, to follow up with a job interview at the […] -
Join Us at Mary Wash
This assignment called for us to create cheesy radio ad for our university. Since I am not funny, and I know a lot of UMW alumni complain about the meal/nutrition system at Mary Wash, I combined both these factors to create this. Please note, I am a commuter student, so I don’t know anything about […] -

A Day in the Life of my Character
This assignment was also a little difficult. I struggled with editing it to make it flow better. This assignment also helped me understand my character much better. This allows me to use him better in other assignments.
