Peace (gone wild),

Making Art From The Public Domain
I submitted the prompt for this morning’s DS106 Daily Create, about exploring a visual search engine of Public Domain artwork.

Music Themes In Morning

A Room Becomes A Turntable
For today’s Daily Create, the prompt was to “remix your world” using an image.

And of course, a turntable requires some scratching. Peace (and sound), […] -
Four Poems: Moth, Silence, Flower, Flood

Living In A Tilted World: A Fake Song From A Fake Band
This morning’s prompt at DS106 Daily Create had to do with using an old Public Domain image of a bunch of men standing on the deck of an old, tilting house, and to imagine them as a band releasing a song. I used Canva to design their “single” track, which I called Living In A […] -

via GIPHY This morning’s DS106 Daily Create prompt (one I guess I originally submitted way back when?) was to find the background code of a website and use it for art.

Daily Create: Coloring
The prompt for this morning’s Daily Create via DS106 was to use Scrap-Coloring to color an image or file. I’ve used the site before and it’s easy to get lost in it, particularly if the image has a lot of little details. I chose the cover design of my album of sound sketches from last […] -
