I apologize… but this video just begs for a gif to be made at almost every change of frame. SOOO I oblidged…again… I followed the advice of the illustrious Jim Groom to make this animated magazine cover. For those of you too lazy to c...
May I present my humble attempt at a radio header. This is slightly different than a poster. It’s actually a little closer to a bumper sticker, only it’s meant for a webpage header. I used a “template” in the adobe illustrator p...
I choose to do this in my house. The reason, you ask? It’s simple really… Anywhere else just seems impractical at this hour! (I mean… err… for the challenge of it!) As someone who does not pride themselves in photography I have ...
I choose these photo’s because I think they are the best of my pictures. So of them are balanced well, while others have a good contrast of colors. Still others I just like because I’m vain and they have me in them. For those of you who wan...
So this bumper was pretty easy to create. I mashed up myself saying “ds106 radio”, “Clubbed to Death” by Rob Dougan, and some crazy radio static, just not exactly in that order. The beauty of audacity is that you can layer these...
What inspires me? Well that’s simple. Survival. Also food, who doesn’t love a great sammich? But when tasked with visiting ds106 inspire site my attention was immediately drawn to the zombie apocalypse radio teaser. When the walking dead se...
In my never ending quest to be lazy I took to teh googles to find a picture of “The Graduate” story structure. Much to my dismay (but to the fortune of my own knowledge) I met no victory. I did however find this great break down and critiqu...
What is story telling? Storytelling, at it’s heart, is an ancient art form that has evolved from a method of communication to include storytelling for entertainment value as well. I see storytelling as a way to bond society together while also se...
Here are this week’s Daily Creates! 1. Take a photo of food being served or eaten in a n unconventional way. tdc36 None 2. Take a photograph of a toy in action. tdc37 3. Take a photo of an object that represents how old you feel. tdc38 Alternate:...
This assignment hit me in the head, in much the same way that a brick falling would, on the way back to my apartment after class tonight. For some odd reason my mind wandered to the posters I had seen around the Quarter Deck at my last command; they we...
Here are this week’s Daily Create’s. 1. Make a photo of something upside down that is never seen that way. tdc29 2. Share an image of a place that you lose things in your house. tdc030 3. Create a photograph that represents the happiest of ...
Gotta love those Blue Birds. They provide so many opportunities for amazing photography. I used picnik and photoshop for this assignment. Initially I uploaded the picture into photoshop and enhanced the blue-ness (is that a word?) of the blue bird. I t...
This was… painfully fun. Please, if you have a weak heart, avert your eyes. Since I am a complete photoshop noob, this is a very low quality gif. I hope to clean it up soon, but for now this will have to provoke a few chuckles. EDIT: So since I h...
This particular assignment was a lot of fun. I used picnik to do the effects. Initially I had just added the dot to dot effect, but then wondered what it would look like if I just used this effect on myself. I really like that look but felt like it was...
competition, a photo by dzim1 on Flickr. I was never thinking more clearly than on the water in a crew shell. Most memorable. Happiest… debatable, but definitely memorable.
A recent lab of mine was to demonstrate my knowledge of Linked Lists/Queue data structures. My code was as follows, written in java: /**@author Daniel Zimmerman * */ public class Queue extends List{ List queueList; //default constructor public void Que...
For those of you who haven’t seen Gardner Campbell’s video, its right here. His essay is here. I want to first cover his “No More Digital Facelifts” video. This really struck home with me, because I saw these “digital face...
This was actually a lot of fun. I found this brand spanking new theme that I hadn’t found before. It is much more simple and lets the reader focus on what the posts/pictures/videos say, without having all the sidebar crap in your face. You can hi...
So this is my remake of our first assignment. I figure it fits because, in all actuality, I did have to re-setup after our hacking experience. So the process was interesting. I spent the last week emailing back and forth with Zach from CIC. That...
Paul, Sean, and myself at the Giants @ Eagles game on September 25. A Daily Create Rowing the Rappahannock and a Daily Create. Author Kenny Allwine More to come!
HOLY LARGE UPDATE BATMAN! Here are all the daily create’s I have done since the beginning of class. Yes, you read that right. All of them. Let’s get started. Number 1: Thirty Second News Broadcast. Collabroative effort with Paul Waltsak #tdc12 Number 2: Compose a photograph that contains a “finished product” and at least ...
So I know what you are thinking, SURELY Daniel won’t be mean to his awesome room mate of 3 years. He definitely will not throw any kind of object at him, ever… Guess again… Also, you all should check out his blog. This dude is rocking this personal website thing; great job buddy! ...
