    Making Art From The Public Domain

    by
    I submitted the prompt for this morning’s DS106 Daily Create, about exploring a visual search engine of Public Domain artwork. I created the art image above, which I like for its textural oddness, by first searching for “trombone” (believe it or not) in the search site (called Public Domain), and discovering a strange image of […]

    Arte

    by
    June 25, 2024. This is some artwork on display here in Casselman. There's a whole slew of these painted mannequins as part of a community art project (you're supposed to vote for your favourite but I think picking a winner cheapens it). https://flic.k...

    Music Themes In Morning

    by
    It’s not unusual for me to use music as my theme for some morning creativity — either making it or using music to inspire writing or art. This morning was no different, with my morning poem (with prompt of “sunshine” off Mastodon) leading to a guitar haiku poem and the DS106 Daily Create (“complete this […]

    A Room Becomes A Turntable

    by
    For today’s Daily Create, the prompt was to “remix your world” using an image. I had a photo of an empty basement, where my band used to practice, and when I did a little tinkering in LunaPic, the room became a turntable (by accident). And of course, a turntable requires some scratching. Peace (and sound), […]

    Daily Create: Ten Clicks In

    by
    I submitted the idea for this morning’s Daily Create, using River to navigate through a series of artistic tiles and end on a page of art. I made a short video of my excursion with my ten clicks. I found it interesting and mesmerizing and rather...

    DS106: Remix Monday (Week 1)

    by
    After a DS106 Daily Create prompt yesterday (Sunday) about coming up with a new day of celebration based on Stir-Up Sunday, I decided that a Remix Monday sounded cool. Then, I thought, maybe I should try to do it — to remix a single piece of art, five different ways, over five weeks, every Monday. […]

    Absence of detail and the value of ambiguity in art and education

    by
    This post pulls together ideas about the value of ambiguity and space in art and education by drawing upon my diverse experiences as educator, artist, and musician. It wanders! In some ways, it is about creating room to wander. I hope you it connects with your own wanderings. Continue reading ?

    Transparency, turbulence, ambiguity and uncertainty in #activelearning

    by
    “One student’s safe uncertainty is another student’s chaotic nightmare.” (Orr & Shreeve, 2018) Based on research I conducted with others into student satisfaction of learning (Heaton et al., 2015), being clear with students about what is expected of them has … Continue reading ?

    Mapping my learning: visualising not just being visual

    by
    A few posts ago I thought through some ideas about using metaphorical maps as a way of navigating learning. I want to pursue this here to discover further intersections and connections, especially as we gear up for the collaborative inquiry … Continue reading ?
