    Tock, Tick, The Daily Trick

    Most likely I mangled my attempt at wordplay in that title. Iā€™m writing again about my belief/obsession with small acts of daily creativity. I have no real research, no data to back my hypothesis, but I will make up something that applying Curlyā€™s Law to doing something small, new, micro challenging on a regular basis [ā€¦]

    I am marrying Tom Holland and you are invited.

    by
    Yes, that is right, I am getting married to Tom Hollandā€¦ in my dreams, and YOU are invited. I designed my invitation on Canva, but the story behind the information on it made this so fun to create. When thinking of wedding planning, I thought to start with the basicsā€“the color scheme. My favorite colorā€¦ Continue reading I am marrying Tom Holland and you are invited.

    Ballroom (design) Blitz!

    by
    Hey, friends! For my designblitz I just looked around my room and thought about the different aspects of design since I donā€™t leave my house and I donā€™t have anything really design oriented to find outside. I had a good time staring at the familiar objects in my room and figuring out what the purposesā€¦

    Who was the true hero?

    by

    I chose to do the assignment True Lies from the assignment bank. This assignment is meant to glorify the heroism of a character. I chose to do this as a ranking of characters in Lord of the Rings. The graphic below glorifies the character I feel was most heroic, and wellā€¦ slanders on my least [ā€¦]

    This is the assignment I am the most proud of so far for this semester. I know Iā€™ve probably made other things of better quality; however, the creativity I put behind this (and the story) makes it my favorite. Iā€™ve said it a million times and Iā€™ll say it againā€“I love to tell my storyā€¦ Continue reading Nathanā€™s Reeseā€™s Puffs

    Quote Gallery

    by

    This assignment required me to pick a movie quote and edit it over and image. I went through this one really quick, so I made multiple! I used the collage maker app on my phone (was having computer problems) and came up with these! The video of how I worked in the collage maker is [ā€¦]

    RMā€™s Design Thoughts

    When I started reading the original Brain Pickings post for this week, I quickly realized how easy it would be to fall down many different rabbit holes. Actually, the first time I was trying to read through it, I ended up on some article about Freud and his work. This was interesting to me (beingā€¦

    Design Reflection

    While reading ā€œA Kidā€™s Guide to Graphic Designā€ the following quote stuck with meā€¦ ā€œIt doesnā€™t occur to most people that everything is designed ā€” that every building and everything they touch in the world is designed,ā€ Bill Moggridge I know this was the first line of the article, but it made me think.

    by
    Everyone, gather ā€™round! Itā€™s time for you to hear the story of the legendary jukebox hero. This story was born before I began ds106, but when I saw the Audio Bank assignment ā€œCreate a story using musicā€, I knew the world deserved to hear the tale.

    Would you like some tea?

    by

    For my sound effect story, I made a cup of tea on a snowy day. Tea is one of my favorite hot drinks, and I drink it religiously! I downloaded sounds from the BBC sound effect site and layered them into audacity. It was very simple, but rather tedious as it involved a fair bit [ā€¦]
