August 28, 2021. After 666 days, the RedBlacks are back and were were there in our new (and first-time) season tickets seats. The game wasn't the best, but it was still fun. We tried the new 'Very Vegan Tacos', which were a complete fail (the problem w...
Bob Ross never fails to bring a calming effect to his work. He paints a small cabin in the depths of winter. Bob states that he should bring a coat because it can be so cold inside his paintings. However, this episode made me feel nothing but warmth. His commentary and instructions are motivating andContinue reading "Warm Winter Day (Season 8 EpisodeĀ 3)"

by Thomas Pulsifer When I signed up for this class, I definitely wasnāt expecting to be assigned a viewing of Bob Ross. But donāt get me wrong, Iām not complaining! Iām practically always watching Bob Ross in my free time (Though I have yet to actually follow along with a canvas of my own.) AsContinue reading "Bob Ross and the Legend of the SecludedĀ Lake"

But, I believe

August 27, 2021. This is the fan on the ceiling of my bedroom. We don't really need a fan, since the house is air conditioned, but nonetheless, it is there. Today was an indoor day, which felt weird, but allowed my various bites, cuts and bruises to he...

This week has taught me that I have no idea what goes into creating a website, not that I thought I knew before. Just creating the website was easy enough but then it came time to link it to a domain and from there it went all downhill. I donāt know if the buttons IāmContinue reading "Weekly Summary"
Ross is very calm and it seems like his motto/view is to to jump right in with no hesitation and that nothing is a mistake which I think in a way is right. Nothing is a mistake, only a learning period. āJust let it go. I donāt know exactly where weāre going with this, andContinue reading "The Joy ofĀ ds106"
Personally I struggled with the set up of everything this week. It certainly didnāt help that I procrastinated on setting this class up. Once I got familiar with the platform, posting blogs became much easier. I enjoyed setting up all my social medias today and distinguishing what I wanted to introduce to the class. Theā¦ Continue reading Week One Summary

āAny way you can get the effect you want is the right wayā I really liked this quote. I thought it spoke alot towards his style of painting.

Hello and welcome, my name is Owen Reilly. I will be using this domain to post required blogs for DS106! I am currently a sophomore biology major taking this course to not only fulfill a gen ed. but to further my digital knowledge.
This week, I learned how to do many new things in digital media that I had not done before. I was able to learn how to set up a blog for the first time, and learn how to use WordPress. At first, I was a little nervous having never used WordPress before, but the supporting [ā¦]
I initially added this course to fulfill the Digital Intensive Gen Ed requirement, but now I am excited about what I will be learning and gaining from taking this class. I was not expecting to take this kind of class, as I did not have much experience with producing digital media before this week. Already, [ā¦]

To be completely honest, this week's assignments were challenging. I was required to utilize numerous platforms, some of which I was familiar and others that were completely new to me. I am by nature fairly reserved and fond of my privacy. While ...
Being as it was the first week of classes, it is safe to say my week was pretty hectic! However, I was fortunate enough to already have a domain set up to add my Digital Storytelling blog posts to! I was really excited learning we would be using our b...

If the assignments this week are any indication, this course will help me increase my level of engagement and understanding of numerous internet/digital platforms. By the end of this course, I hope to be able to move fluidly between them improvin...
