Here are a few morning art projects from the DS106 Daily Create prompts. Each day is a new invitation to make or create or play. It’s a nice way to start the day.
Peace (and fun),
Kevin
For World Poetry Day, the daily prompt at DS106 Daily Create was to explore poetry of endangered languages. I went black-out with mine, using a collection and some text from the editor. A simple idea: collect poems in endangered languages Help document how poetry exists The conversations and encounters with poets from all over the […]
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 […]
Today’s DS106 Daily Create by Sarah is to make a stamp for the Daily Create. I found an online tool to do that, and used an image of art supplies and the Daily Create lettering. The Make A Stamp activity reminded me of a song some of us collaborated on for the CLMOOC Postcard Project […]
Today’s prompt for the DS106 Daily Create, by Sarah, is to use Austin Kleon’s idea for making a Gratitude Zine through art. I created a front page of a zine, and posted it via Mastodon, where I share my Daily Create responses every morning, but I am grateful, too, if you have arrived here at […]
This was my response to the DS106 Daily Create prompt yesterday, about naming that time between sleep and wakefulness. I often wake with snippets of song lyrics in my mind. (I had submitted the prompt after reading an interest post of sharing by someo...
It is fantastic to be back in New Zealand for the summer and look at the blue skies during the day and some spectacular skies at night; there is also another kind of blue that is colouring the landscape here and it is exciting to welcome some pertinent...
This morning’s Daily Create was to listen to the radio, and grab some lyrics, and then make a poem. I used an online radio streaming site, bounced around, and grabbed some words.
Peace (and sound),

Oy. I completely missed the fifth and final remix for my Remix-it Monday that I started a month or so ago on a whim, to see if I could remix one single piece of art from the DS106 files every week, for five weeks. I was right on track for weeks one through four. Then, […]
My neighbor, Greg, and I have been practicing my Gift of Peace for guitar and bass, and this shot of the tree, with the guitar and music stand, seemed quite lovely. I used it this morning for a Daily Create.
Peace (and Song),

I’m doing a five-week, every-Monday remix of a piece of art from the earlier days of DS106. (Read more about what I am up to here). This is week four. So one more week to go. It’s unusual for me to stay with something like over many weeks time. I am usually a move-quick and […]
I’m doing a five-week, every-Monday (unless I space out and forget to get it done) remix of a piece of art from the earlier days of DS106. (Read more about what I am up to here). This is week three. For this week’s remix, I took the text of the image about remix, and used […]
The following list was adapted from Clayton R. Wright’s list. Professional Development Opportunities in Educational Technology and Education JANUARY 2024 January 3-6, 2024 Hawaii International Conference on Education, 22nd annual. (1,150+ attende...
I’m doing a five-week, every-Monday (unless I space out and forget) remix of a piece of art from the earlier days of DS106. (Read more about what I am up to here). For this week’s remix, I took the text from the original image as a visual image, then ran it through a series of […]
Calls are open to submit proposals and to register for the Teaching for Learning (T4L) conference, which will be held in Rexburg, ID, February 28-March 1. The conference theme is “high-quality learning experiences designed to be more effective an...
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...
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. […]

It was such a memorable evening of applying the concepts of Maths and Computational Thinking to help cognitively engage the teachers. The students were eager to make a buggy by themselves using simple wheels, chart paper and straws; both students and&#...
Whatever the web is becoming or devolving or transmorgiphing to, DS106 still goes on, in some fashion, especially with the Daily Create. And look out, the machinations are at work to oblivate it into perhaps something new? A hallmark of DS106 always was not just spitting out things created (“just type a prompt in a […]
A few months back, I saw a reference to a short writing prompt called a Flashku, which had me interested. I found out more — it’s short flash prose, inspired by an image and borrowing words from another text — and this morning, the DS106 Daily Create shared out the Flashku prompt. See mine above […]
The Daily Create prompt the other day – by my friend Karen – suggested a revamping of the Pledge of Allegiance recited in schools but I went in another direction.
Peace (from the nothing),
Kevin
As the world watched with bated breath, the lander softly land on the Moon, and India and the world broke into applause at 6:04 pm IST on the 23rd of August 2023. Once more we were looking to the heavens and the South Pole of the moon for the need of w...

India, in March prepares for spring by stepping into a riot of colours and I happened to time it right as I arrived in Kolkata and finally made my way to Uttarakhand. There was also an air of celebration as the G20 presidency saw India step into 2023 w...
