    The Bird who Shouldn’t Fly The Untimely Demise As the wind hugs his body and the gravity pulling him poorly resembles the hug he always wanted everything floods back. The first time he realized it was a lie, his first encounter wit...

    Jim Richardson

    by
    Today I tried to pick just a few of Jim Richardson’s photographs which I liked the best. It wasn’t easy to narrow down my choices, but I feel these each exemplify different compositional techniques. Each of these is taken from the Small World Gallery website and is linked in the caption. This photo is allContinue reading "Jim Richardson"

    On A Clear Day… in the Land of Ooo

    by
    For this ds106 visual assignment, I decided to use Bob Ross’ On A Clear Day, which I also use on the homepage of this site. Here you can see the entire painting however, whereas you only have the skyline on my homepage. The prompt for this assignment is to add some characters to one ofContinue reading "On A Clear Day… in the Land of Ooo"

    The Reincarnation of Photography

    by
    After reading Stuart Jeffries’ article in The Guardian, I’m left slightly divided. When I was in high school, there was literally no cooler aspiration than becoming a photographer. We didn’t have camera phones yet, decent camera phones yet and I don’t think any of us really expected them to evolve much beyond the grainy imagesContinue reading "The Reincarnation of Photography"

    Assignment Bank – Writing

    by
    I am taking this weeks assignment bank tasks personal. We are supposed to choose 8 stars worth of assignments in the writing section. I’m taking this as a personal attack ( winking face ;)) because I admitted in last weeks summary that I really dislike writing. Now obviously, I know these have nothing to do […]

    Daily Create – Week Three

    by
    This week we had 3 daily creates to do. I did, a Bob Ross narrated Godzilla painting, tweet something incorrect and. For this weeks daily creates, I actually didn’t have to use any other apps besides Twitter and Google for a picture. Just like last week, I replied my tweets to ds106dc.

    Week 3 Summary

    by
    This week we focused on the storytelling side of digital media for our main projects, and kept things spicy with some more Daily Creates throughout the week. Watching Kurt Vonnegut define a story’s shape was both entertaining and enlightening. I doubt I’ve ever thought of a story in graph form before, but rather than minimizingContinue reading "Week 3 Summary"

    Week 2 Summary

    by
    What a week! From tips on writing a fluid, engaging blog post (am I doing it yet?) to animated GIFs, video mashups, and exploring some more into how copyright law is both frustrating and a teensy bit incomprehensible. To start, I read some advice on how to view the creative process. I feel that authorContinue reading "Week 2 Summary"

    Copyright

    by
    After reading the article Photographer Files $1 Billion Suit Against Getty for Licensing Her Public Domain Image, I learned about the struggles photographers might face relating to their creative property. Once an image is taken, the photographer instantly has copyright ownership of it. The photographer Carol Highsmith shares her work with the public domain. ThisContinue reading "Copyright"
