For #tdc1852 I would create a fitbit style device that would instantly count the calories of everything that you ate. @ds106dc — Michael Ryan (@mjryanonline) February 3, 2017

This week’s mission included several training exercises. First, I read an article about fellow spies and secret agents . Out of all of the shows, Burn Notice stuck out to me. I watched the show a few years ago, but the protagonist’s cheeky personality wore on me pretty quickly. As I read through some of […]

Agent Zephyr a.k.a. Igtherion is an unconventional spy who actually poses as a milk man (or other food industry persons) to infiltrate locations and remove targets with little issue. His greatest strength lies in how unassuming he appears, as people do...

Today’s Daily Create was to create a FitBit-style device that measures something that can’t normally be measured with that type of device. My creation was a watch that shows you where you are in relation to the ChalkZone world from the tv show ChalkZone. @ds106dc Check out this sick watch that shows you where you […]

When creating a line to describe Spy Kids I suppose it would start to rise as the children discover that their parents are spys. However there starts to be a fall when the children discover that their parents have been kidnapped. The tensions rise again as the children are tasked with rescuing their parents, with periodic dips as they doubt their abilities in the face of their parents’ failure. Joys begin to rise once more when the children successfully rescue their parents and prove their abilities.

The greatest common factor when it comes to the spy genre is the element of mystery, in my opinion. By mystery I don’t quite mean the fact that spys are supposed to be mysterious to get their job done, but rather how much is left as a mystery to the consumer of the media. The viewer is given the spy’s mission and the mystery begins with how they are going to complete it and what tools will get the job done. Will the spy’s mission go through flawlessly, or will they (inevitably) be captured? If they are captured how will

Neil Roberts is a newly discovered operative and is willing to come forward and talk about his upbringing and some of his experiences as an agent. Here is the only known photo of him during his time as an agent. Roberts was a cadet at the US Naval Academy and from there went on to …

This week was another week of fun in the agency. We are doing a lot of fun assignments and keep doing new and creative things. I like that I learn something new with each assignment. My favorite assignment this week has definitely been the fortune cookie assignment. I loved just getting creative with each assignment …

Fortune Cookie:  “Romance is likely; strike up a conversation”   Today, for lunch, I had sushi with my friend Nancy Drew. When I opened my fortune cookie it said “Romance is likely; strike up a conversation”. This was interesting seeing how I had a date with James Bond later tonight. After my long day in …

Week three is done! I feel like these few weeks are going pretty fast. However this week was different meaning it was all about writing! When I found out it was writing week I was excited and not at the same time, excited because I had input in this week for assignments by suggesting the […]

Have you ever looked at a spy in the face? Like really looked at them? Well, I have. I look at myself in the mirror every day. I see brown hair, brown eyes, a tiny nose, one eyebrow slightly thicker than the other and bags under my eyes. I see myself like a normal girl, … Continue reading "A Spy’s Face"

For this assignment, we were supposed to take a poem and make a parody of it. I decided to do Green Eggs and Ham. While it technically isn’t a poem, it rhymes so whatever. The original Green Eggs and Ham can be found here and now onto my parody..Green Grass and Cann. Green Grass and Cann … Continue reading "Green Grass and Cann"

I remember when I was a kid I used to watch spy kids all the time. Spy kids is where two kids, brother and sister, learn that their parents were spies after the parents were kidnapped. The story follows Carmen and Juni who decide to become spies themselves to rescue their family from the evil […]

Love comes quickly, whatever you do There were once two spies, a man and a woman. The man’s job was to track the woman and the woman’s job was to track the man. They were both the best spies in their countries, so naturally the enemy countries would want them gone. The man one day ... Read more

Out of the movies we were given to watch, I chose Spy Kids. I love that movie and I haven’t seen it in a very long time so I figured I should watch it. Plus, how cool is it that we get to watch an entertaining movie for a class?!?! Anyways, basically Spy Kids is ... Read more

The first thing I did while out in the…field…is well, I watched a movie. yes, I’m sorry! I was supposed to do be, you know, infiltrating my nemesis’s headquarters…but I promise I was doing research!

Took on a Haiku Recipe assignment worth 2 stars. I felt pretty good about this one because I decided to go very simple but stick to the shortness and syllabus of an actual traditional Haiku. I chose the first comfort food I could think of that would also lend itself to a short recipe. So […]

This time I took on the Monologue of a Household Tool assignment which is worth 4 1/2 stars. I tried to make it ambiguous so you have to guess what household object I am describing. Monologue An average day starts at the start of everyday for me. Every morning I brighten up when people tell […]

My take on the Your Adventure Is Over two star assignment, with an example of the wrong choice for a choose your own adventure book. You tuck yourself under the antique desk in the corner of the room trying to make yourself as small as possible. But it does not work out quiet as you […]

When I created my character I wanted to play into the trope of semi-normal people falling into or being coerced into spy role. With those kinds of characters I have noticed they always seem to fall into two categories the completely goofily under qualified new spy or the somehow has all the right qualities coincidently […]

Today’s Daily Create had us go to this site and take the seventh randomly generated Bond film title and write a teaser for it. My randomly generated title was “ThunderSpy.” The name reminded me of Thunder Kiss ’65 by White Zombie (not my favorite song, but it did inspire some of my sickest dance moves). Anyway, my whole […]

Greetings. My “name” is Fawn, or I should say my code name is Fawn however I find codenames mostly superfluous. I understand keeping ones identity a secret to protect against constant threat, however I also believe anyone with anything to loose should not consider a career in espionage. I would not categorize myself as a spy […]

This was a very exciting week in the ds106 community. I got to watch some very great stories that take different shapes according to Kurt Vonnegut. I watched Get Smart, because I am a fan of the movie so I thought it would be neat to watch the television show that it is based off …
