    I found the assignment at this link here: http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/word/ Thanks Rabia Aman for a cool, simplistic assignment! I love playing around with words, and fonts. Simple things such as typefaces can say so much about something. This is what this assignment captures so beautifully, without the need for flashy pictures, or colors, animations, and so on. ...

    There are the paths of links that maketh up the web and then the paths of experience that make up another web. Sometimes it just gets tangled up in a ball of serendipity that really is not all that important in the long run, yet still tickles me. Today’s ds106 Daily Create was contributed by one of my #ds106 students: #ds106 #dailycreate by @lyndseylu112 eXtreme edit.

The original photo was one I took on the way here, in north central New ...

    This week the inimitable Team RadTASTIC (which everyone spells differently depending on the day, making it even more RAD and TASTIC) met in the DuPont hall recording studio last week to discuss how we were going to pull together our rather ambitious zombie radio drama. Daniel got us set up in studio and hooked up ...

    Team RadTASTIC’s radio show poster! Obviously all is not well wherever this DJ is broadcasting from… It’s the zombie apocalypse, and this is the last radio station you’re bound to pick up for a long, long while. With that as the theme of our team’s radio drama, I immediately thought of creating an in-context poster ...

    Yeah. It’s pretty self-explanatory. The assignment to create a warning sign was by far the easiest design assignment from this week, but I also learned a surprising amount getting it done. Creating the sign was easy enough: I found a simple Hard Hat Area sign, drew over the original text with white and red, respectively, ...
