    Daily Create: My Keychain What does your keychain say about you? Are you more reserved? Do you hold your memories/past accomplishments on your keychain? I think my keychain explains my simple, fast-pace life. As you read ‘about me,‘ I am … Continue reading

    The day we celebrate work!!

    by
    As Labor day approaches I always get excited about it’s festivities! I love barbecues and parades and the parties it brings with it. It has always been a big family celebration for me. But for some reason (and please don’t judge my not knowing) I have never really known what the true meaning of Labor ...

    Week One Summary

    by
    First weekly post, ready? So I originally picked this class because it satisfies the art requirement and there is NO WAY I’m cut out for Theatre class. That aside, I think that this class is going to get me more involved using my computer and connecting in social media…which are both awesome! Now that we’re through that intro, let’s start with the weekly media we had to watch. When I watched the first video with Robert Hughes, I was instantly returned to my freshman Art History class and it reminded me of videos we had to watch and write about. By the end of the video, I was like $#!%, … Continue reading

    My Keys

    by
    Here is my first daily create! It is an explanation of the keys on my keychain. I never thought about the story your keys can tell about yourself. I have my car key, which goes to my bright blue ford focus, my baby that I just finished paying off. Then I have a key to my dad’s house that I was born and raised in, moving to college was the first time I had ever not lived in that house. Then the key to, my best friend, Michelle’s house. It is actually her birthday today.. too bad she’s four hours away right now :/ and lastly I have a key ...

    Talking About Keys- An Opener

    by
    My keychain is not much different from the last time I did this assignment for the Daily Create The Daily Create for August 28, 2012 told us to make a video: Show us your keychain and tell us a story about the keys or things you have on it. Yes, i still have the scuffed up bike tool whose main function is the bottle opener (well worn). What is more significant now is that I am still carrying my house and mailbox keys from my home in Strawberry, Arizona, although I have not been there for weeks, and will not be there for maybe a long time. It was a short touching reminder of how much I love my little place in the mountains (and after doing this video, I put them away in a safe hiding place… hmm, where was that place?) Unlike many people in the videos for ...

    Dear Flickr

    by
    Dear flickr, We have been friends for so long, like since March 2004. I have shared with you over 27,000 photos, and stood up for you when other people were saying you were a has been. I still love you. But you are getting weird o senile and I am getting confused. Our ds106 students are correctly tagging photos for their Daily Create assignments. They are tagging correctly, but their photos are not showing up consistently. And now you are doing it to me. This photo is tagged tdc234 yet when I click my tag for it, it says: Yes this is not true, just look at http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/tdc234/, there are four other photos there (?) WTF? I am so confused, so I am mailing you a letter. Please do not let us down. Didn’t you hire that cool Google lady to help tidy things up? Why are you breaking down ...

    Weekly Summary- Week One

    by
    Week One, How shall I describe you?… Interesting. I originally signed up for this class because someone said it was different and if you were technology savvy it would be easy. I’m finding both to be true. The media we had to watch at the beginning of the week was very straight forward. The first video though was my least favorite of the two. I get easily distracted and while watching old videos like this one I tend to doze off. The second video however proved to be a favorite. This approach to where great ideas come from is a very thought provoking concept. The insanely good drawings also helped … Continue reading

    My First Post

    Weekly Media I thought that this week’s media made some pretty good points.  I really liked Robert Hughes’s point that every person’s ability to pass from feeling to meaning is different, and that “task” as he says goes on forever. … Continue reading

    OH WOW! My first week BootCamp Experience!

    by
    HELLO! Starting off my FIRST Weekly Summary, I am going to post all my links for all my “sites.” Just trying to cover all my bases: http://www.youtube.com/user/LyndseyLu112/videos https://twitter.com/LyndseyLu112 http://soundcloud.com/lyndseylu112 http://www.flickr.com/photos/lyndseylu112/ So, from the beginning it seemed as though this class just wasn’t the thing for me. The trouble started when I registered for two domains not just one. Luckily, Mr. Tim came to my rescue and sorted that out, but then my entire site had to be swept up and restarted because of errors. Finally, I was up and running able to install word-press and to start on my blog. At first I wasn’t really sure what to put on … Continue reading
