Just a short little podcast where Scott goes over the syllabus, thanks Doc Groom, and tells us to audio blog.

This is just a short introductory audio sample. No music. Just a little bit of Scott Lo letting us know who he is and what he will be helping us with throughout the semester. He plans to help us make … Continue reading →

This video of Campbell is just a bit sermon-like, not that this is a bad thing, even down to the cadence. Sometimes the world needs a little preaching. He talks of the future of technology in terms of how we … Continue reading →

Imitate some weather Using only your voice and things within arm’s reach of your computer, imitate some kind of weather. It doesn’t have to be long, but make it sound as real as possible. I got this idea from a lesson I did about weather with a second grade class. Everyone in the class had ...

I’m currently listening to ds106 radio, the scottlo-down or scottlo-way or something. It’s my first listen to this radio show and I’m going to live blog it (full disclosure: I used to be the music director for WMWC: umw radio). … Continue reading →

Listen to the scottlo cast here Sounds like a weird play. Reminds of that Stephen King book/movie The Fog. You are right, most people (including me) know nothing of pop culture from 70 to 80 years ago. I am not … Continue reading →

  I took this picture at Kings College in London.

This is my ‘get to know you’ photo. I would say I spend too many hours in this exact state: tired, reading glasses on, headphones, pajamas, and in a room surrounded by books I don’t have the time to read.

A must for all of you reading this blog right now! You need to watch “The Twilight Zone: Eye of the Beholder”!! This was an amazing episode!! So stop what you are doing and go watch this! The twist in this story is nowhere to be seen!  It caught me off guard completely! So before ...

  This is most definitely the hardest assignment I’ve done yet. I guess I’m just not a very good “mixer” but I’ve seriously started working on this last night. I used Audacity, and had a lot of trouble finding a … Continue reading →

So, I decided to base another one of my assignments on a Twilight Zone episode. I again based it on, The Midnight Sun, but only because it was really appropriate for the assignment, in my opinion.  I promise I’ll vary … Continue reading →

When I first saw the Week 1 page for ds106, I was intrigued  but also fearful of the challenges and expectations of this course. I have my associates in IT, but I  have never, thus far, used design software, such … Continue reading →

My Daily Create. I had problems reaching the website last night so I was forced to post it today after I woke up. It’s also my first audio response. ScottLo has been encouraging us to do one, and this seemed like the perfect assignment for it. This was inspired by John Johnson’s tdc499.     ...
