Talky Tina’s Got Soul- Week 3-4-5 #DS106 Reflections

Since joining the ds106 cult, I have learned many lessons, above all how important it is to create something everyday. It’s not like I didn’t know this, but I had never truly incorporated this philosophy in my life. Too often, we know certain truths in life, but we just don’t apply them in our own.

“I went to the woods because I wished to photoblitz deliberately!”

I am guilt ridden, although we’ve been told not to feel guilty if we fall behind in ds106. I have yet to summarize and reflect on weeks 3 and 4, but it’s all in my head just waiting for some time to sit down and either write or record what I learned and accomplished during those weeks.

i.am.ary. and i.am. ds106!

DS106 has been chosen as a top innovator in the open education movement so for Saturday’s daily create, the ds106 cult faced the task of creating a short video to give audiences at the Reclaim Open Learning Symposium on September 27th a sense of who or what the cult people of ds106 are all about.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
McMurphy (Personal Cyber-infrastructure) VS.
Nurse Ratchet (Public Ed Infrastructure)
Week 2 in #ds106 was tough because life got in the way, but nevertheless I learned how to make GIFs using some of my favorite movie scenes, and I managed to learn so much from Gardner Campbell through the assigned videos and article.

#ds106 “Disruptive Wonder” for Growth- Week One in Retrospect

Headless #ds106 has, as artist and designer Kelli Anderson puts it, “opened a humble backdoor into understanding a reality that is infinitely surprising.” In one week, Headless #ds106 Bootcamp has challenged me to create daily, take risks, find my visual voice and digital identity, and fearlessly build my personal cyberinfrastructure so I can share my story with those who care to hear it.

Shoes, Anniversaries, and Wonder Woman!

So, yesterday was Giulia’s birthday in ds106 world.

We also can’t forget it’s the last day of the first week for #ds106 new recruits!

My Cute, Cuddly, Crayola Memoir

When I was five, my grandfather bought me one of those Crayola crayon boxes with the built in sharpener on the back. One little girl in my class was jealous, and she plotted revenge and set me up! I had four aquamarines, lots of hot magentas; lemon yellows in triplicates, a pair of midnight blues, and possibly various peaches, pinks and tans for coloring human faces on the coloring dittos used to sedate us.

“Frainge Days Indeed!”

Last night after I got tattooed, I wrote my first post for #ds106 and was thrilled to find my first comment was from Alan Levine, who is really not our teacher …no one heads the course…but there are some very present masterminds behind all of this experimental DIY learning!
