DS106 Color Walk Time Lines

Okay, so I’m not even going to pretend like I know how to work that “timeline JS Knightlab” excel spreadsheet thing. It’s not like I’m too lazy to figure it out, but I just don’t have the time to mess around with it. So, here is my own timeline:

I went for a lovely little walk with my little sister and she kindly chose the color purple:

We then walked down the drive way and into a neighbors garden, where we saw a few cool flowers which we couldn’t identify because, well, she’s 7, and I don’t know the first thing about flowers:

We then snuck into a grumpy old ladies yard because we thought we saw something purple, and we did: a couple chairs!

and finally, a fish flag, at the back entrance to our yard:

This DS106 assignment was a great way for me to hangout with my little sister, thank you! we didn’t learn much, but purple is kinda cool.. ds106assignment

DS106 Demotivate Yourself

Lemon Mayo

If you read the “About Me” section on my blog, you’d know that I made a joke about self-deprecation. Making jokes about it aides me to overcome it. It’s something an old therapist of mine suggested. Belittling the idea of self-deprecation is strengthening the fact that you don’t need to do it. As many of you know, doing something to the best of your ability is something that should be rewarded with both positivity and self-confidence. However, If you self-deprecate you allow yourself to diminish your accomplishments and take that feeling of achievement away. I’m sure I could have had a much better idea for this DS106 assignment, but whats the point in doing something if you don’t feel like you could have done better afterwords, am I right? ds106assignment

I love to LOOK at art. However, I myself am not very artistically inclined. I drew a few of my tattoos but that’s because I had ample motivation for both creation and perfection due to the fact that it was going to be on my body forever. This is actually my first attempt, and I was going to add a bunch of shading but I decided to go for the minimalist vibe, eat your heart out Donald Judd. I like to watch dumb TV shows like Bojack Horseman and Family Guy when I’m either bored or can’t sleep, so I guess that is where the subconscious motivation for a weird looking cartoon foot came from. ds106dc

At first I was trying to mash some crazy stuff like Enter Sandman by Metallica with the Winnie The Pooh Soundtrack. However, that became a headache really fast. So, I settled on something that has given me great pleasure for most of my life: Classical Music and the Movie Platoon. I mixed the two songs not expecting very much, and it didn’t turn out overwhelmingly fantastic, but it was the first time I’d ever mixed two songs together and I wasn’t trying to make a day of it. The positive outcomes of this mix were: It didn’t give me a headache, It marked my last assignment for the first week of this class, and it motivated me to put on Platoon. The negative outcomes of this mix was: Its not very good, haha. Anyway, onward we go! ds106dc
