ds106.Design Assignment.Postcards from Magical Places – A Minecraft Island Camp
Sunday, June 17th, 2012I enjoy this island camp which is similar, in many ways, to my island home. I send a postcard to an artist friend who is presently working in Mexico. This is my postcard to Amelia White.
Picture side of postcard
Written side of postcard
This assignment challenged me but was fun because I used skills with with I am familiar along with exciting, new techniques. First, after learning about Minecraft, I copied the Minecraft environment from the site. I determined my desired postcard size. Then, I made the written side of my postcard on paper, ruling it and using two found stamps. I created a message to my fictitious friend and wrote the message in contrasting ink. I photoshopped a bit. Then, I scanned the written side and matched the sizes in my blog.
Please let me know what you think.

GQ’s Newest Man of the Year Abides
Friday, June 15th, 2012
It’s bad form, I know, but I can’t stop doing my own awesome assignment for Animating Magazine Covers. Although I blame this one on Paul Bond, whose animated cover of Parenting featuring a heart-to-heart between Jack and Danny Torrance inspired me to go back to this animated GIF by IWDRM and but The Dude on the cover of GQ. I mean let’s face it, he deserves it, man.
What I love about this take on that assignment is it starts to use pre-exisiting GIFs to culture jam some of the pre-conceived ideas and expectations of a particular magazine’s agenda. And given how many magazines there are, there could potentially be an endless supply of inspiration. I guess the tabloids are next
