I have found myself in the wings of #clmooc over the past few days.
Last year, I spent much time drawing with Paper by 53
I can't remember how that happened.
#CLMOOC community opens doors.
It catalysed an escape into one of my favorite past times.
That led into visual mashups.
I gathered stuff together here:
This year, like the year before, I am hanging out in the margins.
I know you're busy making stuff, tweeting at a rate of knots.
I am not pushing it.
Stuff clicks.
I love this type of moment.
I am a bit tired at the end of a very busy year.
I chill out.
I am getting that urge to play with music apps again.
Why????
I am drawn to doodle not so much with images but with sounds, beats, spoken words, sound effects.
I gave up playing music early.
I felt I was playing for others...
There were so many silent years.
I am beginning to miss listening.
There are so many unexplored avenues.
Terry Elliott made a brilliant sound companion to a spoken voice piece which featured in Made in Entropy.
You can listen to it here:
I love how he chucks another log on the fire to stoke up creative dialogue.
Here I am tapping away on a smartphone, while the others sleep, listening to a clock tick.
I open up the laptop to do a couple of embeds and tidy up the formatting.
I wonder if the video has uploaded yet?

UNINTRO.
What object am I?
I am ajar
36% processing...
I am impatient.

I sleep-engaged in a #clmooc Twitter chat.

Finalizing video on Youtube.
I need to sleep.
Being ajar is a pretty damend good object.
ReplyDeleteAlso, love the layers of this project/conversations.
Ajar is not an object. I am not open or closed. I write not to be understood :-)

ReplyDeleteLast year my cello split apart in this desert air....I miss it so much.
How did you know it was a cello I played?
DeleteIts been fun, but I am weary. The other day in the week one twitter chat I was told that using the word "blindspot" was disrespectful to visually impaired folk. Sigh. I got a response ready, but not sure that game is worth the candle. Your game, however, is worth playing. Keep on!
ReplyDeleteSigh too. No those games are never worth the candle. I keep playing when and where the urge takes me. Enjoy company :-)
