NanoTales – 6 Words Make A Story

Thursday, March 8th, 2007

"The world of two. Now one" – Natalie Shell More in storyworld – above is my first play with nanotales – 6 line stories and so forth. Certainly it isn’t Hemingway‘s: "Baby Shoes. For Sale. Never Worn"   But it is fun to practice and I thought it was a good entry into this article on [...]

Co-Creativity Power

“The power of co-creativity – where two or more are gathered the future is created” And it is more fun. (You might want to read this once you get started)

Look Up

Saturday, June 10th, 2006

"Ned was the only one who thought to look up…" One of the fabulous collection by Sloane Tannen, in a fun book I got a few years ago "Bitter with Baggage Seeks Same". I was actually trying to find the image in the book that had an adorable edler chicken in a wheelchair, with presumably, his [...]

Time to be frightened by a ‘hat’ – A Revist

Monday, April 24th, 2006

" "Does this frighten you?" asked Antoine de Saint-Exupery in The Little Prince in 1945. "Does this frighten you?" I ask in 2005. Certainly it frightens me. But it frightens me more if it doesn’t frighten you! Because the image is not of a ‘hat’. It is a boa constrictor digesting an elephant. [Hint: If [...]

Bronx Blogging Project

Thursday, April 20th, 2006

This great project works at the intersections of immigration, youth, community and technology/social media I love when people take things and combine them in wonderful ways, especially when they elevate communities and engage difficult conversations in a positive way! Well done to Josh Levy and everyone involved in the Bronx Blogging Project. I also like that this project is a [...]

Things I Know For Sure

Sunday, April 9th, 2006

What things do you know for sure? I transcribed below’s list from a wall at Andrea Zittel‘s Critical Space exhibition in NYC - at the Chelsea Museum. It resonated with a lot of things I know (to varying degrees of surity) and definately mirrors things I am known to say…but with far greater clarity! These Things I Know for Sure: "1. It is [...]

Visual Complexity

Thursday, March 16th, 2006

Such a yummy site: full of cool maps, visually representing a number of complex things, simply. For example: This example is "Walrus - an interactive visualization tool that allows the analyst to view massive graphs from any position. The graph is projected inside a 3D sphere using a special kind of space based hyperbolic geometry. This is a non-Euclidean space…" [...]
