      "Field" is a construct, a word that gives us fake leverage.  If we call it one thing so that we can manipulate it, the handle on a skillet, the hook for hanging a coat up, It is not one thing. It is a desperate many things that live within one thing.  It is fox, not the hedgehog. via GIPHY

      I suppose at the subatomic level there is more empty than not. At the neuronal level, all of the neurons are firing and wiring and firing and wiring. At a farmer's level, the ground level, he knows that there is no container to be empty.  There is only the turning of Gaia on a tilted axis and the flow of root and branch, leaf and rhizome in a sweet slow dance, a timelapsing dervish. via GIPHY

      Aftermath BY HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW When the summer fields are mown, When the birds are fledged and flown,       And the dry leaves strew the path; With the falling of the snow, With the cawing of the crow, Once again the fields we mow       And gather in the aftermath. Not the sweet, new grass with flowers Is this harvesting of ours;       Not the upland clover bloom; But the rowen mixed with weeds, Tangled tufts from marsh and meads, Where the poppy drops its seeds       In the silence and the gloom.

    "challenge students with quick creative challenges aimed at having students reflect on and create multimedia statements about themselves. The hope is that these kind of projects immediately introduce to the students a few critical ideas: They will use their devices to create, They will consider what is meaningful to them, They will share their work."

  • 2014 was a year of work. 2015 should be a year of fun. That's my resolution.

      Then you have to play without end or purpose in sight.  That is the infinite game.

      One my ideas was that we could start a 10 Creative Ideas Club using Hackpad.  Here is link to prototype: https://hackpad.com/The-10-Creative-Ideas-Club-lQtZ3D1hY7x

      Keep jabbing at the dog named Resistance that protects the Muse. Keep jabbing.

  • One of my desires as a teacher and learner is to obscure the artificial boundaries that exist between formal and informal learning, 'school' and 'real life'. Such distinctions between digital connection and analog, 'face to face' connections should also be blurred.

      I think one way to do this blurring is to observe and share more of your own life.  I am beginning a series of posts called "Petty Joys" that chronicle the 'small beer' of my life, stuff I love that doesn't rise to the level of epiphany.  I am blurring the lines so that the editor in my head doesn't send out a rejection letter.  My first petty joy is the peanut butter stirrer. Watch for it.
