Week 1: Intro to Composition

DMU Timestamp: August 24, 2016 00:30

"When I’m out viewing the world through my camera lens, I find myself thinking…about teaching, about life, about the world. My photos stimulate my thinking and my thinking sets me out in search of images." -- Kim

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 10:31AM) : Collaborating with Luke's intent. more

Trying to interrupt the vanishing point by putting in as nearly invisible a word as possible. But it is a call to breathe that I think inspired Luke’s post and picture. Just a guess on my part. I want the word to be like a rock or a fern, just part of the natural landscape. I probably need to lower the word a bit.

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:31AM) : I noticed the word as part of the environment ... a fluttering word ... Actually, the first time I saw the image with via your sharing and I didn't see your word at first. I was on my phone, and then, "Huh? What's that there?"

Aug 29

Luke Hokama Luke Hokama (Aug 29 2016 5:39PM) : Yeah, I liked the subtlety of that and placement at where the water is coming from.

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 10:33AM) : Luke is flowing downstream here more

His image is attached to him as intellectual property. I didn’t credit Luke on the image to the right. Conscious choice. Maybe illegal. Hope Luke is not litigious.

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:33AM) : As your attorney, I advise you to ...

Aug 29

Luke Hokama Luke Hokama (Aug 29 2016 5:39PM) : You are both going down, esp. since I know you're sitting on piles of money;-)

Color choice? 0

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 10:34AM) : Why? more

Why did Kevin use yellow here and in his last line. Visibility?

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:33AM) : Yes, visibility of font and trying to find some balance between the reader/viewer being able to read the poem and view the image. A meshmash. Sometimes, it doesn't work.

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 12:45PM) : Odd yes? more

It’s funny how many “decisions” are like this—almost pedestrian.

Aug 29

Luke Hokama Luke Hokama (Aug 29 2016 5:42PM) : Hmm, I thought it was make visual a tie between "I breathe" "you breathe"...a breathing sandwich that begins w/ you, end w/ me.

Aug 30

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 30 2016 7:39AM) : trees more

I really was focused on the two trees just before the vanishing point. I imagined the breath going into the vanishing point between the trees and then back out between trees, a perfect meditative picture. Of course, beautiful.

Vanishing Point 0

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 10:35AM) : See added docs below

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:39AM) : That's interesting -- I didn't know you could curate other media as part of the bigger curation/annotation here.

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 12:48PM) : Curation more

I really like the “course in a box” feel of this. We could each add more documents as we saw fit. LIke a digital accordian file?

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 3:35PM) : Can I add documents? I don't see that I, a visitor to your annotated world, can add documents alongside and with you. Am I missing a button?

Aug 26

Dan Doernberg Dan Doernberg (Aug 26 2016 5:17PM) : Hello Kevin! Saw this public doc from Terry so am checking it out and saw your question. [Edited] more

It depends how Terry configures the document (either at time of upload or later from Document Properties). The default is that only Document Owner can add stuff, but he/she can override that and let those invited to the document add stuff…. idea is to maybe have collaborative curation of current events, collections of resources and references, etc.

If the doc is configured for others to add things then there would be a small blue button in towards the bottom left saying something like “add to this document”.

Hope this helps… enjoy your weekends!

Aug 30

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 30 2016 7:40AM) : Yes more

I made it so that you can add docs. A collaborative lesson plan anyone?

This line ... 0

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:35AM) : This was actually the first line of the poem as I was writing, and then I moved back to your word as the start of the poem. I still like this phrase -- softly unfiltered currents -- for the peaceful theme of the image and word: breathe

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 12:49PM) : Like this line, too. more

I like how the words are layered over the image, embossing the image in a way. Very cool.

Choices 0

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:36AM) : I had the word "my" here -- my dreams -- and wrestled with that one word for some time. I removed it, thinking the "you" could be breathing in their own dreams, not "mine." But it still can be read both ways, I suppose

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 12:50PM) : Identity more

this is next level revising here. how much of me needs to be overtly in the poem? We made very different choices here that led dif places, dif riffs.

This rock 0

Aug 26

Kevin Hodgson Kevin Hodgson (Aug 26 2016 11:38AM) : I don't know what went into composition of image here ... but this rock keeps grabbing my eye, as if it is slowly moving towards the center of the stream. I keep thinking my eyes will follow the water flow but it doesn't ... it keeps an eye on the rock

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 12:52PM) : The vanishing point more

And my eyes kept going upstream into the vanishing point. Maybe I got salmon in my DNA and you got racoon or bear waiting for the salmon in yours.

Aug 26

Dan Doernberg Dan Doernberg (Aug 26 2016 5:23PM) : Ever hear the Neil Young song "Will to Love"? All about salmon DNA. I think it's amazing, very few friends share my opinion. [Edited] more

Beginning excerpt:

It has often been my dream
To live with one who wasn’t there
Like an ocean fish who swam upstream
Through nets, by hooks, and hungry bears.

When the water grew less deep
My fins were aching from the strain
I’m swimming in my sleep
I know I can’t go back again.

Aug 26

Terry Elliott Terry Elliott (Aug 26 2016 8:21PM) : Exactly more

This vid annotation feature is just being rolled out and will be announced officially at the next TTT. Hey you can annotate images, too. This tool is triple threat.
