Hey NetNarr!! This past week, we returned from Spring Break. It was extended tho – with a little March Blizzard. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it to class. Fortunately, Professor Levine recorded it. Nonetheless, the class carried on strong. Taking the Virtual Bus Tour stop to Vermont’s Young Writer’s Project. I visited their website & It’s pretty inspiring to see really young writers have a certain comfort in their writing! This week, in serendipity – I looked up the word ‘onomonopia’ […]

Good Morning NetNarr! In today’s Digital Daily Assignment #79, you asked participants to improvise from an original tag phrase ” I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours “. Then we are to choose a new one to share. The idea is to start with the phrase and to build on with an additional word – or phrase. To complete this ” remixing” with a creative representation revealed with the corresponding word. Immediately I thought of some friends over […]
Hey Netnarr! Earlier this week for Digital Daily Assignment #75, you asked for participants to spend time with this moving photo by Aleppo – to then create a short story that includes what this man is listening to on his record player. We are to use words to give a sense of the sounds of his environment. Here is my short novel (in prose). — A Man Listens to Reconstruct these are still my walls. my broken walls. am i broken? i carry […]

Hey Netnarr! In today’s Digital Daily Assignment, you asked for a symbol that represents ourselves as Alchemist (LOVE IT!). Below is a draft sketch of a signature I am working out for a developing “art-catalogue-story” project, called JoGoesWest. Even further, I’ve attached a sneak into some very special designs cooking up for a launch from Le-PetitLab! Jo is a Millennial warrior displaced from the tantalizing East; A pioneering traveler of roads to the Wild Wild West – Jo is empowered by alchemic concoctions of lo-fi means, in order to survive a 7-month roadtrip alone. Follow JoGoesWest – […]
GranmèJo Says Our muscular ability, when de-mobolized – we’ve developed an antidote! An antidote – a medicine – through fashion design. Fashion design thru particular selection – of thread. A thread – that is knitted? Yes – exactly. Granmè doesn’t just knit for giggles – her consciousness & thoughts are transmitted through the fine generators & distributors of each fiber on. that. lovely. darn. yarn. ok. In fact, because of Granmè – each time you wear her hand-knitted scarf, you […]
Reminds Me of Kelis Back When –
How The Internet Can Make You Feel –( even without taking a selfie )
Dear #NetNarr , This week’s main topic struck home to my digital experience. Asked if I had, a feeling of control in the networked narrative experience – whether I felt lost in the chaos ( ha! ) or maybe, even a combination of both – I was eager to work thru a response. To answer this, in our Digital Storytelling class ( taught by two professors, Dr. Mia Zamora & Professor Alan Levine ) we made […]
