Copy.ai and How to Teach a Bot to Be a Hater
tellio on Have I mentioned that I am doing a research project along with my students for my advanced composition class. They have their own projects while I have mine: will AI replace composition instructors in the near term? The answer I see over and over is that it won’t replace them, it will augment them. If you see that answer often enough, you begin to think it might just a collective “WRONG”!””!”. I certainly do. I decided to let the online […]

Using a Bot to Write a 55-Word Story
tellio on I am writing a 55-word short story alongside my English 200, Intro to Lit class. I have laid out the criteria for the assignment, but it is often difficult to get those who can’t imagine being creative writers to… write creatively. In my research project for my E300 class I am exploring this question: will “mighty scary AI” replace composition instructors at the college level? Something I have been using to find keywords is super Chrome extension, Keywords Everywhere. I […]

Making Your Mark. “X” Marks the Start.
tellio on Found this and felt the need to get back into it. Some annotations and here’s a poem that rises up in the process: Annotate? Navigate? Negotiate? Matters not. Just touch and play upon Each stone and back to home base. How Behavior Spreads by Damon Centola

Using a Pretty Pen and Pencil as a Lever and My Mind as a Fulcrum to the Text: Theoria (thinking), Poiesis (making), & Praxis (Doing)

Teachers as First Responders with Guns
tellio on No Title No Description This is where we are in some states. My Kentucky legislature is not quite here yet, but they are edging the Overton window toward all guns, all the time, and everywhere. There is a bill being considered now that would allow conceal carry without a permit anywhere it is now allowed with a permit. Next step is to allow conceal carry everywhere: bars, churches, and my classroom. That is when I quit. When I read this […]

Epiphany | Apopheny | Whatev-eny
tellio on I was not happy with my work, my making, my…doing of late. And then Bob Ross takes a ‘deliberate accident’ and makes it into a happy accident when he prophesizes, “We don’t make mistakes. We have happy accidents.” Serendips, an accident in my brain, a happy pen stroke. Let’s have a happy accident, an epiphany apopheny. The source of this river of sublime generosity is the kleckograph below here and from Simon Ensor‘s link here: I “blot” a poem from […]

Alchemy Everywhere Via Netnarr Transmogrification
tellio on So much alchemy here if, by alchemy, we mean transformation/translation. Daniel Bassill translated his own year in the form of a clock. Each hour represents a month. The tool he uses for his alchemical reflection on his year blogging is CMap. I transformed it in numerous ways below. I am transforming his image into a short video, a viewer’s “cut”. I made some notes on the back of the envelope he sent that held a thank you […]

Plan Yr Wrk, Wrk Yr Plan
tellio on I tell my students about the best piece of advice I ever got when my wife and I were running our chimney sweeping business. I tell them it made us a lot of money. I tell them we paid for our farm and home with this piece of advice. Now they’re attending. And what was that advice? The owner of Copperfield Chimney Supply, Bob Daniels (Sooty Bob to everybody in the business) shared this piece of advice in a six-cassette […]
