Daily Create: Slinkies, Poems, & More

For week 12, we had three daily creates.

I started off with the eclipse poem, which I did a fairly simple version of it.

Poem: set out for a solar eclipse

The eclipse was enough art itself so for the poem, I kept it simple. Here’s a picture I took of it that day. We couldn’t find any glasses so my dad took an X-ray film, but he had it doubled for extra safety so it had some shadows but still looked great!

For my second daily create of the week, I created a slinky!

When I saw this daily create, I was honestly tired of these cool art tools, because I have done like five various ones at this point. However, I ended up accidentally creating a slinky and then I got excited about it! The only thing is that you can’t see the individual circles of it, which I tried to get it to have that aspect, but unfortunately it did not work.

Finally, my last daily create was what’s on the internet. For this, I choose to make it with what I’ve been seeing recently on the internet which is relatable memes.

On The Internet …

Are some really funny and relatable memes.

Here’s a relatable one I’ve been seeing lately:

Daily Create Roundup: Week 12

Here are my Daily Creates for Week 12!

The first one is a trading card I made for Remy the Rat. I’m not sure when I started using Remy as my avatar for “anonymous” things online, but it has been my go to for a while, and it was fitting to make a card based on him.

The second one was to animate something that shouldn’t move. This is a moving / waving banana. Pretty self explanatory but I wish I could make GIFs of this quality on my own.

The last one was to make an eclipse poem. I highlighted a few words to stand out to create a piece on the emotions of the eclipse. A lot of descriptive adjectives to bring out the expressiveness of this poem.

Daily Creates & Video Project

To start off this week, I wanted to complete my daily creates first then work on my video project. My first daily create, Daily Create: 04/10, was a poem about nature and its majestic aspects. Two of the daily creates this week incorporated the use of poems, very different from previous weeks. This daily create, Daily Create: 04/11, was interesting because there are so many different directions this could have. On the internet no one knows anything about you, which can be frightening to some but is usually not a big deal.

For my video project, I wanted to go off of some of the aspects that were included last week in the Radio Show. I feel that Jonathan had a lot to add on for aggressive technologies. Adding Dr. Oblivion into the picture was a for sure right move. Off of this, I wanted to make the video project gloomy and dark rather than just a normal storyline. Formulating responses off of Dr. Oblivion was the best part of this experience. I also wanted to make offers to those who may want to invest in aggressive technologies so they are ahead of the 8 ball. If they are left in the dust, they will be doomed and be taken over by AI robots or their counterparts. I am glad the way it came out and I hope y’all enjoy it as much as I do.

Rough Draft of a Quote

For today’s daily create I am creating a rough draft of a quote that didn’t make it. I am using the quote “I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart; I am, I am, I am.” For my version of the quote that didn’t make it, the quote goes like this, ” I took a short breath and yelled out loud: I am not, I am not, I am not. As you can see both the quotes are very different. Hope you guys enjoy this little silly rough draft of a famous quote.

Daily Create: 04/12

by Andrew Johnson

“But the Raven still beguiling all my fancy into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird, and bust and door;
Then upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore-
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt and ominous bird of yore
              Meant in croaking “Nevermore.”

Week 12 Daily Creates

I started these early so I get to post this before Friday!! Woooo!!!

On Tuesday, 4/9, the prompt was,

“Twist the colors to make some Spiral Art. Use “advanced mode” for deeper settings. Go to Spiro Artwork by Zazow. What will you turn into art? Share it out. (and maybe listen to some Spiro Gyra as you work — get it?)”

So I played around with this for a few minutes and came up with this!

Nothing super interesting about the work to this one to be honest, but this was just fun and satisfying to just click around and see what it did. I like how the closer you look you can see more individual lines. It’s so cool!

On Wednesday, 4/10, the prompt was,

“Write a nonet about your daily creative practice.  What’s a nonet? I discovered this form thanks to Sam. A nonet is a nine-line poem. In the nonet form, each line contains specific, descending syllable counts. The first line contains nine syllables, the second line contains eight, the third line contains seven, and so on. The last line of nonet poetry contains one syllable. The nonet is a poetic form that can contain any rhyming scheme and cover any subject matter.  How to write a nonet.“

You know I love when I’m tasked with writing something . . . that’s how I really get my brain going! I went to the first thing I could think of to write about, which was interesting, my computer’s fan, and I wrote,

The fan in my laptop screams at me
But I am barely using it
Maybe it is getting old
But it still works like new
Oh, it is calm now
Faint whispering,
it cries out,
“Upgrade
me”

Whoaaa, when I make that centered it looks really cool because of the descending syllables.

Anyways, this wasn’t too hard like I thought it would be. I just told the story of my laptop’s fan yelling at me and how maybe the laptop is getting to a point where she needs an upgrade . . . needs to be put out of her misery, perhaps. She was pricey though!! I’m not ready!!!

On Thursday, 4/11, the prompt was,

“This famous New Yorker cartoon comments on the anonymity of going online. What else is true about the Internet?“

And there really wasn’t a lot to think about here for me. I ended up posting,

“what else did you know about the internet? it’s listening to you . . . every word you type . . . it takes in . . . for the algorithm !”

I wanted it to be kind of eerie, so that you feel the hesitation, like, no . . . this can’t be . . . the Internet . . . it’s listening to me!! But, like, it’s normal, it’s not something we should be super concerned about because it has always done this with cookies and stuff (unless we should be concerned!)

That’s all for this week!

On the Internet 

For today’s daily create I am explaining what else is true about the internet. The Internet is a vast global network that connects billions of devices worldwide, enabling instant communication, access to information, and online services. It creates economic growth, facilitates cultural exchange, revolutionizes education, and fosters innovation. However, it also poses security challenges. There are many more factors of the internet, this is just a small glimpse of it.
