Where to from Canada?

Judging by his recent StoryBox Demo at Brock university post Alan Levine (@cogdog) and his Storybox have managed to escape from Philly and make their way safely to Canada. That’s great news for sure, but where to from there?Just where will his mission to find the Centre of the Internet take him to next? I mean, I’ve heard rumours that Alan is planning to visit Australia, but I fear for his safety in transit. The same people or mysterious organisation that abducted him in the first place may still be trying to prevent him from finding the Centre of the Internet.

I quickly recorded this response just to let Alan know to be alert as he continues his mission to find the Centre of the Internet.

Alan, if you’re reading this, please let me know that you’ve planned a safe and secure transportation for your journey to Australia. You may need to use alternate forms of communication, super-duper encryption or an alternate identity to avoid detection and guarantee your safe passage.

Good luck with the next part of your mission!

How do you get out of Philly?

So…I’ve been out of town for a few days. I arrived home to find out that Alan Levine (@cogdog) had not only managed to use a mysterious secret hatch to escape from the train where he was being held hostage, but has also somehow ended up at the EDUCAUSE conference in Phil(ly)adelphia. Curious.

Now, I’m always happy to try and help out a friend in a jam. Previously, I recorded a dispatch from over here in response to Alan’s dispatch from somewhere. This time, I thought I could help Alan get out of Philly. So I quickly recorded this video in response to Alan’s ‘How did I end up in  Philadelphia’ video report.

Alan, if you’re reading this I hope that my suggestions are helpful and that you’re able to make it out of Philly.

Keep us updated with your Journey to the Centre of the Internet.

A dispatch from over here

Wow, I’ve just finished watching the mysterious and somewhat disturbing ‘Dispatch from somewhere’ videos recorded by Alan Levine about his apparent abduction. It looks like he’s in a lot of trouble, so I quickly recorded this video in response to his urgent cry for help. Hopefully this video gets to Alan in time.

Alan, if you’re reading this, remember that we are all here to help you!

Good luck!

ds106: Visual Assignment 35 – Illustrate 106

Visual assignment 35 brief

Let’s celebrate our 106ness- create a graphic, find a photo, manipulate an exiting image to somehow represent the number 106. It could be literal (like a sign that has 106 on it, example below), to say, something using CVI (roman digits), maybe something with 106 items in it….
