ready for children to find,
some are chocolate

My #blogging4life story #DS106 #CLMooc https://www.nomadwarmachine.co.uk/2025/04/16/my-blogging-journey/

Our city library had a whole celebration of Zines yesterday, with different universities and community organizations sharing Zines from their archived collections. It's pretty cool to see how creative people can be when they follow their muse and interests and create art on their own. It reminds me of some past work with #clmooc community

light snow quickly melts
in the spring rains which follow
both water flowers

rain washed out the game
and today could be the same
such is spring baseball

If you're an educator this could be independent study for your students! Teach them to do the research AND share the message. #clmooc #etmooc

Here's my final #Blogging4Life post, inspired by @nomadwarmachine.bsky.social @dogtrax.bsky.social and @sheri42.bsky.social

Has @tellio of #clmooc written about why he blogs?

March morning chill sets
stage for a cool spring day as
buds begin bursting.

Here's another blogger who I've followed for many years. I was initially attracted by his visualization of ideas. He shared this today. https://julianstodd.wordpress.com/2025/03/17/spaces-of-shelter/

I coded out a Poetry Sound Visualizer that takes the text of a poem, and creates three different visualizations based on letter and syllable:

Phonetic Rhythm
Waveform
Frequency Spectrum

Give it a whirl, if you are interested (caveat being that this is a Claude AI project to consider where your words will go upon submission)

More about what I was doing at my blog: https://dogtraxwrites.com/artificial-intelligence/interact-with-the-poetry-sound-visualizer/

I think some of my #clmooc friends will enjoy looking at the visualizations I shared on the #Tutor #Mentor blog today. https://tutormentor.blogspot.com/2025/03/mapping-ideas-information-and-networks.html

This one show teams/players who were part of the 2023 Women's World Cup.

My interest was inspired by work of @Valdis who I met in late 2000s, along with several others.
