For this daily create, we to tell a story using two images. This describes my friend so well because not only is this image funny, there is some truth in it because he is an extremely good tennis player. This assignment was pretty easy, I just put the two images I wanted into a collage app and it generated the image. Then I put some text over it to tell what was going on.

This was a very cool daily create because we got the opportunity to turn text into hieroglyphics. Hieroglyphics have always been interesting to me because they are pictures for text essentially, which were used by Egyptians. This assignment was pretty straight forward and simple. I put the text that I wanted into the generator on the ds106 website and generated what I wanted to say. After I saved the picture and tweeted it. My inspiration came from being an Arsenal fan and saying that Arsenal will win the league. This is ironic because the last time Arsenal won the league was probably around the time the Egyptians were around.

This was a cool daily create because I always enjoy editing ds106 assignments. This picture looks a little grainy because the picture I used of me was a black and white picture. I still think it turned out decent seeing as this is one of the only pictures I have of me. The app that we used was very simple and easy to use, all you had to do was upload a picture from your computer. I like how in the picture there aren’t a many outlines but you can still make out that it’s a person in the picture.

The one thing I hate about the internet and am seeing more and more of every day is clickbait titles. They are the most ridiculous things and annoy me every time I’m on Facebook. The worst part is that the companies that generate them make there money from people clicking on them and seeing whatever pointless video or post the title is really about. The assignment was relatively easy. I found this picture on the web and used a photoshop website, Pixler to put the text on it. I would like to do more assignments like this because I like this kind of satire. I have a passion for it, even if it is negative passion.

For this assignment we had to find a movie poster for a move with the plot of “A mermaid rebuilds the Brooklyn Bridge out of paradoxes.” I picked this picture because the movie makes me think that the movie would be some kind of fantasy adventure. This assignment was challenging at first because I did not have any pictures on hand that would fit this movie plot so I had to go to the web in order to find one. The picture is from belasbrightideas.com which is another site which also uses WordPress. I look forward to other assignments such as this one.

This daily create was fairly straight forward. We had to take a picture using the ASCII camera. I really enjoyed the way the photo came out even though some parts of it are a little hard to see. It is a picture of me and my coworker while we were sitting at the desk today. I thought that the way the picture was made up entirely of numbers and letters was very interesting. It makes me wonder how the camera generates its text in order to make the picture. I also thought it was ironic that the picture is made up of text yet you can barely read any actually text from the picture.
