I wanted to do something different than my other subdomain sites. I also started reading through the different tasks throughout the week, and planning out when I will complete each task. I think I did well at spacing out the assignments, while also doing the daily creates everyday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daily Creates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daily Create #1<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Daily-Create-Week-1-1-1-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"An inspirational poster with the message, &quot;Every coincidence carries a message, but only the curious stop to decode it&quot;.

One that you would see in a high school classroom or in a doctor&#8217;s office. I used Canva to create it, and then posted it to Mastodon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daily Create #2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Daily-Create-Week-1-2.jpg\" alt=\"A bad drawing of Sammy D.

I opened Instagram after opening this assignment out of procrastination, and saw a post from Sammy D. Eagle, to which I immediately got to work. Of course, it only took me a couple of minutes, and I am not much of an artist, but I am quite proud of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daily Create #3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"A photo of my shadow in the snow, and how the sun's reflection is making it long. \" class=\"wp-image-38\" style=\"width:365px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-1568x2091.jpeg 1568w, https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_4346-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The challenge for this was to take a photo of your long shadow. As I was walking back from lunch with a friend, I saw my long shadow in the snow, and took the opportunity to take the photo. I thought this prompt was quite funny and also interesting, as the effect the position of the sun has on shadows is intriguing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daily Create #4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Happy Birthday\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RcVZfJO01NI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is DS106 Radio&#8217;s 14th birthday so I thought I would share a classic birthday song!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Daily Create #5<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"320\" height=\"194\" src=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-24-at-10.57.38-AM.png\" alt=\"Lions, tigers, and bears, oh my!\nLions, tigers, and bears, oh my!\nLions, tigers, and bears, oh my!\" class=\"wp-image-51\" style=\"width:308px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-24-at-10.57.38-AM.png 320w, https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Screenshot-2025-01-24-at-10.57.38-AM-300x182.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the last daily task of the week, we had to make a poem out of emojis. For some reason, this iconic chant from an iconic movie kept playing in my mind! I guess it kind of counts as a poem, there is repetition?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tasks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Assignment Banks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was excited to complete these assignments, as there were so many options that it was hard to choose from them. The first assignment I did was to find my dream home on Zillow, which I then decided to make a collage of my favorite photos of the dream house I found. To read more about my dream home and my thought process behind it, read <a href=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/assignments\/my-dream-home\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/assignments\/my-dream-home\/\">My Dream Home<\/a>. For the second assignment, I made a GIF from the movie Blade Runner 2049, as it is not my favorite movie of all time, but it is one of my favorite cyber punk movies, with a stacked cast and amazing visuals. To read more, read <a href=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/assignments\/gif\/\">GIF<\/a>. Lastly, or the third assignment I chose to do was &#8220;Who Said What?&#8221;, where I found three characters who share similar characteristics, and made a confusing graphic of them saying an iconic quote, with showing different aspects of the characters. I chose to do iconic characters in the cyberpunk genre, and to read more about it, check out my <a href=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/assignments\/who-said-what\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/assignments\/who-said-what\/\">Who Said What?<\/a> post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Building Participation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I also got to comment on and view some of my classmates blogs! This assignment was pretty easy and fun, as I got to explore my classmates blogs! It was very interesting to see all the different themes, as well as reading their blog posts just to get a peek as to who they are. I am excited to see everyone&#8217;s work in the near future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course Character<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This was probably my favorite task as I got to get creative in creating a character under the film noir genre. It came pretty easy to me, and the archetype of the hard-boiled detective immediately stood out to me. Then, ideas started flowing about how to flesh out the character into something that fits into the genre, but stands out in a way. It was also interesting researching the different archetypes and their common characteristics. Here is my full-fledged description of my new course character, <a href=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/blog-post\/course-character\/\">Course Character<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Readings and Film Review (Dr. Oblivion!)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall, I enjoyed Dr. Oblivions input in the assignments that I used him for! The readings were interesting, as I completely agree with how we should use ethics and morals when navigating advancements in technology. To read my summary, here is my post <a href=\"https:\/\/ds106.livkern.com\/blog\/blog-post\/technopoly\/\">Technopoly<\/a>. With the film review, I was happy to go more in depth about the Black Mirror episode I watched.
