Intro PJ Class

While wandering around watching my Intro to Photojournalism students make photos, I made a couple frames just for fun. Was just playing with shadows mostly. Have a peek. I'll post some more interesting stuff after the weekend.

Distractions

Was wandering around campus at DU today avoiding doing some much needed homework when I decided to make some photos. Made me feel like I was being somewhat productive. Until I went to class and was completely confused by Processing, again.

Someday I'll understand that dang code.

Tweets Visualized

Here's something different. It's a Wordle word cloud of my activity on Twitter. I've been fascinated with the various ways that people are coming up with to display data in the digital space. Here are other ways to look at the data in graphs from TweetStats. You can graph out any public Twitter user there.

Seems as though I'm talking about working, class and Twitpic as I shoot time while I'm going.

As more and more data is generated all across the web, people will need more effective ways to use and learn the info. Now if there was only a way to do photo clouds on Flickr...what would that look like I wonder? I guess I would have to be better about tags on my photos for that to work anyway. Or I guess try the Photosynth tool.

Found these and a bunch of other Twitter tips and tools here.
