_cokwr: Remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books they used to have at the library? Well, let's do something like that. We’re going to tell the journey of a storybook hero. We won’t give him/her a name, or go into specifics like that. We’re not going to get bogged down on the details. Try to use archetypes and motifs that are recognizable, but it is up to you whether or not you want to make a comment on the accepted norms of fairy tales by breaking them. Start with a picture from Flickr. It can be random or deliberate, as long as it's not All Rights Reserved. Narrate the step of his/her journey, adding what details you will, but staying true to the plot. Comment on the step prior with a link to your step, so there is a clean series of narrative frames, each linking to the next. If there be multiple paths, then we will have a tree of potential outcomes for our hero. You may also start a new story if you wish. Also, please post a link to the step prior so that a reader can backtrack if they get lost or stumble upon a middle step. In summary the strict limitations: -You MUST have an image -Narrate in first person so gender can be generally overlooked. -Post a link to the step prior for backtracking purposes., _cpzh4: Visual, _cre1l: http://blog.houseoftheabsurd.net/archives/150, _chk2m: Tempest, _ciyn3: 45, _ckd7g: VisualAssignments45, _clrrx: VisualAssignments, _cztg3: VisualTutorials45

_cokwr: A famous guitar player appears in an image using a guitar that is belongs to another famous guitar player (bonus points for embedding audio from a riff by yet another famous guitar player. This is a relatively simple project that will help improve superimposing mixed images in Photoshop (or any other image editor with layers). It is similar to the Troll Quotes assignment in that it involves bringing together disparate elements into one place and asks readers to figure who's who and what's whose. The technique used is similar to that described in this tutorial on changing faces on a movie poster (http://pinkzap.com/tutorial/how-to-replace-faces-on-movie-posters/). The new image will consist of a famous guitar playing or holding the guitar of another famous guitar player. My TA went added an additional feature to the assignment by embedding an mp3 clip of a riff by yet another famous guitar player. , _cpzh4: Visual, _cre1l: http://cis0835-fa11.blogspot.com/2011/10/troll-steals-axe-challenge.html, _chk2m: Otto Paertz, _ciyn3: 188, _ckd7g: VisualAssignments188, _clrrx: VisualAssignments, _cztg3: VisualTutorials188

_cokwr: Dig through Google Maps Street View to find an interesting setting for your story. Let your imagination go wild and tell the story of what occurred in that space. Bonus points for using Google Earth to create a virtual tour with multiple settings for your story and narrating it yourself., _cpzh4: Visual, _cre1l: http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l2hyi1pApL1qzun8oo1_500.jpg, _chk2m: Tim Owens, _ciyn3: 18, _ckd7g: VisualAssignments18, _clrrx: VisualAssignments, _cztg3: VisualTutorials18

_cokwr: Badges are everywhere, right. On policemen and women, in the gaming world, in the movies. Well, here is your chance to make a badge for our ds106 world. How does one earn a badge you might ask? Well, in ds106 we like to just do it to ourselves. We are a rather self-indulgent lot.
