A Mutually Exclusive Intersection
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
An intersection of religion and education, while common perhaps shouldn’t be. Are they not mutually exclusive? To have faith in something that can neither be seen nor understood, as is the expectation in religion, seems abominable in education. But then again, consider the following: Close your eyes. Listen three or four times, make a decision as to what sound you’re hearing. Now open your eyes and listen again, this time focusing on the lips as the man speaks. This sensation of changing perceptions is known as the McGurk effect, it represents the illusion that perception is in itself. In response ...
Unlikely Intersection (2 1/2 stars)

This was such a good idea when I saw it…..not when it was time to execute it! I figured with as many funny roads I have around where I live, such as Beaverdamn, Cuckoo’s nest, Pottysville, etc. That I would have fun with this, however being that I live in such a rural area…they didn’t have intersection signs up together, they would either have one or none! So I settled for the crossroad of Beaverdam and Green Bay. This is a silly intersection not just because of the names, but because when you think of green bay the first thing ...

My family and I laugh every time we pass this corner. Right down the street from my house in Inwood, Manhattan. I seriously wonder if these streets were named by a secret trickster, because this is too much of a coincidence. Though it would be weirder if the signs were reversed. Think about it!! http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/unlikely-intersections/ “Take a photograph of a street sign showing the intersection of two names not likely to meet. No photoshopping, it has to be real! Keep noticing what is around you.”-Submitted by: CogDog Related articles Sign Theft: A Surprisingly Dangerous Felony (smartsign.com)

One of my good friends live on Spring Lake Drive, which is a very interesting road because it crosses over itself. I took this picture for the Unlikely Intersections assignment. It took me forever to figure out, What would be an unlikely intersection and went through road names that I knew off the top of my head and couldn’t for the life of me figure it out. I eventually just pulled up mapquest and looked at the street names around me… mostly just a bunch of roads named after trees (though if I had access to the gated community I would ...
In crossing

Irony always makes me laugh. So, the visual assignment of finding an unlikely intersection was fun for me. My finding needs an explanation in order to be ironic. I am closely acquainted with both a Douglas and a William. In fact, soon both will be a part of my family. William is already a family member, but, Doug will soon be marring my sister. But wait! The irony deepens. Although Doug and William have only met once or twice, they are very similar. Both are outdoorsy guys. Hunting is probably their favorite pass time, along with fishing. William is much younger ...
Unlikely Intersections visual assignment for #DS106

I spotted these street names signs and remembered there was a DS106 assignment for this, Unlikely Intersections. Well the combination of street names is not really all that unlikely, in fact they kind of go together. The unlikely part is the survival of the photographer as the only way to get this shot is to stand out in the road. To round out the story, this intersection is in a mostly residential suburban area, though the corner with the street signs houses the fire department and across the street is a large private high school and convent. The other two ...
2 Unlikely Intersections Meet Again

For my last assignment of the week, I decided as I was driving through my home town. I noticed the two street signs, Lamb and New Boston. My first thought was, oh that is probably not good enough, but then I realized that you would never see an actual lamb in the new Boston City. I kind of laughed to myself, picture a lamb walking down the city streets of Boston, never going to happen, or at the lease, it is very unlikely. I removed myself from my car, walked up to the two names that are likely to never ...
What Progress?

This is the photo I took for the visual assignment “Unlikely Intersection.” I love American history but I couldn’t tell you very much about what progress Van Buren made when he served as president. Maybe a history major would like to enlighten me? What Progress?, a photo by maura_monahan on Flickr.

Doing daily photography makes me take note of many more details around me than I did before. I read a lot of signs, and thought over the last few months that it is interesting to find at intersections road signs for names or things that you would not expect to be crossing.
