Kicks Condor (Kicks Condor)UPDATED, 11 Nov 2019. Okay, this month’s links are culled from a handful of little threads here and there. @pjrvs’ thread asking: “who has the best personal website/blog?” (I skipped the popular ones or those I’d already discovered.) HN thread, same question. ‘The Internet of creation di...
So I’m collaborating with some local colleagues on a Futurize Your Course competition as part of AUC’s Research and Creativity Convention in April. If you are an AUC faculty member or s…

Kristof De Jaeger (realize.be)Come see me play and place your bet whether I'll make it or not :) wo years after I announced my piano challenge - to be fair, I really only took it serious this year - le moment suprême has arrived: I'll be performing the Moonlight Sonata the 8th of December on a concert in the church of Zevergem. I'm not alone that afternoon: together with 2 choirs and the harmony orchestra of De Pinte, we'll be playing to raise money for Studio Brussel's De Warmste Week. You will also be able to place bets whether I'm actually going to finish the third movement or not, so there's some extra pressure on my shoulders ...
Folksonomy is all very well, but my own set of tags leaves a lot to be desired. I'm forever giving things a tag and thinking I'll remember it and then discovering that not only do I not remember the tag, but also that the tag applies only to a single item, neither of which is very helpful. So I reso...
Attributing your source of discovery should never obscure attributing the creator or originator of the content. For instance, if you repost a compelling poster you found on your favorite design blog, first credit the person who designed the poster, and then attribute discovery to the design blog that brought it to your attention.
USE THE UNICODES–OR DON’T
We’ve proposed two unicode characters for attributing. They’re clean and short, and they help spread the message of The Curator’s Code itself, but they are not the only way to attribute. You can always use words like “via,” or simply hyperlink to your source — the link is the important part.
ᔥ VS. ↬
Part of what The Curator’s Code aspires to do is evolve our thinking about the levels of attribution. “Via” ᔥ tends to denote a direct repost — something you found elsewhere and shared with your audience with little modification or elaboration. “HT” ↬ tends to stand for indirect discovery — something for which you got the idea at your source, but modified or elaborated on significantly when sharing with your audience.
and of course, I’ll give this the obligatory:
[ᔥ IndieWeb chat]
Directed by Jessica Hobbs. With Olivia Colman, Tobias Menzies, Helena Bonham Carter, Ben Daniels. The 1969 moon landing occasions a mid-life crisis in Prince Philip, who thinks of the adventures he has missed as the Queen's consort.
THE CROWN season 3 has landed on Netflix now with 10 more episodes for fans to lap up. The show depicts an interview between Irish journalist John Armstrong and Princess Alice of Green and Denmark. But was the newspaper reporter real and did he really speak to Prince Philip’s mother?
Update: Material below the (old) marker is still wrong. I’m going to go live in a cave and never touch a computer again, but before I pack my bags, here’s the real scoop. A person mention is what it’s called when you link to someone’s homepage as a way of mentioning them in post content. Bec...
gRegor Morrill (gregorlove.com)Since I’m co-organizing a meetup soon, I have been thinking about RSVPs. My event posts support indieweb RSVPs, but I would like to make it easier for a wider audience. One thought I had: since I am using Bridgy to send public Twitter replies back to my site, I could do some basic text parsing and...
It has come to the attention of Creative Commons that there is an increased use of CC licenses by cultural heritage institutions on photographic reproductions and 3D scans of objects such as sculptures, busts, engravings, and inscriptions, among others, that are indisputably in the public domain wor...
