This is my first attempt at book art. Inspired by Larry’s make here, I went to Youtube and watched a whole bunch of bookart videos. This is what I ended up with.

Poetry Hack with Piktochart
Over the course of two nights, I took a poem that I’d written in high school and challenged myself to replace as many words with images as possible while keeping the story, rhythm, and tone of the poem intact.
Was I successful? Can someone look at my Piktochart poem and see the “same” narrative I constructed in my free form poem back in 1996? Is keeping the “same” narrative a reasonable goal, much less a hack-worthy goal?
I asked myself these and many other questions both during the process and after, and my full reflection can be found here: http://mindyaearly.wordpress.com/2014/07/13/just-another-writing-hack/

The creative writing experience for me is about art married to the words… they are inseparably entwined visuals of my childhood books of whimsy and beauty …I go back to them for inspiration in my sketching …now my love of playful and personally rewarding artwrites can be hacked with lights making me able to express myself eve more.
Learning to Hack My Notebook
I want to teach my students to design and make interactive notebooks, but first I needed to learn how to use #chibitronics circuit stickers. I went to #TheTech for a workshop with #sfnexmap and learned several new techniques. I met educators from Santa Clara Office of Education, and facilitators Jennifer Dick of Nexmap, David Cole of CV2, and Rebecca Nelson of The Tech Museum, who helped us bring out our inner geek. Parents and Children also participated and were so engaged! All of this Summer of Learning is helping me participate in #nwp #tinkeringstudio #hynb2014 and #clmooc
Hack Your Notebook Day Teaching Kit
This summer, NEXMAP and CV2 are partnering with Educator Innovator to offer Hack Your Notebook Day on July 9th. This program is part of the Summer to Make, Play and Connect, a MacArthur Foundation-sponsored initiative powered by the National Writing Project and the Mozilla Foundation. Explore the rich connections between art, electronics, notebooking and systems thinking by hacking your notebook with power and LEDs.
Curious about how to get your notebook hacking kit together? You can broswe materials here to assemble a kit yourself, as well as order an event kit here.
How to Write Found Poetry
“A found poem uses language from non-poetic contexts and turns it into poetry. Think of a collage — visual artists take scraps of newspaper, cloth, feathers, bottle caps, and create magic. You can do the same with language and poems.”
And this tutorial shows you how!
Visual Poetry Creator
Enter your poetry, select background and text colors as well as angles, etc. You can draw your poetry out in any way you’d like!
Playing with Poetry
Using Thinglink’s new video feature, I linked flower poems written on Tapestry to a YouTube video of flowers blooming. I invite others to submit their own flower poems to add to the video.
