201005171056.jpg

I have just become aware of some unauthorised access to the software tutorials on KCDA so I have changed the password

to ensure the system works properly it is VITAL that I am able to control access to the bank of tutorials we have so carefully established

please do not share the user PW combination

I will be emailing you all the new pw

let me know if you don’t get this email

from the panic blog (panic being the company who make our beloved coda)

a great piece of music from Grandaddy and a great text based animation all done on an Apple II (my first experience of any computer was an apple II when I was in the 6th form in grimsby in 1979)

watch in awe as the guys at panic load up the program to the Apple II from an iPad

this is a lovely video that works on so many levels and a lesson in restraint, concept and just vision – I love the framing, the music, the details (pot of pencils) the animation – everything – just great

you can see the original by stewart smith here but make sure you watch the panic version too here

***** YEAR 3 *****

some changes to your timetable this week – instead of the scheduled sessions (thursday pm double project and friday prof creative practice) I have scheduled a series of one to one tutorials for each module – see the list below and make sure you are here 5 minutes early for your slot – absolutely no excuses at all here please

I need you to spend 10 minutes in advance of each session preparing what we are going to discuss – see notes below for what I will expect to see – also please download the planner and fill it out – it may seem a little frightening but it is meant to be helpful
