According to Headless ds106 Week 1: Are You Ready For Bootcamp?<\/a> we are asked to:<\/p>\n

In this first short clip, listen to what art critic Robert Hughes has to say about why Art is important- and keep in mind this entire course is about creating art. Go beyond the fact that he sounds like an art critic. Listen to what he says.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I listened, I didn’t really like this:<\/p>\n

it’s not a task achieved by groups by movements it’s done by individuals<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It rubs against what I feel I gain for ds106 meeting and learning from folk in an interesting space. It smells a we bit of Thatcherism.
\nI also feel uncomfortable with the idea that I am making art in ds106, I am minded that art should be a bit harder, more difficult than what I am doing.<\/p>\n

Watching the movie through a couple of times I flicked on the close captions, I often find these amusing. Rather than think hard about Mr Hughes’ word I decided to play. <\/p>\n

Using 4K Video Downloader<\/a> which is free, I downloaded the video and a srt (subtile file, generated from the captions). This allowed me to use gifboard<\/a> to grab a gif with a caption from the video, I basked it down to B&W with Fireworks.<\/p>\n

\"Robert<\/p>\n

And do a wee bit of editing of the srt file:
\nMake the wolf hole<\/strong><\/p>\n

Optimism is coming next,\r\nFish out the crystal,\r\nRush towards insignificance, \r\nThis is the real thing.\r\n\r\nThis needs respect,\r\nAnd nobody can,\r\nPollack with the<\/em> server.\r\n\r\nMatisse with with the puzzle,\r\nMake the wolf hole,\r\nListen all its glory,\r\nThe true feelings.\r\n\r\nClose the gap between you,\r\nAn experience of the world,\r\nLevell<\/em>ed out,\r\nAlways going to have ups.<\/pre>\n
Created by deleting some text from the file, I added one the<\/em> and a l<\/em> which are in italic above.
\nHere is the .srt file: Robert Hughes on what art is.srt<\/a>
\nI blogged about gifboard at the start of this year<\/a>. It is a nice tool to have in ones gif toolbelt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
