WHAT'S YOUR PASSION?

Architecture, writing, design, mechanics, music, dance, activism/politics, teaching, video/photography?

Tell us what drives your passion and why!


We had an amazing class with Mike showing everyone how to check stats, seeing how many people have looked at our blogs and from what country. Everyone had reached over 30 people and some of the visitors were from different countries. Mike also showed us all how to monetize our blogs with ads or a donate button. Frank from my Documenting Social Injustice class at Columbia College Chicago came to visit and help teach about using media and music to get your message out. He played his beautiful song "My Stone" which he wrote for his Mom for her birthday.

Think about how you can share your writings, art work, music and photos with the world and interest people to follow your work and donate or buy your art, books and music in the future. We'll talk about more ways to connect with an audience using social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.

Check out Frank's song below and another cool song below that!

Check out this video I did with my DocSocIn students, the Fefes and Divas of Access Living and choreographer/teacher and dancer Ginger Lane. The dance students used Flip Cameras to interview each other about the dance.

Check out this Disability Pride Parade promo video I did a few years ago. Let's design an ICRE-R
Media Lab T-Shirt logo and think about how to get our word out on the street and into the parade!
