Spring has come to Copenhagen
This is basically just a post for showing my friend Mike the whole process from shooting a video to embedding the code on the blog. Spring has come to Copenhagen and even though the wind is a bit chilly, this is definitely an improvement over a mere weeks ago.
Sounds like Mike is from England!
“warm in some parts cold in others…” I know what he means, it just sounds really funny!
good way to teach. just do it in front of them.
Yep. Shoot, edit (maybe) and post. It must be nice to be able to teach people like that
@Susan: Yup, he is a Brit, lived in Denmark for over 20 years tho.
@Jay / David: Well, it was an informal part, showing by doing. Showing the process.
I am the Mike referred to by Raymond. I am gobsmacked by the learning I am having with R. Learning here = technical: how to blog etc, but more importantly about how the world is opening up with the use of new media, about how I can change and make a different sort of contact with the world (big word) and other people. In the past I would have read articles about this, but thanks to R’s patience in teaching me some of the technology I am (always becoming) a part of it.
We are actually working well synergetically, since part of my background is in communication and we spark each other off. Wow.
Yeah, just a couple more comments. Learning by doing is great approach and for me it takes some time to grasp it so the small theoretical background r gives is helpful for me to put it into context.
The doing it in front of me, in the cafe scene above absolutely left me speechless - suddenly our thing there and then was out to whoever saw it!!
