Sense-making a Blog-a-thon... (what do those words even mean?) Well I try to explain here: visualthinkery.com/project/blog...

Thanks to @visualthinkery.bsky.social my contribution for the #ReclaimOpen25 Blog-A-Thon now looks more super! Thanks, Bryan! #Blogging4life #4life reclaimopen.com/session/blog...

Montaigne and the Open Web Visual Sensemaking from this week's blog-a-thon at Reclaim Open.

My website is a junk drawer... (I'm visual sense-making at a blog-a-thon.)

Making sense of Sensemaking... The new edition of The Visual Thinker is out - for those that like to make sense of things... bryanmmathers.com?mailpoet_rou...

It's not unusual for my sense-making cartooning process to produce rhyming triplets it seems... Created along with some other AI reflections for the Visual Thinker > buff.ly/LIXLRwQ #ai #cartoon

Sometimes a contrast just presents itself - embedded within a conversation... I enjoyed sense-making with the Mycelial Network at a two-day gathering of people involved in Community Asset Development - distilling out conversational themes as they surfaced...

Monday's webinar on Carbon Finance and Climate Action expertly facilitated by Fauna & Flora, Plan Vivo, and Level was bursting with ideas! — here’s how the visual sense-making evolved in real time...

Delighted to see Leigh, Geraldine and Sheena's work on Assessment for Inclusion published. Here's a visual thought to emerge from the project: Research buff.ly/jYk9L0a @gravesle.bsky.social @geraldineoneill.bsky.social @sheenahyland.bsky.social

Make your research come alive with Visual Thinkery - this time using the playful mask of a cartoon character to explore a very serious topic: different types of PhD supervisors! (created for GO-GN Guide to Doctoral Supervision) with @rfarrow.bsky.social. buff.ly/s2lm2ee

Recently, I've really enjoyed stepping into academic researcher's worlds to bring their thinking and findings to life, like this collaboration with @gravesle.bsky.social and @geraldineoneill.bsky.social at University College Dublin, around their work on Educator use of GenAI. buff.ly/s2lm2ee

Many thanks to @helenbeetham.bsky.social for inviting me onto her podcast to talk about #AI and #DigitalLiteracy - but also ambiguity, vibe coding, and the importance of play. helenbeetham.substack.com/p/doug-belsh... Image CC BY-ND @visualthinkery.bsky.social for @weareopen.coop

What an interesting little tool! #DailyRemix by Galgalon Here's a link to the O'meter Remix: buff.ly/k4dU4TB

Ladders, see-saws, giant gas planets and blue whales. Just a few visual metaphors used in this fascinating report on Fiscal Hosting by the Thirty Percy Foundation. It was a pleasure to work with their team! Report >> buff.ly/aFbHHDO

Is it possible to ethically engage with an unethical tool? Maybe it's naive to call AI a tool - when it consists many tools within many systems... Drawn from a live conversation on #AI with @dougbelshaw.com and @epilepticrabbit.bsky.social Image available to use CC-BY-ND here: buff.ly/DZNEeVt

What makes you distinctively human? (It might not be your humour. Still, outsourcing that to #AI might actually be a step forward...) Image available to use CC-BY-ND here: buff.ly/Hy62PmZ

I'll always enjoy seeing a new Hat Tip Remix popping up on the machine! #DailyRemix by @marendeepwell.bsky.social‬ buff.ly/CwvLm7m Here's a link to Hat Tip Remix: buff.ly/e5NBStC

The comments that appear in open dialogue are always worth reflecting on. Here's a Kierkegaard quote from a conversation about #AI in #Education last week. Image available to use CC-BY-ND here: visualthinkery.com/project/ai-f...

I had the pleasure of live cartooning a webinar on AI and the future of education. facilitated by ‪‪dougbelshaw.com‬ and ‪epilepticrabbit.bsky.social‬ of weareopen.coop‬.#AILiteracyc#AIA#Cartoonon This is image is available to use under a CC licence here: https://buff.ly/Hy62PmZ

This get-together of huddles focused on social change in Birmingham, UK with @econjusticebrum.bsky.social‬ was truly inspiring! As each huddle spoke, I captured some of the things they pointed to. Here's the session condensed to 30 seconds... #Huddlecraft

Got Poppy a new logo for her website from the amazing @visualthinkery.bsky.social <3 <3 <3 <3

Butterflies are always welcome! #DailyRemix by Simona-Marinela Serban. Here's a link to the Morpho Remix: buff.ly/RCkVeuj

Ground is just a line. (to a cartoonist anyway...) This was my initial reflection when my intern Gracie sent me a #DoodlePingPong with the prompt "ground". Then I had an idea. I sketched 4 different grounds between my shed (where visual thinkery happens) and my kitchen (where tea-making happens.)

What an interesting image created with Voronoi, loving the colours! #DS106 #DailyRemix by Kevin Hodgson Here's a link to the Voronoi Remix: buff.ly/mEF14gb

The Project World Remix was created so that I could have a globe, which is fully interactive, to use as an accurate reference for my cartoons. It's been brilliant to see how people have used this resource over the years! #DailyRemix #Globe Here's a link to the Project World Remix: buff.ly/LgwjP5T

If you're wondering what station keeps bees on its roof and has a fancy piano donated from the man Elton John himself... It's St. Pancras! Well done to everyone who guessed correctly during this weeks Remix Countdown challenge. #DailyRemix #Trainstations Underground Remix: buff.ly/JMR7Nbl

I love how cartoons can be playful but not childish, with various types of humour working on multiple levels. These cartoons bring to life research on Social Justice Pedagogies, from a conversation for visual ideas with Antonio Calderón and the team at @unioflimerick.bsky.social buff.ly/uD3OYyS

It's finally time to reveal the images behind last weeks Remix Challenge, with the theme being celebrating the return of the sun! Well done to everyone who guessed correctly. #DailyRemix Here's a link to the Voronoi Remix: buff.ly/ZQWWmMK

I met with my friend @marendeepwell.bsky.social for a chat about postcards and picked her brains about a new live-drawing collaborative format I’m experimenting with. She was telling me about a snail-mail sticker swap and I promised I’d dig out some from the Visual Thinkery archive for the future...

Well, it looks like things are flourishing! It's been brilliant to see people tinkering with this Remix Model in such a variety of ways, after all, the possibilities are endless... #DailyRemix Here's a link to the Flourish Remix: buff.ly/FYVIN8e

I really enjoyed having a blether about The Remixer Machine with the wonderful @cogdog.cosocial.ca.ap.brid.gy for an episode of the @oeglobal.bsky.social Voices podcast. Here's a link to the Podcast Episode: buff.ly/30yvgzP

I made a comic on how we got here & trump/supporters - collecting things he's said that would seem to have been over the line - and how that never seems to be the case is the real problem... on my site with full alt-text and citations here spinweaveandcut.com/draw-the-line/
