Welcome to Digi's world

Introduction

I'm Digital, but call me Digi.

Irish, but based in Finland at the moment. Freelance consultant specialising in formal and vocational education and training, from secondary through to higher education, with particular emphasis on the use of information technology to bring together those who can provide education services delivery with those who need it. Specialised skills in assessment and accreditation of courses and institutions in public and private sector, with many years experience in Asia Pacific, working towards Millennium Development Goals in basic education reform and education for sustainable development.

Using the Openlife Grid in Education and Training

Two reasons I am here.

Firstly, on the Openlife Grid my plans are to explore the ways in which we can integrate this world into our real world as a tool to improve the quality of life on earth and our planet's biodiversity. If you feel you can contribute in some way I'd love to hear from you - either as a content creator with ideas for creating awareness of endangered flora and fauna and sustainable environments on Gaia, advancements in knowledge and innovation on Danaus, or making a contribution as a resident living on the Danaus Foundation Cluster by calling it your home and renting land on Phoenix and Merina.

Secondly, It's great fun. Meeting lots of interesting people, being a pioneer, travelling roads least travelled. If you would like to know more contact me inworld (IMs will get forwarded if I am not online) or better still send me a message here (and add me as a friend if you like) and I'll get in touch.

Made on the Openlife Grid

One driving theme for the Danaus Foundation Cluster is that content created specifically for the Openlife Grid is actively encouraged here. Whilst there may be some legacy content from other grids I am keen to show that the the Openlife Grid can become distinctively different from other grids, with its own unique attractions. Hence I am pleased to use the Made on the OLG Logo.

Audio and Video

Real Digi's interests include travelling, listening to and playing traditional Irish music and world music. If it has 4 strings tuned GDAE he can probably play it. He also composes music when the mood takes him. All the soundtracks you hear on the videos here are original compositions. The Openlife Grid opens a new dimension to media. If you need advice on playing music or displaying video inworld or need to create a video or music streams I would be pleased to help.

See my video links below

For videos produced for others the Valinor Movie gives an example of great creativity on the grid.
