Lens Metaphor and Navigation

1) Head - Towards the top of the Lens you'll find the brain and central nervous system with all the main network connections. Think of it as Dave Central, where you can explore key Social Media profiles, web content, and related information.

2) Body - A Lensography for all Dave's curated content hosted here at Squidoo. Each Lens focuses on a particular topic, designed to help you absorb, apply, share, and enjoy it's central theme.

3) Lower Limbs - Dave's Lifestreams, connecting and delivering information from outside of Squidooo, such as blog posts, realtime status updates, social bookmarks, and other distributed media.

Comments can be left at the foot of the page.

To summarize
This lens aggregates Dave's content, his project data and user profiles, over a period of time. Functioning as a nerve-center, test-bed, and social media launchpad. It is therefore a Living Lens, continually evolving as fresh ideas and content emerge.

About Dave

His blogs and social media projects

David Holmes is a UK based blogger, content creator, digital curator, independent researcher, photographer, social media facilitator, and sound engineer.

Dave's an enthusiastic supporter of Free Culture and Open Content initiatives. Much of his Internet research and media curation in related fields is shared through the growing network of Squidoo lenses featured here.

Further writing and documentation can be found on his blogs (you can view the blog feeds lower in the lens):

Also via the Creative Commons weblog and here, at the Open Media Directory - a clearinghouse for sources of legal, podsafe audio and video.

"Highlighting creative ideas, innovations and initiatives that challenge the status quo and stimulate the mind"

Dave usually blogs about highly motivated people with strong but positive messages and unique creations worth spreading and preserving.

His blogs and lenses function as repositories of interesting, useful, and entertaining information. Largely designed for posterity, they combine current events with features of a more enduring nature, hence the curational aspect of his work.

Attention is given to the documentation of things that, although very much of their time, also have a timeless quality worthy of revisiting in the future. Just like most good art, great ideas are frequently both timely and timeless.

His tweets are more like engravings in stone than whispers on the wind, almost always linking to something of value to readers.
