My first try with the new generator hit gold. Add Dr. Seuss to Fat Cat art. However, I was nervous about messing other ds106 pioneers’ work. So I went with what was safe, and I decided to play with Cogdog’s work as seen here:
It nice and all but it was missing something, like some Dr. Seuss action.
BAM! Cat in the Hat making a come back.
Now, I could have stopped here and said, ta-da, my first mash-up and be done with it. However, the narrative is still the same as what Cogdog created except there are a few additions to the cast.
That’s when I noticed that the cat’s line of sight is directly at the fish bowl (didn’t plan that). So, by adjusting the saturation levels and adding a little paint. I made a NCIS-esque crime scene photo.
Maybe the red, evil eyes thing is a bit cheesy but I think its warranted considering the original dog poker painting is a cultural cliche.

I do not think the red eyes are cheesy I think they make the picture. Its like that cat has to win!!!
Well done! The cat in the hat is the bomb and so is this remix!
Very, very well done, and you are right—this is a brilliant combination. And you made the best of it!
