My name is Alan Roseman. I have been an active photographer for more than 50 years. Street photography is my first love and the Covid pandemic called me to the near deserted streets of Providence, East Providence, Pawtucket and Central Falls. Each excursion was painstaking for safety reasons as my age and health placed me in a high risk category. I felt the pandemic changed everything, my thoughts on the display of my work included. While it was never my goal, many of the images in the ongoing "Covid Days" album have won awards on the street photography sites internationally.

Welcome to the DLS COVID-19 time capsule archive where you can take a journey back in time to the year 2020 when everyone’s lives were turned upside down by the COVID-19 pandemic. Learn about how De La Salle 6th and 8th grade students adapted to quarantine and distance learning. As part of their social studies classes, students were asked to share what they did while stuck at home including taking classes via Zoom (a video conferencing program), pursuing new and old hobbies, staying connected with friends, and spending WAY more time with their families than ever before. They were able to share these videos and slideshows with their classmates and hope that sometime in the future these projects will help students just like them learn about the unusual spring of 2020.

This video was created for a social studies assignment given to help the De La Salle 8th grade students reflect on the unusual and historic situation brought about by the COVID 19 pandemic. One goal of the project was to give the students a way to share their experiences during quarantine and distance learning with their classmates even though they could not be together in person to wrap up their time in middle school. Another goal was to connect to what students had learned earlier in the year while completing their research for National History Day about primary sources and how they can give one a much more personal understanding of historic events.

My family was driving through Exeter, RI in December when we stumbled upon the most fabulously ridiculous driveway to a home. Signs beckoned us in. Other signs instructed us to tune our radios to 106.1FM which greeted us with holiday music cheer. Lining the driveway were dozens and dozens (100? we quickly lost count!) of inflatable creatures. The owner of the house must surely have bought the internet out of inflatables. There was an elephant, a llama, yoda and a star fighter, minions, towering toy soldiers, countless snowmen, reindeer and santa clauses in various costumes. There was even a santa peaking his head out of an inflatable outhouse. If you could imagine it, it was there. We pulled our daughter out of her carseat and she rode up front in my lap. We slowly made our way down the long drive with the windows rolled down laughing with joy. At the end of the driveway the owner welcomed us. He opened his garage door to reveal santa's sleigh surrounded by an appropriately tacky gold tinseled display. We gleefully accepted his invitation for us to sit in the sleigh, which he helped us document with our phones. I asked him if he does this every year and he responded that this year was the first time. He said that COVID inspired him. He saw how much we all needed some joy, and so he created it. And he made sure it was all very COVID safe. Upon leaving we saw written across the fence of his property in huge cut out letters: "WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER". I wish I got a picture of that, but I didn't. Apparently it's all lit up in the evenings and on Saturday nights from 6-8pm "special entertainment" is offered. I can only imagine. https://ricovidarchive.org/files/original/0fdac3400144211d55d7c9fe8029cc6d.pdf f43464cc4ae922812362b2643490f8af Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

As the pandemic continued month after month and the isolation became unbearable but still necessary, I found that I no longer gained enough intellectual satisfaction from creating classical music compositions (my forte), especially since my newest works probably would not be performed until Covid-19 was conquered. So instead I wrote and gathered together diary-like essays, literary critiques, philosophical musings, poetry, short stories, and narratives from contemporary experience as well as from deep in memory. I had written them each month to send to friends, with no thought of continuity—they would range where ever my mind and imagination wanted to go. I preferred to stay away from discussions about the coronavirus of which I knew little, the care givers who appeared to be so heroic, or the victims of the disease who were even more confined than I was and whose desperate circumstances were so frightening. Nor was I thinking of it as being a diary—my hermetic life was not interesting enough for that type of documentation. No, my writings were meant to be a diversion, to take one away from the horrific plague that in 2020-22 ingulfed us. I must confess that I have made no attempt to stick with subjects that I think would interest a general public. I am not even sure I would know what these would be. So, my suggestion is to only read those entries which excite your own imagination or generate some curiosity. About the Author Geoffrey D. Gibbs, Professor Emeritus of Music Composition at the University of Rhode Island, received a DMA degree in composition and voice from the Eastman School of Music (University of Rochester, NY) in 1974. Born in 1940, Dr. Gibbs began his music training at age seven and was soon composing his own pieces. In high school he studied composition privately with Elie Siegmeister noted for championing American folk music. At Eastman he studied composition with Howard Hanson and Bernard Rogers. He began teaching composition and related subjects at URI in 1965 and has remained in Rhode Island since that time. He retired from URI in 2001 to devote all of his energies to creative projects. His interest in literature blossomed when he typed, edited, and annotated a thousand of his father’s poems and many essays. During his years of retirement three operas of his were premiered. His works were performed in Boston, Providence, Dartmouth College, the University of Rhode Island, Vibe of the Venue, Aurea Ensemble, Verdant Vibes Ensemble and the Fall River Symphony. As well he has had works performed at the Kennedy Center (Washington, DC) and as far away as Russia and South America. As mentioned above, it was during the last two years when it was difficult to present concerts, that Geoffrey Gibbs devoted much of his time to creating his pandemic journal.
