The first assignment of the week (5 stars) was to create a book cover with design in mind. The book cover had to be about Body Image. First, I fund clip art of a girl looking in the mirror and seeing a fat version of herself. I picked this because I feel like body dysmorphia …

Then I read a cool Brain Pickings article about Kidd and his book and followed a few of the links on the website including an interview Chip Kidd did. First of all, the article was a cool example of how the hyperlinks can make …

For this assignment, I had to write a poem that could maybe fit in with my radio show. I figured, maybe there’s a point where I can add this in to explain how life is life for a secret agent and that it isn’t always amazing as movies crack it up to me. So I …

A Daily Create I did on Feb 10th was super funny, but I did feel bad for making fun of this guy and downplaying what he did. For this Daily Create I had to put a bland statement on a heroic picture to make it seem like an ordinary thing. I picked the guy who …

Sound is the Ultimate Storyteller

by @gmoore333

| #audioreflection, Syndicated
February 12, 2019

In my opinion, sound drives stories by creating mood with happy music or scary/dark music. However, it goes beyond that. By hearing familiar sounds such as silverware clinking, you automatically think of a dining setting where a scene is taking place. This week, I listened in to the ds106 radio show and things like that …
