    Analog Return

    by
    There is no question that we are living in a world overtaken by digital technology. The convenience and simplicity of these products are what make them so unique and so desirable to all of us.

    Privacy and Online Exams

    by
    Privacy Privacy is an important part of all of our lives, but some make an effort to protect it more than others. I can definitely say that I’m one of those people. Privacy to me started meaning much more as social media and the internet became more prominent in our society. We’ve all heard stories […]

    Misinformation and social media

    by
    The amount of misinformation on the internet is mind-boggling and social media seems to be a breeding ground for a lot of it. The unfortunate part about this is that many impressionable people fall for it and spread it among their friends and family. Social Media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, have an […]

    Making a video game

    by
    For this assignment, I chose to create a remake of the space invaders video game using Microsoft Visual Studio. I used the software library Allegro to help me develop the 2d game. For me, this project was relatively simple because I am a comp sci major and I’ve been making video games for fun since […]

    Terms of Service

    by
    Terms of Service, or TOS for short, is something that is viewed by many as a long and boring piece of document made by service providers. I for one can only think of one time in my entire life where I actually made an effort to read the TOS for one of the new products […]

    The Internet as a Fantasy World

    by
    Looking back on the content of this semester, I wanted to see if there was something that drew me in enough to revisit it and go a little deeper. I kept finding myself thinking back to the concept of making a physical map representing the internet and the apps and

    Round Cat

    by
    December 3, 2021. Today I spent basically the full day on one short video, but it was good because I solidified my knowledge of some aspects of neural networks. It's stuff that's pretty basic, but I haven't attended to the details over the years, and I...

    December 4, 2021. This was the scene when I opened the garage this morning. Fortunately we were just going to the local store to get milk. After that I prepared and delivered four videos on data, still working on Module 7 of the course. It felt a littl...

    Rebuild the Internet

    by
    For my Rebuild the Internet project, I chose to create a representation of how the internet is our second brain. The Internet has so many features that we can use anytime to create anything we want and also grab as much information from as we want, like our minds. The internet is as creative, imaginative, […]

    WEEK 14 SUMMARY

    by
    My final project is a short film that explores existential angst and features the questions about art and life that have been plaguing me for months. My original concept for this project was an ambitious multi-media fiasco and I quickly realized while working planning it further that I would need to rework my idea. I […]
