Radio Show Ideas
Some brainstorming for our future group projects. -
One small step for kind man
The what if scenario of a failed moon landing is the topic of this audio tale. A theme I noticed that was touched on by Jad Abumrad’s radio segment was the creation of a dreamlike state. From “Moon Landing” the background sound really helped along the idea that this wasn’t happening. And although this fictional … Continue reading "One small step for kind man" -
Brainstorming
We have a radio show coming up in a few weeks so brainstorming would be a good idea. I have never done a radio show I am excited how it will be.I don’t have many ideas but maybe one of them is talking about movies or music from the 80’s. -

All about Audio
listening to moon graffiti definitely gave me a Nasa type Vibe. It reminded me of the times in middle school where we would watch the moon landing or any other Nasa projects. At the beginning you hear like people communicating with each other. Through out I could imagine the speakers in my head. The sounds […] -
Week 5, Here and Gone
Wow, that week went by fast! And yet, I’m happy to say I got a lot of things accomplished. This week, of course, was audio-themed. And in doing all of the required assignments, I truly learned a lot. This includes not only what I learned about in reference to audio storytelling as a concept, but … Continue reading "Week 5, Here and Gone" -
Listen to at Your Own Risk
for my other audio assignments I did Spooky Sounds, which was to create to an audio of spooky sounds. Rated 4 1/2 Stars. For this assignment I thought all the way back to when I was little during Halloween times. I thought about the different sounds I would hear when I went out for trick […] -
Weekly Summary #5
This week getting used to audio and creating my own audio has been tricky. I had to make an appointment with the DKC to let them help me navigate Audacity. I figured it out and that is the platform I used to create my audio assignments. Overall, this week has been the most challenging week yet, but I expect that it will only become more challenging as the weeks go on. Below are my three daily creates that I participated in on Twitter during this week. I enjoyed finding a picture from the 80s and creating a caption for it. -
Ideas for the radio project.
I was thinking for the radio show idea, since it has to involve our theme which is the 80s, to produce a narrative from someone who lived in the 80s. It could be a living person, a dead person, a famous or non famous person. I really do not have a strict idea, but I think this radio assignment could be a lot of fun if we picked the best way to go about it. I am up really for anything for this assignment. I only brainstormed two options below just to see what everyone thinks about it. I am -
Everybody REALLY Wants to Rule the World
I knew I wanted to make at least one mashup this week. I was originally trying to do a true mashup or remix, but this was my first time ever working with audio and using Audacity and I realized how difficult and unfamiliar it is to me. I’ll explain more in my weekly summary, but … -
Sounds of My Life
3 Stars For this assingment I had to record sound that I hear in my life on a regular basis. The first sound is my apartment door opening and hearing my roommate watching TV. The second sound is pages flipping in textbook and novels I have to read for my classes. The third sound is… -

Radio Shows
There are so many possibilities when it comes to radio shows. As I was brainstorming, I was thinking of shows I like listening to. Some of my ideas include: Changing the Decades: travel through the timeline of music for a fun twist on our theme. There are so many gems throughout history! All about UMW:… -
Tweet along
I participated in the DS106 radio tweet along on Wednesday night. Professor Bond kicked off the show with a few radio bumpers (which gave me a good idea of how I wanted to do my own!) and then began the show tweeting: What I immediately found, since I had not listened to a radio show … Continue reading Tweet along -
Keep it Balanced
A drawing I made of one of my favorite heroines. -
Radio intimacy reflections
Jad Abumrad’s videos cover a few topics in relation to radio. Some of the things I found particularly important are as follows: the job to create a circle of connection creating a dream-state new technology enhancing old storytelling ideas familiar sound landscapes radios lacking of picture allowing for the invention of imagined pictures that connects … Continue reading Radio intimacy reflections -

Radio Show?
With the radio show coming up its time to come up with ideas for what I want to do for it using the 80’s theme. I am still not very sure where I want the show to go but I want to be able to have fun with it.I have a few ideas that will … -
Moon Graffiti
WOW. That is all I can say about this podcast I just listened to. Just WOW! From the start of this podcast, I was immediately transported to another world! All the sound effects, background noise, dialogue, EVERYTHING! It all made me believe that it was all real! If I was just shown this podcast without … -
Tongue Twister
by @MonicaG71488057 September 26, 2019He thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees the ghosts… Sorry about Pennywise the Dancing Clown down below! HAHA! This is one of my favorite tongue twisters that was found to be very popular during the 1980s. This twister was even used in Stephen King’s IT. In the movie, one of … -
Daily Creates
This week we were told to blog our daily creates. While I am not to sure what that means I am going to embed them into this post. Each day I just used the first thing that came to mind for completing the daily creates. I was just trying to be creative and feel like … -
80’s Sounds
This assignment was a lot of fun I had to pick my favorite sounds and mash them up together to see what they made. I decided to pull in the 80’s theme here with my sounds. I included some engines that were from the 80’s and thought about what cities in different countries would sound … -
A Movie Told With Sound
It was a challenge, but I managed to somewhat retell a movie scene using only sound. -
Dead Sound Bite
I took the intro sound of TMG's "Deadbeat" and turned it into something new! -

Radio Show Ideas
Hmmm…. radio show ideas! Where to start. There’s so many fun things to do on a radio show. I had the pleasure of co-hosting a couple radio shows at UMW with my friends, and I always enjoyed it. Without further ado, here are some ideas I could think of: I always love learning random fun … Continue reading "Radio Show Ideas" -
What A Sound
The title of this blog post is based on a phrase from the Moon Graffiti audio we listen to this week. One of the astronauts said: What a sight! And yet, we, as the listeners, don’t see much in terms of visual. Instead, we are left to envision based on what we hear. What a … Continue reading "What A Sound" -
You’re Not Gonna Like This [?]
Fair warning: you probably won’t like this. But that’s the challenge of the assignment: create something BAD! The idea behind this challenge was to take an assortment of sounds and mix them together. The result should be… a very bad sound! Hope you guys… don’t enjoy? Can you identify the sounds that were mixed together? … Continue reading "You’re Not Gonna Like This [★]"
