So it was back to audio for the past couple weeks! I (again) dreaded it, so I started off with a pretty easy audio assignmentTaking Back Spam, from the ds106 assignment bank to get back into the swing of things.  Rated 1 star, this assignment called for some type of spam to be read aloud.  I immediately thought about all the spam comments I get on my blog posts and knew I would use one of those.  I didn’t even have to look at the deleted comments because I had 8 spam comments waiting for me!

I made it simple by recording directly to Soundcloud.  It took me 3 takes to be happy with my recording of the spam comment.  I tried to give it a sarcastic tone to make fun of how it was written.  I think I could have been more sarcastic, but I didn’t want to sound too bitchy.  Honestly, I chose this spam over all the others because instead of putting a smiley face in the middle, it literally said, “smile”…I couldn’t get over that!  Listen for yourself!
