I am sad to say that Radio week is over! I was able to comment on other classmates’ posts and see their progress of the week whether it was a struggle or a success. I had two weeks to create a radio show and it feels like the week where …
Continuing on the radio week! Unlike last week where we decided on the content of the show, we created the radio show itself! My group tried to meet up to make the audio sound the same however due to different schedule we could not meet. Furthermore, we generated a script …

When I first browsed the Vignelli Cannon, I was a little skeptical by the way the text was small. It looked boring to me and it remind me of any text in a book that the teachers make you read. However, I was proved wrong once I started reading the …
Throughout the week, I was task to take pictures of objects for the Design Blitz that showcased several design concepts. While I was reading about the different concepts it helped me see the world in a different way. Ordinary objects around my house became an art of design with several …

I hate to say it but the Lime Town Mysteries has finally ended and to be honest I’m left with more questions unanswered than I thought I would at the start of the podcasts. I absolutely enjoyed the dark aspect of the story especially with danger in every turn Lia …
Continuing on to the third radio show. The Lime Town continues its mystery but this time we can finally get some answers. Lia Haddock is interviewing another survivor. It is crazy how the world is still trying to find answers on the missing people but it seems there …

I really like the “Moon Graffiti” podcasts. While I was listening I could make out all the sounds that was in it. The sounds were so real that I could close my eyes and I could see the astronauts and their struggles on the moon. It is crazy how they …
