This is my Design Blitz assignment for this week. This photo represents unity as all the individual elephants are the same shape and size, but together they make something much bigger. There is a sense of wholeness and unity because they are all touching. This photo represents dominance. There is no empty space in this… Continue reading Design Blitz Time!

March 4, 2021

This post is about what I learned from this weeks readings. I learned how color can focus the viewer on what is important. For instance, a white background allows the view to focus in on the objects or people in the photo, given there is little background distractions. Color can also describe characteristics of a… Continue reading What a Wonderful Design

For this assignment, I needed to pick some of my least favorite sounds and mesh them together. It was pretty easy selecting these sounds.

For this assignment I had to select some of my favorite sounds and put them in one audio. I selected the sounds of dogs, rain, the forest, and cars. Those are some of my favorite sounds!

This is my evaluation based on the “Moon Graffiti” SoundCloud audio. This audio does such a good job from transitioning from one sound to another, it is very smooth. The sounds put you in the moment, like a Walt Disney ride. This audio gives you a completely different scenario if the moon landing did not… Continue reading Listening & Learning

After the readings and watching the videos, I believe stories in the digital realm can be very complicated. They are not seen as two-dimensional or black and white, they are complex. If you open a book and start reading it, you must finish page 1 before you read page 2. The digital realm allows readers… Continue reading Maneuvering Through The Digital Realm
