This week was A LOT.
We all talked over the weekend about what we were going to do, we all met on Wednesday and created the script, recorded separately on Thursday, and I put together the audio today! That part took a lot longer than I thought it would. Just …
Week seven already!
This week was more of a collaborative group week, which was great!
My group, group 3, better known now as “The Legends”, landed on what we’re going to do next week for our radio show. We’re going to talk a lot about our characters in a sort …
This week, primarily today and yesterday because of midterms, my group talked about what we were going to do for our radio show. We landed on a couple of ideas, but I think we’re sticking with a sort of support group for all of our characters who talk about themselves …
I really love this. I realized how much I like putting Irri in random places last week when I put him in space, and I think it’s becoming a personality trait of his, sort of just appearing places. The Legends is our group name and more information on what we’ll …

This assignment was a quick fun one. Because I’m a giant loser, I have a watch that on the hour makes the same sound as the clock tower from Majora’s Mask. I recorded the playback of the watch, and took the chimes to create the sort of hard, dark …
http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/sick-beat/
This “sick beat” was created with me recording the storm last night, converting it to midi, and making a beat with with sticks from the limb that fell on my car! I thought that was funny enough to create this with. I audio to midi’d the beat I made …
http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/mixing-soundtracks/
The directions of this assignment were vague, but I like what I did with them. I found three songs from the Spirited Away soundtrack that I thought went well together, and fed them into each other. They aren’t exactly all just playing at the same time, they’ve been tempo …
http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/autotune-something/
This was just a really silly exercise for me. I started by autotuning me talking to my dog but I didn’t get the harmonics that I wanted out of it, so I switched over to a song from the Animal Crossing soundtrack. Just using a pitch shifter, I took …
Wow, I feel like I just did week five!
This week was design week! It was a lot of fun to flex some of the photoshop muscles again but to also use some other programs and online resources.
The week started with readings on design and new ways to think …
This is really interesting to think about. I don’t think it’s that I never noticed that everything that’s not made by nature was designed by someone, I just think I took that fact for granted. Look around in my room, every single thing around me was created by someone sitting …
I like this one a lot. It’s made using art that I made yesterday and I really like it as the background. I don’t like the font but I couldn’t …
I created a minimalist t-shirt out of a design I made the first week. I really like ~fashion~ but I like minimalist comfort ~fashion~. I really like how this shirt …
I made this maybe humorous picture postcard of a place I visited in Ireland. I liked it a lot and it’s definitely a joke I promise. I really like how …
A word cloud of words associated with Irri! It made me think of his characteristics more than I have before and I think I fleshed him out a little more. …
Irri in an alternate universe! I got to put Irri in the middle of a scary looking space thing and I really like how it looks! I assume he’s having …
Here’s my designblitz ~~
This was fun. I glad I happened upon some of the things that I found this week.
First is my balance picture:

Rad!
This week we worked in audio, which is what I do for a living! It was a lot of fun, and I got to do a lot of things I wish I did more of.
The week started with an in depth thought of what is radio and why …
I thought that Jad had a lot of nice points. I agree with what he was saying in that they said radio would be dead 50 times before now and they’ll keep doing it until it dies, but I don’t think it’s in the context he thinks it is. When …
Radio scares me. I remember really enjoying radio as a kid when I was living in Richmond and 102.1 and 101.1 were constantly playing nu metal and Elliott in the Morning was on every morning (is that still a thing??). Obviously, I’ve grown up and so has the rest of …
Here’s my radio bumper!! I’m really awkward in it but it’s sincere so I kept it. The background music is Joji’s Dancing in the Dark
…
I had work every night this week so sadly I couldn’t participate in the listen. I did however listen today from 3:30 – 4:30pm. It was easily the most enjoyable radio experience I’ve had in a very long time. The host, DJ Sheila B, shared a lot about her feelings …
I made a short little story about Irri using only sound effects! I like to think that he woke up from a nightmare, got into a fight with a lawn mower, and was shot out through a portal to the beach. I tried to use only sounds that I either …
Here’s a short little cover I did of the opening track to the game Hyper Light Drifter. The assignment was to change up how you play the song a little bit, so I slowed it down, edited the piano sound, and played some embellishments on a lot of the chords. …
For this assignment, we were to make a relaxing audio loop/ 10 hour video rip off. I chose to work on an old ambient loop that I made a few years ago and this is what came out! All of the sounds are made using synths, there are no audio …
For this Audio Assignment, you were supposed to take a song, convert it to midi, upload it to a different program, and film the piano analysis of the midi. Sadly, the program is windows only, and I’m a mac user, so I went a little more in depth on the …
I feel like I start all of my week reflections with Wow! So I’m going to start this one with Woah!
Woah!
These two weeks were a lot of fun! I’m a terrible writer so I had some issues with those assignments, but I think I did a pretty …
What you don’t know is that the superhero here is the pigeon. You think it’s just a pigeon. It’s not. It’s pigeon girl. She is strong. She will win.…
I loved this. I really love doing this to photos and I do it often when I break videos. When datamoshing, you have to color shift to make the transitions stick out more so that they break.
Photoblitz!!!
I WATCHED IT CHANGE TO 7:15 from 7:14 I’M SO UPSET I WAS SO CLOSE
This was a really fun exercise! It was equally as stressful! Sorry for the cut on my finger!! I think this is a really interesting task and could be something cool to do from …
