    Introducing James Icarus

    by

Acting like the Bond version of himself, he would spend his days running around defeating imaginary bad-guys and investigating their hideouts throughout the suburbs of the Eastern United States.

    by
    This week was the beginning of our visual unit – good news for you, there’s not a lot of reading ahead.   So, what went down?   My Daily Creates To start, my roommate made heart-eyes at me this week: @ds106dc I’m grateful for my roommate, @zimmermvn, because he gets me outside, makes me look […]

    The Road: Brought to You by Coca-Cola

    by
    The Road I liked this movie so much, I had to do Say It Like the Peanut Butter twice!   SPOILERS AHEAD   I’ll get the ball rolling by being honest: this movie made me cry. I teared up several times, and I thought I was gonna make it – nope. When Viggo Mortensen kicked the bucket, so […]

    The Recovery of DOG_Unit#073517

    by
    This writing assignment is in homage to Black Mirror, Season 4, Episode 5: Metalhead. The GIF on the assignment page is what inspired me! I created directories, files, and code such that it depicts the story from the killer machine’s point of view – told from the recovery file on its hard rive. We can […]

    Things Noted There Will Come Soft Rains Vivid imagery of all the machines, the nursery, and the fire Indirectly develops the setting and context of the post-nuclear house The nuclear after-flash of the family against the side of the house was an amazing description that required some thought and prior context to understand Repetition of […]

    Much to Digest

    by
    End Day Throughout the five apocalypse scenarios (tsunami, asteroid, eruption, virus, and “strangelet”) I noticed how the main character got closer to his goal each time the day reset. Also, the strangelet cascade was the only apocalypse explicitly produced by man – every other apocalypse was natural. Perhaps the episode implies that, even if humanity […]
