For this assignment we had to listen to a text conversation between Romeo and Juliet. We all know that they died in the play so this was a conversation in the afterlife. The sounds used were the keyboard text sounds, two received text chimes (one was the train), text sent chime, a harp, and a […]

For this assignment, we were asked to listen to an audio piece by Audio Smut about a modern day Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet are having a conversation about their relationship in the afterlife. A few sounds that can be heard are the harp, horn, iPhone texting jingle, eerie background theme, typing and a […]

The sound effects used are a harp, typing sounds, text received chime, and a train sound. The producer altered their voice to mimic how their voices would sound through a phone. The chime tended to preface Juliet talking and the train prefaced Romeo talking. Reverb and a constant ambient hum created the idea that they […]

For this assignment, we were instructed to listen to an episode of Radiolab and dissect the different sounds created during the episode as well as explain how they plunge the audience into a deeper environment. The episode I chose to analyze was Super Cool.  The episode begins with Walter Merch describing a book he read […]

In this piece I wanted something creepy. So I took some static that you see in a disconnected tv, a creepy girl wanting to play, and WWE theme song from wrestler Bray Wyatt with a little twist.

The episode that I chose was “Haunted” I chose this because honestly anything haunting or paranormal to me is pretty intriguing. The show is actually a Halloween special and they chose to interview Dennis Conrow and it talks about how he was forced to move back home after his parents both came down with caner […]

So for the DS106 assignment I decided to do a ringtone well in my case an alarm clock ringer. The reason being is because normally I keep my phone on vibrate all the time. As for why I chose an alarm clock ringer, it is because I usually have trouble waking up with an alarm. […]

For this I had to create my own ringtone from for songs composed in 40 secs. The songs I chose were try me by the Lox, Get money by Biggie, Brooklyn by Fabolous, and can’t bad mi up by Mavado. And to clip them together I used audacity. Hope you enjoyed.

This is a soundscape created with clips from freesound.org to create a dream like sound. I used delays, and some other effects to help give a feel of a dream going bad or a horrible dream with the eerie sound effects.

Sound Effects Used Horn Train Spacey Sound Effect Bell Rung Echo Reverb Pitch Shift   The producers altered their voice with the pitch shift, reverb and some echo it seemed like. The sounds that were associated with their cell phones were a horn, a train passing by and  text message ringtone. There was a spacey […]

What episode did you pick? Describe the show – what is it about? What ideas/concepts does it address? The episode I chose was Cut and Run. This show is about how Kipchoge Keino was running in the summer olympics race in 1968, with a gallbladder infection. The ideas that it address are a commentators perspective […]

  For  week 6 we had to interview someone for 5 minutes and ask them there first time. My partner for this assignment was Ashley. There was really no set question on what we could ask are partner so I decided to ask her about her first kiss. During the interview we found it difficult […]

I picked the robot voice tutorial because I liked how he taught the tutorial. He was able to change the tone of the voice by mainly using the pitch shift tool. It wasn’t hard to follow because he gave a really simply, and straight forward explanation on how to create this effect. I recorded myself […]

Hey guys! Yesterday I took a trip to The Museum of Moving Images with my two lovely sister’s Josephine and Justina. Being as honest as we were, we asked for 2 student tickets and 1 adult. In the process, I pulled out my ID to show the clerk and he just looked at me. So […]

I think the producer altered the actors voices by changing their EQ, pitch shift, and adding an echo affect. When I listened to this recording with headphones and I noticed the producer altered their voices so you can hear them separately through both ears. I heard Juliet’s voice through the right side of the headphones […]

Libra is a girl typing on a computer and other people are around her typing as well.A few girls walk by the classroom in the hallway,and then a puppy is barking.I added in fades in the beginning and end.I tried to blend the typing of the keyboards.I had to turn the volume of the dog’s […]

  List of sounds I heard Key board clipping Swoosh for email or text Sending or receiving a text A train horn/whistle The violin sound usually used in movies played at the beginning indicating a dream or a thought of re-enactment from the past or future.So, that gave me an idea that Romeo & Juliet […]

The challenge for this ds106 assignment was to autotune something that is not usually musical. I decided to autotune one of my personal favorite Stephen A Smith rants.

I chose to listen to “Haunted” which is a show about paranormal investigators interviewing a man and his experience being in a haunted house. Basically how he knew his house was haunted and what it means for a house to be haunted. The producers use this sort of mysterious mello background music. The music in […]

Brenda and I interviewed Rosmady while she was under an AC vent in the hallway. Our task was to isolate the background’s frequency but still making Rosmady sound clear and sharp. The air conditioner’s original frequency was 2,600 Hz. Changes were made after finding the loudest part of where the frequency.Filter was use to widen […]

https://soundcloud.com/kilokay/autotune For this assignment I basically had to autotune something. I chose to autotune a hip hop song, for no real reason it was just the first thing that popped into my head. I had trouble at first trying to figure out how I was going to get this assignment done because I’ve never autotuned […]

Sound effects: iPhone effects, text alert, train noise, typing noise, dreamy background music, thump (puts phone down). The dreamy background noise was very effective in my opinion. It made me feel like I was in a dream. The thump towards the end of the recording was pretty cool too. I just felt like I was […]

I picked the episode Radio Lab Hello(season-12,episode-10). There were two stories in this clip, and sometimes the second story got interrupted by the guest who was speaking in the first story . (podcast 48:20 long). This podcast was very confusing, disturbing, and funny. But they main concept is dolphins, and how they speak and act like […]

Today I went to the Museum of Moving Images. I spend a lot of time in the sound exhibit, as well as the Animation/Visual Exhibit. It was actually very intriguing, what I enjoyed the most was the illusion of the moving sculpture. (Feral Fount – Kinetic Sculpture by Gregory Barsamian) I did enjoy the ADR room. […]
