Here we are, the end of the semester and my experience with ds106! This has been an extremely long semester for me, probably because it has been my first “normal” spring semester since COVID. I didn’t even know what to expect when this class started, and I remember feeling so …
Here is the link to my final project!
I used my podcast recording and idea from my group’s radio show project from a few weeks ago. One of the suggestions that I got on that episode was that it would’ve been cool to have included snippets of the Taylor …
This is a podcast episode where my friend Owen and I discuss our love for Taylor Swift and her music. Him and I both have a shared love for Taylor that has been going strong for 10+ years. We spend most of our time hanging out talking about her, …
This remix of a writing assignment has inspired this post.
This morning, I backflipped out of my bed and got ready to start my day. I brushed my teeth, put my contacts in, killed my roommate, and wash my face. After getting dressed, I went into the kitchen to find …
This remix of a writing assignment is the basis of this post. When I thought of the idea of nonconformity, I thought about the song Fifteen by Taylor Swift. I think that this is a great song about the struggles of growing up and entering a new phase in life, …
This assignment comes from this one. Originally, I was going to mix together different Taylor Swift songs, but Youtube to MP3 was not working for me anymore, so I used audio files that I already had on my computer from other projects. For this mashup, I used the songs …

I am using this assignment for my mashup. Instead of a character, I decided to to Taylor Swift album covers over the years. I didn’t include any of the extended edition album covers, but I think the 12 I put do a good job of showing how much she has …

For this assignment, I wanted to build on the video essay assignment that we all did last week, and you can find my video from last week here. I wasn’t super proud of what I made last week, so I wanted to refine and spend more time on creating …
For this assignment, I used this assignment. Originally, I wanted to create a karaoke version of a song. Mostly due to copyright issues that Youtube always brings, but also because I thought it would be more fun. But mostly due to copyright. I was using ClipChamp to make this …
So I wanted to re-do the What I Eat In a Day video that I made last week, and it was based on this assignment from the assignment bank. I got a comment on my original post with some suggestions, which I really appreciate!! So I wanted to take …

After taking History of China with Dr. Fernsebner last semester, I would love to visit China someday. Might not be a great idea to go anytime soon, but Dr. Fernsebner has been there many times and told us some really cool stories …
The first project ideas post I looked through gave me some interesting ideas. First, they were considering doing a map, and I would highly suggest using StoryMapJS if they choose to do that. But the idea of using Minecraft to create a physical/digital setting would be pretty awesome too. I …

I made a short video to remember the Harry Styles concert that I went to in October. I guess it’s more of a 44 second memory. …
When thinking about the meaning of life, one can often turn to Buddhist teachings to understand this “circle of life” that we all experience. I am on a circular journey to try and find the meaning of life through my daily creations.
The first assignment I revised was this Brady Bunch one I made during photo week.
When I first did this project, I really wanted to make a 2020 rendition of the Brady Bunch, but I think I either ran out of time or motivation. So this week I finally put …
I got really inspired in the last two weeks by the group project. I really enjoyed interviewing, editing, and creating a radio show segment. I also really loved the topic of my segment and the conversations I got out of it. For my final project, I am thinking about creating …
On Sunday night I tuned into ds106 radio to listen to my classmate’s radio shows. Due to my concussion, I was only able to stick around for one show. I listened to “Death of a Painter” and was incredibly impressed by it. I love how creative this story was, and …

Over break, I recorded my bumper and commercial and sent them to my group members. I actually really enjoyed making my commercial, and the Freesound website is another great resource to use for this project. Also over break, I wrote out a rough script for my individual section for the …
I feel much better about this project now going into spring break. When I first read about this group project in the beginning of the semester, I was super confused and not excited. But after weeks of working with design and audio, I feel much more confident …
On Sunday I formed my radio show group, and on Wednesday we met over Zoom to discuss our plans for the project. We all agreed that we wanted to create a radio show centered around music, and specifically why us and other people love music. That’s why we are calling …
Reading and reflecting on these videos and articles made me think more about design as a principle. We encounter so much design in our every day lives, but don’t really think about everything that goes into it. I’ve always been interested in the psychology that goes behind the …
