I really enjoyed Node 2 and I feel like I got a much larger understanding of AI out of it. To pull from my “Impressions on AI” discussion post: On a broad spectrum, I like to use technology as a creative outlet, but I also know I need break from it for my own mental… Continue reading Node 2, I’m Through

Well, I had more than one problem when it came to the dilemma with “The Trolley Problem”. I was able to get FlashPlayer downloaded to my Mac; however, I was unable to get the link in step two to open (whether I tried to drag it, or open it in my browser). However, I still… Continue reading The Trolley Problem(s)

I honestly think… and I’m weirded out by the fact that I’m saying this… I may actually not hate coding. WHAT?! I KNOW. Before this semester started, coding was quite honestly one of the scariest things for me. I’ve always done well in school, and quite honestly I’ve never really struggled in the classroom. However,… Continue reading Coded by Cailyn

September 8, 2021

“The Soft Truth” by Leigh Alexander faces the hard truth of our currently technologically obsessed society: we are constantly chasing the endorphins released from the digital world. The narrator turns to satisfying videos for an escape of the anxieties of the real world–and honestly it’s terrifying. Sure, I don’t go to satisfying videos every time… Continue reading The Hard Truth

September 8, 2021

I’m not going to lie… coding is not coming naturally to me. Usually, I’m good with puzzles. I have my final picture, there are a lot of separate pieces, and I test the placements until I have my final product. However, I feel like in coding I don’t have my final picture. I’m putting together… Continue reading Just Getting Started…

If I’m being honest with myself, I wasn’t much of a fan of the Daily Create prompts this week. Usually when I keep up with them, if I see one I like, I will do it, and if I see one I don’t, then I’ll wait. But my last two Daily Creates for this week… Continue reading More Daily Creates!
