And the beat goes
by @christinac106 February 12, 2019Audio is a great way to tell a story. Just by hearing a series of sounds it allows the possibility for an individual to draw up an image in their head designed off of what they hear. For my first audio assignment of the week I decided to participate in a three star assignment called […] -

Talk Secret Agent to Me
Everyone talks to themselves and has conversations with themselves. But would you ever record your conversations with yourself? One of this week’s audio assignments tasked us to do just this. Using Audacity or another audio editing software, the assignment asked us to record ourselves speaking in which we are holding down both sides of a […] -

I have many obsessions in my life. Harry Potter…Coffee…Dogs…AND DISNEY!!! To give you some context of my love for Disney, here are some pictures I took from my family’s trip to Disney last year… I may appear like I am a 21-year-old girl in these pictures but don’t be fooled, I am actually basically a […] -
A Very Important Message from the Prince of Nigeria
by @KendallResnick February 11, 2019I’m sure we’ve all received some weird spam, whether it be an urgent email from a fake credit card company, or a job offer for 10k a week.

The Type 1 Diabetic of Fredericksburg
Beverley Hills…Orange County…New Jersey…Atlanta…and now thanks to one of this week’s visual assignments, Fredericksburg! Looking through the audio assignments for this week, the Real Housewives tagline assignment immediately jumped out to me. I hate to admit it, but I am a Real Housewives fanatic. My dad loves to call it ‘trash’ tv, I love to […] -
Radio Bumper
Hey there everyone! I just finished up editing my radio bumper for #DS106Radio. I had some fun doing it, but I wonder if it’ll ever get airtime. I used a air horn to reel in the intro because it is something that is done a lot on the radio channels I listen to. I encountered […] -
A conversation in Italy
Listen to this short audio story with headphones before continuing: Thanks for listening to my short ‘wordless’ story. I consider this to still be my wordless short story– despite the people speaking in Italian; because they provide no actual narration to the story. (That is, unless one of you speaks Italian, in which case, I […] -
Ridgefield Radio Show
by @richelleholnick December 7, 2018For the second part of this story, I created a radio show. Because it’s almost finals week, when I was recording this, I didn’t have anyone available to help me out with a different voice, so I recorded all of the different characters mysel... -

James’ Bumper
by @richelleholnick October 19, 2018I made a funny little bumper in the voice of my character, James. I thought it would be funny to do it in the style of the old Disney Channel bumpers. So I had her doing one of those but then realizing she was actually supposed to say “DS106 radi... -
Forced Collaboration of XXXtentacion, Lil Dicky, Smokepurp and Lil Uzi
For this assignment I had to force several musicians together to create one unified song. I decided I would select my favorite style of music, that being rap, and try to pin artists that typically wouldn’t be together in a song. I ended up choosing the late XXXtentacion and Smokepurp as two artists that would …Continue reading "Forced Collaboration of XXXtentacion, Lil Dicky, Smokepurp and Lil Uzi"

A sick beat it IS!
LOL! Wow, for some reason, this one was much much harder than I thought. The assignment was to come up with a ‘sick beat’ of my own. I used Audacity and literally made one noise with my mouth, tapped on my laptop and made another noise with my lips and let me tell you, trying … -

The Real Characters of DS106 Tagline
by @Tyra13748487 October 12, 2018For this assignment, I had to create a tagline expressing who I am. I chose to create one expressing what my character Deidra the Determinator was like. The tagline is kind of long compared to the taglines that they use for the show Real Housewives but I think it’s ok. It expresses Deidra’s mindset. To … -

It’s going to be a pretty cool show, so […] -

Tounge Twisters!
by @maci_winebarger October 12, 2018Tounge twisters can be so hard! I think there are certain ones that are definitely easier, but if you try to do all of them as fast as possible, you will get tripped up for sure. I wanted to make sure I did a few because they are all relatively short, so I picked 3 […] -
We will, we will….ROCK YOU!
by @maci_winebarger October 12, 2018This is one of my favorite classics, so it was really cool to be able to recrate the beat in our own way. I used Audacity to record myself recreating the beat. I used my keys, a bottle of lotion, and a cup all banged against a table to recreate this sound. I also drew […]
