    I Canā€™t Feel My Legsā€¦

    by
    I think that the creators chose audio as the medium because it gives the audience a greater sense of context to what is going on in the message. The way someone projects their voice through the audio messages tells you whats going on. The crowd-sourced audio does a great job telling the post-apocalyptic story because …

    Play DJ & Make a Song I’ve created several songs, but never posted any publicly. Here’s the first! Let’s make it go viral (psych) – I hope you enjoy:   Behind the Process Not the first song I’ve made, but probably one of the quickest I’ve turned out. I used FL Studio to produce it, […]

    Wool: Sounds From the Silo

    by
    Create a Place Listen to be transported into Hugh Howey’s world of Wool. These sounds emulate a multi-level society that survives underground in a giant vertical silo, all floors connected by one spiraling metal staircase.   Behind the Scenes I knew the silo would be an interesting choice because of the metal, its vertical layout, […]

    Fictional Nuclear Emergency Broadcast

    by
    My Frequency 2156 Submission I decided to emulate a military emergency broadcast for our Frequency 2156 world’s radioactive state:   Behind the Scenes I wrote up a script to read and recorded my audio using an external USB microphone into Audacity. From there, I modulated my voice to sound radio-like by following this unprofessional, but […]

    Introducing James Icarus

    by
      The Observer Ever since James was young, he was obsessed with spy movies. 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. Reading and playing copious amounts of video games let him experience many […]

    My Radio Transmission From Cape Town, Africa!!!! Frequency 2156

    by
      As a digital story I feel this website Frequency 2156  nailed the digital story aspect.  The multiple different audio files from numerous amounts of individuals help to paint a picture of what is going on within the individuals and what is going on around them.  Each audio file from different parts of the world show …

    Considering Audioā€¦

    by
    The concept behind co-imagining is amazing to me. Forming that intimate connection with someone that you’re not in physical contact with by using the human voice shows a unique relationship dynamic between people. He compared this relationship to him painting a picture but the audience is holding the paint brush. This was the statement that …

    Story Behind Marcus Hodgesā€¦

    by
    My character’s name is Marcus Hodges, and has a history for not following directions and creating his own rules at almost any cost. He was always the smartest one in every school he attended, so he became bored with the standard way things took place. He had a knack for creating drama in some way, …

    Carson Gordon: Character Resume

    by
    When trying to figure out my character I wanted someone who was tough  in the face of danger, and had a skill set that matched this toughness.  It took me awhile to try to figure out my characters skill set as I didn’t want my character to be unhelpful in the fight against the Zombies.  …

    Radio is not Deadā€¦.It is very much still Alive!!!!!!

    by
    I would say that I listen to audio almost everyday whether it be the radio, Pandora while I work out, or talk shows on the radio.  But to that extend I have very limited knowledge of what takes places behind the scences behind the microphones.  I tend to listen to more of the early morning …

    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 […]
