    A New Approach

    by
    This week, I wanted to reimagine two pieces of work that were very different from one another: a graphic design for a nonprofit organization and a story made from every letter of the alphabet. Going into these originally, I had no comparisons that I could make, but revisiting them allows

    Time to Brainstorm

    by
    This semester has been a very creative one across most of my classes. I’m learning to code in Python, which innately has a creative element to it. I’ve focused in on the communication that takes place when working with small groups to find creative solutions to problems. My digital fluency,

    Final Project Ideas

    by
    Wade, Katie and I have started discussing final project ideas and are just in the brainstorming phase. We are thinking of a video format for the project and want to include the theme of joy of creativity, which will definitely be exhibited by our work! The assignment says the project should be something that matters […]

    Stories Created from Dailies

    by
    We never knew what was going to happen in our lives. Some young people, early in high school and after, had it all planned out. They set themselves on a trajectory with a plan of education, training, family, maybe the military, where they planned to live and what hobbies they would pursue. And then came […]

    Connecting the Daily Creates

    by
    Ah yes, I was in a band. 3 quarters of a century ago. We took classic poems, Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, you know, the classics, we took their poems, and we took the lines, and we made them new. I think my favorite was a ballad we made out of “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost. It made the woods seem like a temptress distracting a traveler from his mission. Those were the days…

    Project ideas!

    by
    I want to make some short intro music for a radio story. After doing this last project, I think that I enjoy making audio recordings, which will allow me to learn more about recording with audacity. I need to start working on some script for an original story, and I am curious if anyone else would want to work together on another radio broadcast like the last group project? Perhaps this project could turn into some sort of YouTube video. Does anyone know how to make digital animations? EDIT Mar 16th So after talking to some of the people in…

    Project Ideas

    by
    The project idea I had, I don’t think will really work for this assignment, so that will have to wait another day. For this project, I love doing tragedy or a style that I have dubbed “fluff falling apart,” namely something that seem...

    My Brush with Task Specific Dystonia

    by

    The Glitch Task specific dystonia or focal dystonia is a condition so feared among performing artists that it is rarely spoken of. That is because it has been a career ender for many accomplished musicians. It is a neurological problem that is only dimly understood but is most commonly triggered by over practicing coupled with […]

    On Step Closer

    by
    March 15, 2022. My new Garmin InReach Mini 2 arrived today, representing an expensive but necessary piece of insurance for my upcoming adventure. On Anticosti Island I will be hundreds of miles from the nearest cell tower. Or even from the nearest pers...

    Chicken on the Wall

    by
    March 14, 2022. This is a picture of a chicken we bought at the Victoria Craft Fair back when we first moved into our house in Moncton. It has hung in our kitchen ever since, first there, and now here, and to me it signifies a sense of permanence and p...

    Boshi’s Island

    by
    Hey everyone, I decided to work on another chrome lab song this week because I enjoyed this assignment! https://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/chrome-music-labs/ For this one, I decided to stick with the default instrument, the Marimba. The Marimba is a fun instrument with a wide range of notes laid out in the style of a piano. The notes sound different based on wood or synthetic material, but they often take on a fun and distinct tone. They are also an enjoyable instrument to play with others! As I was making this song, it reminded me of a particular character and the games that they…

    Paint Knife in a New Light

    by
    I used to listen to no podcasts, then my roommate recommended me the Magnus Archives and that is the only one that I have really listened to, well, besides the Bald and the Beautiful, but that is a whole other thing.  I am not the most knowledgeable on podcasts, but as of recently, I have […]
