I couldn’t help myself when I saw an assignment that involved writing your own theme song. I chose to write my own theme from scratch. I used FL Studio to recreate something I had already written on my bass. The long winded way to do this assignment …

For this assignment you had to make a song 800% slower.

I used the song Gold by Kiiara. After slowing it down the song was thirty minutes long, so I had to shorten it down to fifteen minutes to get it to download.

The end effect of slowing the song …

My digital Media class will be creating a radio show this semester. My professor has asked for my thoughts on topics. I’m not very good at thinking of general ideas or topics because I am honestly more of a detail person, so here is something very specific we could do …

This week was another busy one. We focused on audio, which is probably the thing I needed the most work on. We had more stars assigned this week which kept us even busier, but in the long run I got it all done. I wrote a blog post that explains …

This assignment was a fun one. The assignment is worth three and a half stars, which puts me at eleven and a half stars. The idea is simple, use sound effects to tell a story. I may have bent the rules a little bit by having a sound effect of …

For the next assignment bank thing I chose to do, I had to add music to a video to create different emotions.

This video is sinful.

I am so sorry.

For this assignment you had to take fragments of a song (under one second) and put them together. Then people try to guess what all the songs are. (If you don’t know all the songs there’s a list below).

Hopefully this video stays up since I’ve had a lot of …

Sound plays an important role in telling a story. The wrong ambiance can completely destroy the coherence of a scene. For example, a midnight scene on a highway would make absolutely no sense with rain forest ambiance playing in the background. In my digital media class, we looked at this …

This week I tried to be a good student for once and do my assignments early. It felt weird actually getting my work done early. And by that I meant some of the work. I was still crunched on time towards the end, however, I had a little extra time …

For this assignment you had to make a story using at least 5 different songs.

Took me almost an hour to finally get it to post somewhere (which ended up being YouTube). Ignore the black nothingness of a video I had to keep on there so it would upload. *What …

This assignment was chosen by our Digital Media professor to complete – we were asked to chose 6 songs and 1 clip from each song that was less than a second. We had to place each clip side by side and publish it and see who could guess the most …

Once again, back at it with the assignment bank thingy stuff. This next one I chose was a music mashup which is pretty self explanatory but for those of you who don’t know – its mashing 2 or more songs.. together. Shocking I know.

Anyways this assignment was worth 3 …

This weekend, I completed an assignment in the #ds106 assignment bank – The Reverse Audio Quiz.

For this assignment we were to choose a song to reverse completely and then post it to see who all can guess what song it is

Here is mine:

This is my response to the Sound Scapes assignment, worth 4.5 stars. I had to create a piece of sound using only “found sounds.” “Found sounds” is a very nebulous term, so I interpreted it to mean “sounds from objects I found around the house.” I went ahead and decided …

Well a good one that’s on my mind right now would be copyright infringement, and how my content got blocked from soundcloud just because it sounded similar to a song I’ve never even heard of. Other topics….. how about everyone’s favorite candy, and how they’re wrong because it’s not reeces? …

Here’s me in 30 seconds for the audio assignment.

…

I love me some Johnny Cash, and I love anything that makes me laugh, so “A boy named Sue” is great song in my eyes

…

Here’s a little taste of my southern accent for the speech of the west audio assignment

…

So, I had a nice little story all done up, and soundcloud automatically removed it, claiming it was copyrite infringement. It’s under review now, and should be up as soon as they approve it(I took all the sounds from freesound.org so there shouldn’t be a problem). I’ll post it when …

This is my short and sweet take on a radio bumper for ds106 radio. I’m from Texas, so I just had to find a way to throw that in there!

…

This is my response to the Sound Effects Stories assignment, worth 3.5 stars. I had to merge various sound effects to create a story. Here, I tell the story of a Chihuahua who performs at a comedy club and is quite loved by the crowd. Most of the sounds are …

For this assignment, Teenage Angst, you were supposed to read an old diary or journal entry you wrote when you were a teenager. I mean I still am a teenager…but I did one from when I was 16 years old. In this assignment you were also supposedly supposed to …

In this assignment, The Contest That Nobody Could Win, we were meant to “Take six very short fragments (less than one second each) from six different songs and ensemble them into a single piece.” Since I wanted to use songs that were already on my phone, AND that most …

This is my response to the Being a Music Producer assignment, worth 4.5 stars.  The assignment was to record myself playing a musical instrument, and then record a second musical instrument over the top of it. I picked bass and melodica. I decided to push this significantly farther than the …

Our networking class completed a lab that discussed the OSI Model and its purpose. We filled out a worksheet and it will be discussed below:

Objective:

Discussing and understanding the difference between the TCP/IP model and OSI Model and what each are used for.

Questions:

1. If we already had …

This is my response to the Create a Radio Bumper assignment. I had to create a short radio bumper for the Ds106 radio station. When I hear the term “bumper,” the first thing I think of is cars, so it only made sense to base the bumper around that. I …
