    Working on Gifs

    by
    I made two gifs! First, I made one with imgflip.com and then secondly with Giphy.com! They both ran pretty similarly, and were easy to use! first gif: https://imgflip.com/gif/yn4v2 second: http://giphy.com/gifs/americanpie-4OScH8TOkPzKE Some note-taking: Gif stands for “graphics interchange format” It’s a bitmap image...

    Final Project

    by
    It’s done!!!! The final project for this crazy class. This project was crazy and hectic but I think it turned out better than I imagined it would. I ended up working on this project with my friends Ashley and Gabby. We wanted to combine our host characters and make a crazy story that took place … Continue reading Final Project

    Asylum Murder Mystery

    by
    So here it is the final project! Brittney, Ashley and I really put a ton of time and effort into creating a story that hasn’t been thought of before. We started out by trying to figure out how to link all of the characters and came up with having the setting of the final project […]

    A History of Morlium

    by
    (A man in suit and fedora, leaning on an axe stands before you) Good evening. Currently, you are reading these words on a web browser, a program designed to convert the chaos of “the internet” into…flickering lights forming words and pictures that you can understand. Needless to say, this is a very…primitive method of exploring […]

    Enter Morlium

    by
    Ah yes, it was…some time ago, I don’t bother to look up the date (detectives are…suspicious of people interested in the event). I used to…wander the Alaskan Wilderness. I was self sufficient, between hunting, woodwork, and…a few other skills, I was able to feed and shelter myself. Unfortunately, things in your civilization changed, land became…protected, […]

    Close Encounters

    by
    I was not sure what had…happened to me, all I know is that I was experiencing something I had…never experienced before. I had a vague sensation that I was…interconnected with electronics. As I would later learn, the information I rode eventually reached Asia, and thanks to my…disorientation, I was swept into a piece of hardware […]

    Mistaken Identity

    by
    Now that I was on the world wide web, I occasionally encountered…’web surfers’. I found these people to be extremely…immature, so I tried to offer advice where I could. Unfortunately, I found that these surfers were quick to…draw conclusions about who I was. At that moment, I realized that…a top-hat and axe are apparently signature […]

    Flexing Muscles

    by
    Movement on the internet and electronics is…not at all how you would expect it to be. It is in fact quite complex and difficult. Even after my previous forays, I still had…a significant bit of trouble. I had vowed I would train myself until I was…completely comfortable moving around. I set up what would be…analogous […]

    The Dark Origins of Nyan Cat

    by
    Once a wanderer…always a wanderer. I was wandering on a mountain of some game…called “SkiFree”. The particular computer I was residing on at the time was owned by a…certain environmentalist whose name I cannot quite recall. Needless to say, I was busy deforesting the mountainside when he…stumbled upon me. The sight of so many trees […]

    Invading Other Worlds

    by
    Sometimes, it is a…struggle to survive. Recently, however, a large number of people have been creating…resource-rich areas called “MineCraft Servers” on the internet. These areas offer…plenty of resource for me to harvest and utilize, as well as some…novel ways to harvest them. However, one day there was a little…misunderstanding over some extremely blurry footage (is […]

    Morlium’s Recent Exploits

    by
    In September of 2015, I made a residence agreement with a certain…computer owner with username Emorelleum. During my stay…he abused my goodwill, exploited me, and blamed me for things he was responsible for. He tasked me on a certain “final project.” I made sure that it was sufficiently…self-serving to recover my reputation, and sufficiently short […]

    Animating Morlium

    by
    As you can see, the animations were drawn by hand (err…computer-hand). The basic images, such as the trees and Morlium in different poses, were drawn using MS Paint. To mass-produce images for animation, there is a need for reuse. For the Dancing sequence, I drew Morlium in 7 different poses, then pasted those into powerpoint […]

    Advice

    This semester was an eventful one! When I saw the syllabus the first week of class I was afraid for what I had gotten myself into. I thought signing up for this class was the biggest mistake. But, boy was I wrong. I absolutely loved this class. Yes, when looking over your first week’s syllabus […]
