For Thursday’s daily create, we were supposed to make a picture of what ds106 would look like in deep space. I wanted to show the students flying away with the school. The school is at the bottom and everyone from the class is going on a journey with the school.

So. Big news, my group decided to change our idea completely. Mainly because we have a time-traveling character, and the original idea we just couldn’t make work. So we’re now doing my original idea…… a Clue! radio show!! It’s based off of Clue the movie,with all of our characters being blackmailed etc, etc. Obviously we … Continue reading Mid-Week Radio Show Progress →

The second daily create I chose for this week was to create an emojination (2/25/15).  The assignment entailed choosing 5 emojis and using them to create a unique story.

Day 1 Today, for me, was quite eventful.  I went to school for my three classes then came home to find that Megan had started the scripting for our show on our new Radio Show Script google doc!  She made the whole layout of the broadcast, which I must say was quite awesome and made … Read More

Last week in my meeting with Niffer we talked about where to find gold paint, finding marble examples, and finding out how to wallpaper fabric to a wall. Below are the example of marble I thought fit her idea: light grey with maybe a touch of gold. It was difficult finding lighter marbles with the…

So this week was a little different than most weeks. Instead of focusing on a new topic all together we used this week to develop more skills in editing and developing audio. For starters, we all grouped up into our DS106 radio groups. I chose the “Noir not the father” group. The group plans on … Continue reading Weekly Summary

Wow, college really hit me this week. I’m a freshman, and so far college hasn’t been too hard, just a paper or two every month. This week, just sucked.

So for another three stars I decided to do the “make it slower” assignment. I had a lot of fun with this assignment and ultimately was really satisfied with the end result. The example given on the noir site by artist Nick Pittsinger was really amazing. I honestly never thought Justin Beiber could be enjoyable no … Continue reading Make it slooowwwweeeeerrrrrrr

Radio Show Promo: the title of our radio show is Inside talking starring Lena Meyers. I think the black and white and plainness of the logo adds to the mystery of what the show will be about.

Before and after picture- For this assignment I wanted to drastically alter one of my favorite beer bottles. My idea from the start was to change the bottle into more of an hour glass shape and invert the colors. I am not too great with photoshop yet but I think the end result was close … Continue reading Daily Create

Commentary: Here is a logo that I have designed for our radio show Inside Talking. Since we decided to go down the route of hosting a talk show inspired by the Today Show, I thought it would be pretty cheeky to create a logo that imitates such quality. Don’t Worry, no copyright laws were broken … Continue reading Inside Talking Logo →

Sometimes everyone needs to just wind down and relax from time to time. We all have our variations on taking a break. If you are someone who is intrigued by the allure of the wine community or an individual deeply […]
