Today was a very special day because we were on fall break. Which means no classes… which means no people. I went to the convergence center today to be super studious and work on homework and on the way there, to my surprise, I saw NOBODY. It was kind of weird for a Tuesday, but […]

So today when I came back from fall break, I was unpacking all of my clothes and my roommate said that her parents had left something for me. What they had left was a little package of nuts, sweets, and a string.  From my understanding and how my friend explained it, it is a tradition that […]

In this assignment, we were suppose to take a song and using software put the song in reverse and post it on our blog for people to guess what is playing. The process for this assignment was very simple, especially now I know how to use Audacity. I love listening to music so the only […]

After some careful deliberation with my assignment partner, Mike Black, we settled on the idea of a “Do-it-Yourself” type of program with a twist. We would bring together two people from different walks of life, and certainly different financial statuses and see how they work together. Our plan is to add a bit of a comedic […]

Mary Hauntington Bumper For my bumper, I used the following applications: Audacity Voice Changer for Android and the background sound effect from: SoundBible.

My proposed logo is the University of Mary Washington mascot Sammy the Eagle saying into a microphone “tune in to DSMWradio.” I always like these kind of logos that are simple but kind of blunt for what they stand for. In my logo Sammy the Eagle is clearly saying to listen to our radio show. […]
