Week 5 rundown!

My favorite part of this week was EASILY tweeting with the class listening to #DS106Radio! Literally it was histerical. It was so funny my roommates ended up listening to some of the show with me. I missed 5 minutes of it because I ran to the bathroom, lol, but besides that it was SO fun. I was nervous because I thought I may have been tweeting a biiit too much, but then I was like whatever it’s better than tweeting too less. I loved reading what Lauren and Joshua were writing as well. It was such a fun night and an incredibly fun assignment.

Also this was me the whole time:

For the rest of the week, I enjoyed a lot of the audio assigmenets. I actually did the “What song am I humming?” assignment and I had a lot of fun with that. (Even though everyone guessed it right away) I also had fun with the Frequency assignment, although I spent wayyyy too much time listening to everyone else’s recordings. I enjoyed going through them, but I did get a bit overwhelmed because I didn’t want to make my recording boring- I wanted it to be cool and futuristic, which I think I did my best to do.

Overall, I think this week was a lot of fun, but I felt like I wanted to work more on some audio based projects. My resume I made for my character was also a huge highlight for me. I spent a lot of time creating my character and thinking about who I wanted her to be. At first I wasn’t sure if I wanted to make her the office space, but for me making a resume was actually a super productive assignment because it got me to think bigger and deeper about the details of my character. I’m super excited to hear what people think of her, and I enjoyed creating her resume (which may or may not look better than my actual resume lol)

I think this week was a lot of fun! I want to continue to work hard with audio, and I hope we get to live tweet more throughout the semester bc that was literally amazing..

The weekly question was “how are you feeling?” and so far, I am feeling really excited about this class. There’s not many classes you can be creatively challenged by- and this class is for sure something I have been wanting for a while. I feel more creative overall, and I love working with everything digital.
