ten things I've learned so far

 

 

This mini-project was our first in webaudio, and so it was also our first taste of freestyle deadlines. We created the list in english, a list of ten mottos or little pieces of wisdom we have accumulated in our lives so far. Some of these have stories behind them, such as "always read the label before putting it in your hair." This came from a theater friend of mine, who accidentally used hair glue instead of hair gel before a show, and had immense diffficulty getting it out again. But I also think it can be applied to a broader meaning, in that you should use caution before doing something you're not willing to risk damaging. Putting this together I used garageband to mix the music and to add the photos to the podcast.

 

  1. you always need a balnce to be happy
  2. its harder to know yourself than you think
  3. appreciate the flaws as much as the features
  4. if we cant laugh at it, we can't take it seriously
  5. learn a song and play it well
  6. I still consider pluto my favorite planet
  7. given a and b, pick c
  8. a friend is omeone who knows you so you don't have to
  9. always readthe label before putting it in your hair
  10. the original is always better

 

In creating this podcast, I had to create intro music to match using garageband, and as my first time creating music i was overwhelmed by all of the choices. The music I created was relatively simple, using mostly only guitar and piano, my two favorite instruments. The volume levels fade in and out, like a constant change. My pictures serve to illustrate each item on my list, I also made sure I included some onf my favorite things, like calvin and hobbes to illustrate satarizing thingsin order to take them seriously.
