This week, similar to last week, was not filled with many big failures! Although, I ran into some small road-blocks regarding the required readings for class. While I thoroughly enjoyed both readings and their concepts on the future of humanity with respect to technology, I had a bit of a tough time reading the MIT…

My flog of the week isn’t filled with many failures. In fact, this week was our screenings for Hack #4, which I had a great time with. I was super proud of my remix and I was really excited to share with the class what I had made. I wanted to do my music piece…

This week wasn’t filled with too many failures until Thursday (yesterday’s class period). During class, we had a workshop day in which we began our remixes that are due on Tuesday. I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do and which rules to break, so I was feeling quite prepared (remixing…

This week wasn’t particularly filled with many failures, at least any academic ones pertaining to class.

I figured this would be a playful intervention as Logic Pro is solely used for creating audio and music. Within the software, there are spaces known as…

This week, we looked at everyone’s Hack #2 projects. This show and tell presentations have quickly become a favorite of mine for the class as I love seeing other people’s creative ideas, productions, and connections to the course. I particularly enjoyed the Hack #2 projects as it made me realize the more sinister, underlying nature…
