Since we have no class on monday i expect that you will DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL pd-extended for your computer. BLOG with some insight on some of the topics i suggested. Steve Reich and Phase Music Phillip Glass and Music with changing parts Terry Riley and Minimal Music [IN C ] and Rainbow in Curved Air La Monte Young [DRONES] You are also expected to make at least 3 compositions using LOOPS that you either download from Freesond or visit one of the two sites for REMIX http://www.bush-of-ghosts.com/remix/bush_of_ghosts.htm http://remix.nin.com/ Make sure in your AUDACITY PROJECTS you use 1.) Speeding sounds up 2.) Slowing sound down 3.) An effect [REVERB, EQ, COmpression] 4.) Explore NORMALIZATION to -6db as we discussed in class 5.) make a cut, chop something and re-arrange it with audacity 6.) try phasing things **remember my examples about out of phase! Also please go and explore and DOWNLOAD an .mp3 from UBUWEB and convert it to a .wav or .aiff with ITUNES. Try to weave these things
No, I don't want to date your avatar. You may be beautiful or handsome, but I'll never see your real face. And, if I fall in love with you, I'll have to keep paying a monthly subscription fee to keep our love alive. And, seriously, pushing a key to kiss you, just won't do it for me! Sorry, avatar, I'm going to have to pass.

Second Life is a tool for rapid prototyping scripting, code, 3D architecture and design. It is easiest to test and try it with a 3 button mouse. You will make yourself crazy if you try it only with a Laptop Touch Pad.
ReplyDeleteDo we make our Avatars everything that we are not?
I gave mine hair, I made my first SL Avatar a woman and people got offended because somehow i was being "dishonest" by pretending to be a woman?? No one seemed to mind when i was a dragon what my gender was.
I don't think Felicia Day, the star of this video, has any trouble finding those who want to date her or her avatar. She is extremely talented, and has been able to develop her own creative projects outside of the typical channels, find corporate backing and distribution for them, and retain the intellectual rights to her work- something few if any have done before. She also stars in the hilarious Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog. (see other posting).
