For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/the-family-table/ ) I had to do a recording of what my familys typical dinner conversations would be like. But, I had to act as everyone in my family. First I have myself talking. I was big into field hockey in highschool and always had practices. My dad is so deaf so I tried to have him saying what a lot. My mom is a teacher at our middle school (7th AND 8th grade) and she always has the wierdest stories from her class. My sister is only a year older than mebut she is big into anatomy and the medical field. Then there is my dad, who is always saying what and cant hear anything we are saying, and loves the jets and every year he says they are going all the way. This ismy crazy family, and a little bit of what our dinner table talk is like. 
I recorded, and uploaded this from the soundcloud website. This is worth 2 stars

Family table

For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/over-dramatic-reading/ ) I found the lyrics to my favorite song currently 22 by taylor swift (http://www.directlyrics.com/taylor-swift-22-lyrics.html ) I recorded the song on to soundcloud and just read the lyrics. This was actually kind of difficult because I kept wanting to just sing the whole song! It sounds so wierd just being read normally, like im reading a boring book or something! This was worth 2 stars

over dramatic reading

For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/music-mashup/ ) I did a mashup of The twilight zone theme song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVSRm80WzZk) and Madonnas song 4 minutes featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHHUhcV2eVY&feature=artistob&playnext=1&list=TLusySCX_04k4)
I chose these two songs, because I wanted to do something to represent the Twilight zone series episode time enough at last. The twilight zone is just an amazing instrumental with great build up, and the theme of the episode was that he did not have enough time - but time is not everything. I picked Madonnas song because she also has great music and I thought I could put them together well. 
I used Audacity audio editing to edit this piece and I tried really hard to blend the different pieces of the songs together to make it seem like one whole song. I was able to get out all the other noises and silences and parts I didnt want.
This was worth 3 Stars 

Twilight zone and madonna mashup

For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/poetry-reading/) I was to find a poem with a meaning and read it. I picked this poem (http://www.booksie.com/poetry/poetry/lehi_girl72509/judging-others) Because it has a great message. Do not judge others! This goes great with the theme from the twilight zone episode the eye of the beholder. Everyones perspective is different so dont judge other people!
I Recorded and edited this using Audacity just by cutting out parts where i messed up and starting over.
This was worth 1.5 stars

Poetry reading

For this daily create (http://tdc.ds106.us/) , we were first supposed to write our own haiku that had to do with the twilight zone and then do a dramatic reading of the poem. A Haiku is a poem where in the first and 3rd line there are 5 syllables and the middle line there are 7.  I am not very good at poems, and reducing things to a certain word count, or in this case syllables, so it was a little difficult, but I think it came out not too bad! I recorded this in soundcloud.

Twilight zone Haiku

For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/row-row-polyphony/) I was to make a polyphony of a song. That just means, play a song and then time it right so that another group(or start playing the song again) starts over to they interlap. 
I think this actually ended up really cool. I picked a christmas song, because I mean, who doesnt like christmas music, and I felt like this would be a good song to do this too. I edited this in audacity and I think I was able to get most of the mouse clicking out this time!
This assignment was worth 3.5 Stars

Santa clause polyphony

For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/one-question/) I had to ask many different people the same question. The question that I asked was "If you could go anywhere in the world and money wasnt an issue, where would you go and why" I love the range of different answers that I got, and the different types of people that I asked. I recorded everyones answers seperately on Audacity, then put them all together and edited it in audacity as well. This was worth 3 stars

One Question

For this assignment (http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/sound-effects-story/) I was to make a story using only 5 sound effects and it had to be less than 30 seconds. For some reason, the first thing to pop into my head was a car accident. So that is exactly what I did, I found the sounf effects on www.grsites.com/sounds/ and edited and put all of them together using Audacity. This was worth 4 stars

Sound effects story

For the end of my DS106 Course, I had to do an audio reflection on the course. I had a great, but hard time completing this course, but overall, it was a GREAT experience and I have no regrets!
