My Life Through Your Eyes

Archive Project

For my archive project, it was on the Webrecorder.io and it was towards my obsession of a media marker known as Nicholas Sparks. I love to read which is why I am an English major and why I chose him as my obsession. Yes, he is an author who writes love story, but he has a way of creative things and making them real. He has been writing for about 20 years and just celebrated that. He has a way with words and makes to think what he is thinking. Sparks bring you into a whole new world of imagination. 

With the archive project, we are looking at Nicholas Sparks and getting to know him better and see why he is one of my obsessions. The archive project allows you to see what I found about him. You get to look at his website he has and see how it shown. Then with the website you get to look at his biography and get to know him a little more. For example, where he lives, all the books he has written,and the books he wrote. With this, any information you find has been saved while your recording. Then we went to Wikipedia to find more information about Sparks because his website only gives a taste of what he is about. With Wikipedia, you can see how old he is, if he has any family, any children, if he is married and more. After that, we went to google and looked at images to see what he looks like. The images allow you to really see what he looks like and gives you many options. Then we went to to Barnes and Noble to see all the books he has written with the little summary about what the book is going to be about. We particularly look at the book The Choice because it is one of my favorite books and it was just made into a movie. 

Then we go to the twitter, login to your account, and we look at his page. We search his twitter page and look at what he tweets and see what his twitter page is about. Obviously, it is going to be about all his books and anything he has coming up. Then we go to YouTube and look at a video where he does a interview. The interview is about his books and how he comes up with the ideas. Where he gets his inspiration from and more. After that, we go to his Facebook fan page. See what he posts and anything other people post. Then we got to my email to see the narrative that I made for the recording on google docs. Last but not least, we go to Tumblr and look at the post called archive project. 

This project is pretty cool because while your searching everything is getting recorded and doesn't get lost. You don`t have to retrace your steps because everything is rerecorded right there for you. You get to look at anything you want while recording and it will be saved. People should know more about this and can actually use it for projects. This can help anybody get the information they need. It is a different way of communication and it tells a story while you are recording.

Locative Media Project Reflection

Our locative media project was a scavenger hunt based around the campus of Molloy College using the app Klikaklu. I thought this was cool project because it was interactive and you were able to go from place to place looking for clues to get you to the next clue. It gets your mind going and allows you to predict whats going to happen next to give you the next clue or hint if you really needed it. I like that you had to take pictures of the object you found so it gets everyone involved in the game. The concept of using paintings around the campus was a cool idea because it was something different. It made the game a little bit harder and more interesting because people don`t think paintings around campus when talking about Molloy. We were different from everyone else making the game as well. Everyone did stuff that was related to Molloy Life and incorporating that into their game. We on the other hand did something different.

With using the painting as the things you have to find, it made the players really think about what the clues was talking about. The clues were a little tricky, but that`s what we wanted. We wanted you to think about it, understand what we were talking about and asking you what we wanted you to find. It was a pretty cool concept to me and I thoroughly enjoyed created this game.   

The group that worked with for the project made the game that much easier. We all contributed to the game, bounced off ideas to each other, and everyone did there part that was needed of them. It was easy to work with everyone because everyone got along with each other. So, that was a plus because if no one gets along everything fails and breaks apart. When one of the people in the group needed help with something there was always someone to help you out.

Non- Linear Plot Structure

 just love Nicholas Sparks so much, can never go without crying.

My favorite book and movie of Nicholas sparks is walk to remember.

With all of his books, there is a rollercoaster of emotions that come along with it. 

Nicholas sparks books make me believe in true love and happiness exist whether it be in the movie walk to remember or the choice.

In the end all of Nicholas Sparks come out with a happy ending so therefore I am a happy person.

My Summer 2016

My summer was one to remember for me for many different reasons. I was able to enjoy my summer more this year then in past summers. That`s because many different things happened through the summer that made it unforgettable. I got to go on my first vacation with my best friends not family, go to the beach, and much more. 

This summer I went to a couple of amusement parks this summer. I went to six flags a handful of times and dorney park a couple of times. Both amusement parks were a lot of fun. I am an adrenaline junkie so I was right in my element. I go on every roller coaster at least twice maybe three times, but it all depends on how long the lines are. My favorite roller coaster at six flags is King da Kung and at dorney park I didn't really have a favorite cause I loved them all.

As well as going to amusement parks this summer, I went to Lake George for my best friends 21st birthday. It was a vacation I will never forget cause we did many activities while we were there. My friends and I went on a boat ride, went to haunted houses, went to the beach, went parasailing, and so much more. Since we had such a good time there we are going to make the effort to go every year around the same time, to make a tradition out of it..
