Recorded Sounds

Below are my three favorite 30 second recordings. The first two are snippets from The Social Network, which received a well-deserved Oscar for Best Original Score in 2010, and the third is a recording taken while typing and browsing the internet.

1. Social Network


2. Social Network, Rowing Scene


3. Typing


The next two sounds come from the final version of my video triptych and are iconic. The crunching of garlic bread and exceedingly familiar glug of pouring a glass of wine.

4. Garlic Bread


5. Wine

YouTube Mixer

Here is a screenshot of the absolute final edition of my YouTube Mixer, "Breakfast at Emma's". The videos were edited with Sony Vegas over several hours. It was inspired by my unwavering love of all things breakfast.

Reading: Manovich

1. I like the idea that cinema is considered the pioneer of "multimedia". This type of media has changed drastically since its invention and has made leaps and bounds over the years (think of the contrast between silent films and something like, Transformers). If cinema is considered the original form of "multimedia", where will the field be in five, ten, or even 100 years? How is cinema going to change in our lifetime?

2. Near the end, the reading discusses interactivity with media users. In the analog world of books and hard copies, the reader is given a specific and singular form of media and information; however, in the world of digital media, the author states that users can generate their own, individualized form of media with the use of hyperlinks. How does this change the way that we receive or perceive information? What does the implementation of customized media mean for artists and how they will adapt to the digital mindset?
