It’s October now. We’ve had three or four full weeks under our belt now and fall is starting to set in. Things are starting to settle finally.
Class this past week was good. I got acquainted with Screencastify and H5E and tried it out. I think I will try to incorporate an interactive video in a future inquiry blog post of mine, but I’ll have to think about how best to do that. For what it was, I felt like I understood how to use the plug-in and the in-class exercise went well.
As far as the inquiry blog post in general go, I am feeling really good about it all! I have been discovering some really cool music through my deep-dive into experimental music. Honestly, I wish I could spend more time just listening and discovering than I do researching artists to include in my posts, but I am enjoying learning about a wide range of artists I might never have listened to otherwise. Of the artists I have come across and discussed so far, I am most interested in Johanna Beyer and Delia Dervyshire as I am really interested in early electronic music production and technology. There have been many other artists I wished to talk about and listen to somewhere in this blog but I am trying to fulfil my original focus while also keeping the blog posts manageable. Some artists, off the top of my head, that I hope to come back to on my own time are Moondog and Sun Ra.
