Participation Update

Sweet Jesus. How did I get myself into this. The first three presentations of the Hypertext Essays in class today sent shivers of mortality down my spine – so much further advanced (both conceptually and technically) than ours. I asked how the essay was weighted (as in, is it more importnt to [...]

Boring

Working on the Hypertext essay design again and I keep changing my mind.. a. I cant find a code which will put a non-tiled, fixed background image on my site b. I can’t decide on the image. At the minute I’m tossing up between ..to compliment the chosen font and format of the home page [...]

Long Time No See

After feeling the guilt of my 5-day binge of non-blogging-related activity, I felt it was high time I sat down and sorted through a bit of my networked stuff. First – the Hypertext Essay! I finally got to sit down with Jo for an extended period of time today and sort out exactly what we are [.[...]

2. Blog Test (Externally Linked Blog Post)

While Facebook seems to be everybody’s favourite passtime (I must admit, the Facebook application is on high rotation on my iPhone in times of extreme boredom, eg. The hour-long train ride to Mum’s), my second most frequented form of Social Networking media is the humble blog – nam[...]

1. Blog Test (Internally Linked Blog Post)

A recurring problem I have faced throughout the discourse of Networked Media has been a difficulty understanding HTML. That being said, in the last two weeks I have really knuckled down, and have excelled leaps and bounds beyond what I was previously capable of. I began by learning some of the Lingo[...]

CODING IS MY BITCH.

After weeks of procrastinating over this HTML essay, God intervened this morning when he flooded the store where I worked. After being advised to stay home by my manager, and after completing several victory laps of my house, I settled in to start designing the Hypertext Essay layout (which we appar[...]

T-minus Four Weeks..

Someone reminded me it was week 9 today and I got theĀ  heebie jeebies. After comparing notes with Jo (and after failing to hear backĀ from Nate re: our group dilemma), and watching Miek’s online presentation, I personally reckon it’d be easiest if we made the homepage quite similar to t[...]

Week 8 Tutorial

Nate is displeased re: bad turnout at lecture. Karla (HTML essay partner) is not here for the several-eth week in a row. Merrr. Blog skills test next week (I am substantially more prepared for this than for the test last week), and the triumphant return of my apparently crap essay. I honestly think [...]

Hypertext Essay?

Hurray! Broadcast Media aka. Soul-drining life-source-sucking nightmare has been completed and submitted. The radio project due in 3 weeks remains untouched but I have faith the Adrien, myself and Garageband will be able to slap something cohesive and awesome together in far less time than what it t[...]
