This is my final post for the ct101 digital storytelling class and it is bittersweet.

I have enjoyed the class, especially in relation to other classes but in the what is my opinion the more important later weeks I was missing a few classes which made it harder for my website.

I will work on my website even after I submit this post as I truly do think it a powerful asset to have I just wish I didn’t have any distractions from the class and could’ve come every day but things happen and I still tried my best to make things the best I could’ve.

I did post the midterm assignment https://ct101.commons.gc.cuny.edu/middy-times-assignment-6/

and also thought I was doing good and have made sure I did all the assignments since then even though they are later than most(I am a chronic procrastinator)

Still getting to the finish line tho no matter what 🙂

As well as past that finish line to keep my website up and hopefully learn more about it

As far as what grade I’ve earned I really don’t know what to give myself as grading is a hard thing to do as there is much to take into consideration but I’ve done the assignments and regardless of the grade I think I’ve at least learned how to incorporate all these various forms of media into blog posts, my website as well as getting a free year from reclaim hosting so no matter what I am happy with the outcome but in the midterm, I said about a B so I will stick with that.

If you wish to see my past posts as well as my website I will hyperlink everything below hope next semester is great for whoever reads this<3

Assignment#10 Cross Posting

My site is slowly getting more and more in depth with errors here and there but I have managed to create a blog post on there for the first time which can be found at the link

Welcome

In my last post I did talk about how i had almost immediately without thinking changed the theme not even realizing it was more meant for this

Despite that I think I have found a theme to stick with named “Hugo WP”

in addition to the theme I have found I am using this assignment to showcase my pages as this will be what im trying to focus on to set the streamlined format of my website

As for right now I am liking how the way its going I just wish I had more to offer to the site itself.

To start I am really liking how this feels as of right now

I have made websites when I was younger but I feel like they have never been as in-depth as the potential I have from here.

Well, I was looking for a unique domain name but my name Anthony is quite common. Despite that, I usually use my initials aje for usernames and my online presence so I went into this looking to incorporate them into my domain name.

aje.com would be great but it is taken as well as the other variants of it.

ajerecords.com is available which is something I am leaning toward but the one that I found from godaddy.com is iamaje.com which is available and I think is more versatile for me.

From reading it out loud and trying different options i really have grown fond of iamaje and am hopefully sticking with it.

Based on my purely 100 percent unbiased opinion I am doing great in ct101 and have retained a decent bit of post creation to try and keep my posts more natural and smoothed out in addition to increasing my general technical knowledge.

As far as my own performance I think I’m a good poster even tho I’m not the most punctual and see myself in the grade B range because I do try my best on my posts even tho they are late and I am antisocial so I don’t get too many comments are comment much myself.

Thanks to this class I do now know just how much money is in the cybernetic world.

I definitely do think my posts have gradually become more entertaining as I have tried to be more like myself in them where I joke often.

I don’t believe there are any assignments I am missing other than #4 as I didnt see enough in my posts archive and I do not really comment often im just not a super social person but i rarely do get comments so it works out. This also coincides to class as I like to just sit by myself not saying much because Im more of an observer first.

If you wish to observe my previous posts I will supply the links below.

A page of myself Assignment #5

A Page of Myself

Immediately when given the option to create something public, especially with having the chance to show off pieces of myself my narcissistic tendencies kicked in.

I created a website to basically be a thumbnail of who I am and what I’m passionate about currently in my life.

Basketball is and has been the biggest passion in my life for a while now which is why it’s a larger part of the site as a whole.

After the woman has successfully unspoken rizzed you into clicking on the link for my website you should have seen how the site just showed a base layer of myself as well as me trying to expand my public presence which is something I usually do with all my public creations to keep a web of myself ultimately.

I think this is a good prototype and a slight taste for my idea for the more formal website we will eventually create where I will try to make it more brand-like to sell myself in that way but I am happy with this first stage.

Do you believe memes are apart of art?

Since the internet has a lot of people often very opinionated you can form your own thoughts similar to how this article gave both povs.

In my own opinion memes are undoubtedly forms of art as you need to think and come up with something funny interesting and appealing to a niche minority but more so life imitates art and vice versa.

This picture is a great example of how a point in time of our lives will be cemented for a long time due to memes and being portrayed past just technological means.

Similar to more mainstream versions of art there are a variety of options when creating memes as its based on the communities you are apart of as well as context and sense of humor.

This might be more your style or maybe you prefer the nuked style.

Regardless of your opinion our meme preference I have to say memes are definitely art pieces regardless of effort needed or style because they make me laugh and are better than that banana with duct tape.

My CT101 Exp

I was interested in taking CT101 because Communications technology is my minor and I’ve always loved technology.

So far the class has piqued my interest starting with the first day as it came to seem like a realistic class unlike some of my other classes that have unrealistic and an overall annoying, forced learning environment.

I can’t wait to learn more about this class because so far I feel like I will actually utilize the information. In my opinion definitely more valuable than the Pythagorean theorem.

Internet Happiness

As a 19-year-old, I use the internet pretty much daily just by living. I take it for granted as it’s just a staple in my routines and just about everything I partake in. This week coming from the internet what would make me the happiest would be the ability to interact with my friends. I play video games if I’m home and thanks to the internet I am able to add my friends to this.

This is just one of several games known as “among us” that thanks to the internet many people are able to come together to play.

My friends and I play NBA live 19 and WWE 2K22 as our main games especially as of late and they’re always a great time.
