Today I learned all about technology! It is totally overwhelming and I am completely overloaded for today but I learned about recorders and how to test glitches in technology. I learned how to backup my computer. I learned how to layer sound and how to distort them to be exactly what I want them to be. I learned about the foreground, midground, and background of a sound space, the importance of contrasts and clarity, and that we should not use music, dialogue, or rhythm when creating a sound space. Finally, I learned that I am not totally inept at technology but that I need to ask a lot of questions to get it right!
