SUMMARY

This week’s Daily Creates pushed me to experiment with sound and audio in ways I’ve never tried before. Making my own beats on the 108 website was completely new to me, and even though it was harder than I expected, it helped me understand how much trial‑and‑error goes into creating something that actually sounds good. Turning regular words into jazz was chaotic in the best way, and using one of my favourite memories made it even better. Creating an audio quote also gave me a chance to practice recording my voice and thinking about how sound alone can communicate a message.

Overall, these Daily Creates helped me get more comfortable working with audio tools and expressing ideas in different formats. Even though I’m not exactly a musician, these activities showed me that I can still create something interesting by experimenting and having fun with the process. It all ties back to what we do in class: trying new tools, being creative, and learning how different types of media can shape the way we share stories.

Today’s daily create challenged me to make my own beats, using the 108 website. I had never done this before, so it was an interesting experience. It was definitely much harder than I thought it would be – not making the beats themselves- but just actually making good beats. Anyways, this is what I was able to come up with: https://martinwecke.de/108/If anyone’s interested in adding some lyrics to my beat, drop a comment, and we’ll get in the studio. I’ve also included a screenshot of the visual representation of my beats.

Today’s daily create challenged me to make music using regular words. Just type up words, and the website turns them into some type of Jazz. Funny enough, jazz is one of the genres of music I listen to the most, so this was extra exciting for me. I decided to type the story of a man I met on the beach while I was on the beach. He was a very unique and memorable character – he gave me goggles to see the fish, gifted me the most beautiful shell, and scared the heck out of me. It’s a memory I hope not to forget, hence why I chose to turn it into music. This is my piece of jazz( pay no attention to the creative process, please:) ) https://jazzkeys.plan8.co/?msg=dddc8371-ecff-4858-9fa1-e1d8831fb504

For today’s daily create, I made an audio quote- an audible recording of a quote. I’ll let the audio recording pass along the message for this daily create, hence the short write-up. But I really like the concept of this daily create; it’s the perfect opportunity to spread more positivity in the world. Without further ado, here is my audio quote: View on Vocaroo >>
