Rainbow Fairyfloss – Expectations (Final Project)

by Thomas Pulsifer My final project video for DS106 is finally complete! It ended up taking much longer than expected, but that’s only because I ended up wanting to put as much into it as I possibly could. This really became a passion project for me, and if I were given more time, I could

Final Project Outline

by Thomas Pulsifer This week has definitely my busiest yet. With multiple papers due, it was exceedingly difficult to find the time to put together a plan for what I’d like to do for my DS106 final project. That being said, my brain has been working in overdrive for the past week, thinking of every

Close Playing – Little Nightmares II

by Thomas Pulsifer Little Nightmares II, released in 2020, is the prequel to 2017’s Little Nightmares. In this video game, players take control of Mono, a tiny, paper bag-wearing boy who’s name is never actually mentioned within the game itself.

Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem – Final Journal

by Thomas Pulsifer After a long and terrifying journey, I’ve finally reached the end of Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem. I can say now with certainty that I’ve never played through a game quite like this one. With a story encompassing many generations, multiple playable protagonists, and hallucinations that range from humorous to skin-crawling, Eternal Darkness

Week1y 2ummary

by Thomas Pulsifer The last week before we begin work on our final projects has come to a close. And what an awesome week it was! Mashups and remixes are something I’ve done in my free time since I was a kid, so getting the chance to do them for class was great. Before going

TDC’s That Come In Threes

by Thomas Pulsifer Once again, a trio of daily creates have come our way. Wednesday: The first TDC of this week had us create our own cocktail recipes. For my recipe, I wanted to make something plausible yet also disgusting. Thus, “The Gusher” was born. I don’t recommend ever trying this. Thursday: For the next

Absolutely Terrible Movie Quote Presentation

by Thomas Pulsifer For my final remix assignment of the week, I decided to follow D.J. Wernitznig’s design prompt to insert a movie quote over an image from that same movie. For the remix, I got “Dull Presenter,” which involved turning the assignment into a terrible PowerPoint presentation. I love this prompt. For the movie,

Pollockhrome

by Thomas Pulsifer For my first remix assignment, I chose Alex Ohene’s prompt to create a tune in the Chrome Music Labs Song Maker. The remix that I was given for this assignment was to introduce the visual elements of Jackson Pollock. This sounded difficult to do for an audio-based assignment, but thankfully, the Chrome

100 ABBA’s

by Thomas Pulsifer Based on the 4-star “Audio & Music Video Mashup” assignment from the assignment bank, I’ve created this incredibly cursed mashup of 100 gecs and ABBA. When choosing the song and music video, I knew I wanted to combine a cheery pop song with intense or bizarre visuals, but I also wanted them

The Harv’s Island Theme Sounds Very Familiar…

by Thomas Pulsifer For Audra Young’s 4-star prompt, “Similar Songs,” I was trying to think of what songs I might know that sound just like another song. After struggling to think of an example, I decided to take a break and play the recently-updated Animal Crossing: New Horizons. In the game, I visited the home
