Washington DC street acts

Walking by Chinatown in Washington DC, I had to stop to watch these guys. For a two man band they sound incredible. The audio from my camera does not do them any justice

Three years ago I spent some time studying in the states in a university called Frostburg State University. It was great to see how the education system over there varies from what it is like in Ireland. I got the opportunity to study drawing, which I hadn't practiced for years. We experimented with many different techniques as well as many different mediums. Here is some of the work I did while I was over there

Old work

Long before I started the creative multimedia programming course I started using Photoshop. I always liked to experiment with images and every day object some human characteristics. In this image you will see a Budweiser bottle relaxing with some popcorn drinking, well ya he's drinking a man

Some old interface design work

Citizens information website

In our first semester one of the projects we were given was to re-design the Citizens information website. Each group was given a section as well as the home page; mine was the travel and recreation section. I created four designs A home screen for the desktop and mobile and the travel and recreation for desktop and mobile.

Music vs concentration

Study techniques

Everyone tends to have different study techniques. Some people can study in a group while some need complete isolation. Some people listen to loud music, which seems to help them concentrate. Others may find that music would distract them from their studies. For me I find that light music helps, It brightens up the thought of having to study for hours, however if something needs deep concentration I will turn it off or pause the song that is playing

Currently I am listening to Ben Howard. His light acoustics is creating a good atmosphere.

Last assignment underway

Last creative multimedia programming assignment

I'm just starting my last assignment for this course. Or perhaps my last college assignment ever. I must create a comparison between Cake and Code igniter. Currently I have no knowledge of Cake whatsoever. Let's hope learning about it is as enjoyable as eating it.

Main project finito

All done

So while still experiencing the tremors of the main project I must say it was quite a busy week. I'm glad that it's done and handed in. Now it's time to concentrate on my SEO project and also my comparison project, which I must do between cake and Code Igniter. After having a two days period without college work, I can say it was nice to surf through the net and browse through some new technology.

A very interesting product I found was the 3D pen. It is amazing to see that a 3D model can actually be drawn by hand. Have a look and see for yourself.

Creative Multimedia Programming

Website

While this is a project I feel that the more links to my own website that I put in this blog the better. In the long run it may stand at a higher position in a search rank after I am done with this blog

Project progress

Creative Multimedia Programming post

Here is a quick post about my creative multimedia project work
So I've just finished my Interactive interface design module. Unfortunately it was my favourite module out of the whole lot. Therefore I have the enjoyable but not so fun work left to do. Once the projects are complete I will be updating my Creative Multimedia Programming Portfolio and CV on Issuu.com so please stay tuned.

web protocol

So next in line for the projects is web protocol. Currently I do not have much information about it but I know that the http:// is a protocol that sends a request to a server. I am also aware that https:// is the secure protocol that keeps away hackers. Now to learn about in a bit more depth.

Multimedia product research

Sometimes it's nice to just sit down, and surf through the web for upcoming Creative Multimedia devices. Comparing these products with the competition can be a long but insightful task. It's hard to find good reviews but I've always found CNET to be very engaging and useful.

Here is a link to a current article I am reading that compares mobile technologies.

Portfolio link

Here is a link to my Creative Multimedia Programming Portfolio available from Issuu online publications

Here is an image for my first completed project. I was required to create a webpage for an art gallery. The one I created was for an online photo gallery service.The order is

Home page
Main photo page
Login Page

The site is responsive, which I feel is essential for all Creative Multimedia Programming websites as mobile technology is evolving very immensely.
