Drift 1 In-Progress Critique

Hello, all.

We meet tomorrow (Monday, March 9) in the Lab Rooms for an In-Progress
Critique for Drift 1. Here are the Lab locations:

* Lab 1, B-91, Emir Cakaroz
* Lab 2, B-18, Sean Kafer
* Lab 3, B-75, Joe Sacco
* Lab 4, B-68, Heidi Spencer


Make sure you have your Drift 1 blogs as complete as possible, and that
all of the information on your blog is visible to the general public.
Also, many of you are still embedding your maps/images directly into
Blogger. Any imagery on your blogs must be linked via PantherFile.
Check steps 15-17 on the Blogger Tutorial to make sure you are posting
your images using the correct procedures:

Some of you are having problems with SonicStage, mostly dealing with
locating your WAV files. Remember, any file that has the .OMA (or .HMA)
file extension is worthless and should not be copied. When you transfer
recordings from the Hi-MD using SonicStage, it automatically converts
the files to WAV format. The trick is finding those WAV files on your
computer after the transfer is over.

Check the SonicStage Tutorial, especially steps 2-6, to set the exact
folder where these WAV files will be placed by SonicStage.

If they don't show up there for whatever reason, remember that you can
do a Search on your computer for the name (using the characters that
appear in the My Library part of SonicStage). Remember these WAV files
will probably be called "2009-03-09 23:17:79" or something similar, with
the "2009-03-09" representing the date you did the transfer.

You can also do a search for recently added or updated files, and your
computer should list all the files that were created on a particular day.

Okay. See everyone tomorrow.

Drift 2 Crit: Rough-Cut Sketches

Hello, all.

We meet tomorrow (Wednesday, November 5) in the Lab Sections for a
Critique Session of your Drift 2 blogs in progress--we will be reviewing
your silent rough cut sketches (and your sound sketches as well, if you
have them ready).

Some of you asked for some examples of previous Drift 2 blogs to serve
as examples. Please note that these blogs are from Spring 2008 when
there were three Drift projects rather than two. (Also note that back
then students were asked to include their Drift Assessments and Ten
Questions on their Drift Blogs rather than on a Research Blog.)

For those of you who have e-mailed me recently about particular issues,
I will be getting to you as soon as I can.

We'll see you all tomorrow.

In-Progress Crit, Production Kits

Hello, all.

Tomorrow we meet at 1 PM for another in-progress crit for Drift 2.

Production kits are due tomorrow, as well. So, make sure that you have all of your raw material gathered by now.

After the crit, and after you turn in your kits to Brooke in the Equipment Room, the rest of the afternoon is dedicated to open lab.

Wednesday will be the final open lab, and Thursday is our last class meeting! We'll have our final crit, and hopefully leave a bit early.

See you all tomorrow.
