    The Interview

    I can, really, hardly bear to listen to it, but I am also pleasantly surprised with it.

    My Reflecting and Refining

    Addilyn volunteered to interview me. We work together often, so after a few takes, I had a shapeful idea of what my “podcast” would look like. The necessity of preparation always strikes me in these more unique assignments; I scripted the entire interview in the “Read and Respond” step! On the other hand, I somewhat improvised the recording and editing. Sound-engineering was delightful to explore; my father had an m4a editing program installed from his own experiments, so he did provide some initial guidance. I spliced two audio files and added an intro/outro from my favorite song. At the very end, I had to convert the m4a file to an mp3.

    Enough with that, when I was eleven or so, I had a “blog” with childish posts; I feel quite accomplished to finally say I’ve made something featurable on one. That old blog was one of my pursuits leading to an intellectual outburst at twelve, so I’m especially encouraged that I’ve improved the thinking in three years. If I keep this up, I hope to make more collegiate cognitive developments. Later, I might edit-out my full name so my parents will allow me to post the interview on the internet. Unlike that old blog, this interview fits with my personal brand!

    I think I might remove this in favor of more impressive things.
