Week 3 Agenda (change)


Multimodal Scream--------------------
--------------------------------
Plans for Thursday, 2/5
__________________

At 6:00, the pre-conference reception begins (for the Federation Rhetoric Symposium).

I would like for you to have the opportunity to attend as much of this as possible, so we'll try to end class by a little before 6:00 rather than 7:10. That means we'll plow right through without a break and cut some of our discussion of the readings a bit short. I want you to have plenty of time to capture audio and, if possible, begin downloading. So that means we want to begin your interviews by no later than 5:00. Our agenda follows.

1. Blogs/audio/Audacity questions
2. National Conversation on Writing (contributions + Digital Installation at FRS)
3. Tagg/MC/French Manicure (We'll likely push much of this discussion to next week)
4. Technical suggestions, audio assignment
5. Go forth and collect audio!
6. Return and upload audio to computer. Edit out ums and ahs with Audacity (remember NPR's "Behind the Curtain")
7. Party and Dr. Fulkerson's!
