Jacob Music Blog post

I liked Rachel’s music video because it felt really calming and soothing. I noticed though that she only had one soundtrack playing. I think if she put another cheery soundtrack in it would sound a lot better. The soundtrack she chose though felt natural. It had a steady beat that would change up in the middle. The character seemed to be dancing to the music which I thought was really cool! I also liked the actors she chose and the background she chose. I liked the actors because they were really cheerful and happy which matched the soundtrack. Overall I thought it was a really good project!

Jacob’s Tynker Project

I just finished coding my About Me Tynker project. I used a lot of different code blocks but the one I used the most was the say something block. I found it very useful because I could have my actor saying stuff.

I only used two actors because I felt that I didn’t need any more. Those two actors were Boy 12 and Jet. I used  boy 12 because I felt he looked like me. I used the Jet actor because I wanted a bit more going on in my project.

My project tells about me because it says what some of my hobbies are, how many members I have in my family, and where I am from.

I mostly used code blocks that weren’t introduced in programming 201 because I am still early in in the course so I don’t really have a lot of code blocks to choose from. What I did incorporate from programming 201 was how to change the background and how to add actors.

Computer Science is Changing Everything

What stood out to me in the video Computer Science  is Changing Everything was when Vida was talking about the  sequencer. I found this very interesting because just think of being able to know what sickness you have by just spitting into a cup.

It got me thinking about how the future of our society will look. We won’t have to go to a doctor to see what sickness we have because there will probably be a sequencer at home or in local pharmacies.

It also shows how far computer science has come and how far it can go. You don’t have to be a genius to program. All you need is an idea.
