I decided to try it a 3D modeling software on my iPad called Sunny 3D. The interface is very minimalistic so it seems very easy. Actually creating shapes is a different matter. I think my model came out pretty good considering I’m a novice.

Over the couple years that I’ve used Twitter, I have mainly purposed it as a place that could contain quick little witty or funny messages that I would like to share with my friends. I also used it briefly (but successfully) as a marketing tool for when I worked for an online news company. I learned the power of the #hashtag; with it, I could direct my message to particular people around the world that might be searching for what I’m talking about. After leaving the news company, I continued to try to be smart about how I tagged things. Often, the humor is in the hashtag. I began to form part of my online identity toward the idea of having “followers.” This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but I believe that it definitely has changed the way I go about my own personal marketing.
Also, after doing my first video, I wanted to try my hand at iMovie for iOS again. Here’s some footage from a recent trip to NYC to see Swiss Sound Artist Zimoun’s installations.

I made this stop motion video for my animation class by taking photos with my iPad. The whole process took hours but I’m pretty happy with the overall effect. I was impressed with the quality of the photos that the iPad took.
Thoughts On Identity – Chris
My name is Chris and these are my thoughts.
I made this video using only the iPad and iMovie. It took my a little longer then I’d like to admit to figure out how to split video clips but once I figured it out it was easy. I have used iMovie on my Macbook Pro, so the software is not foreign to me but as seen above creating what I consider great content is a challenge. In hindsight I should have used the case as a stand and recorded from a desk. It was a fun experience regardless.
Jay Loomis – Weekly Create – ID poster
One of my favorite things to talk to talk about is family history. Heritage. Roots. What are roots? Why do they matter? When I think about my own identity a number of different ideas, sounds, and images percolate in my mind. My mother’s side of the family is mostly Norwegian; her great grand parents travelled to America from Norway, and with help from the American government they set up a farm on lands taken from the indigenous Lakota people. My father’s family has been in America for many generations, now a mix of many ethnicities. What does that have to do with me?
Weekly Create Post – Katherine
For this weeks weekly create I used two different photo editing apps. To put all the photos into a collage I used pic collage. I couldn’t find a text adding function so I used photo collage to add the text. This relates to the theme of identity on the Internet because I used different social media accounts that I have and my usernames for them. I generally tend to use the same username “kathop11” for all of my accounts. For reddit, I have two separate accounts. I use one account as a throwaway and no one knows that the username is associated with me. I no longer use Twitter but when I did I was kathop11. I wanted to illustrate all the different identities that people use on social media accounts, some anonymous and some not.
Weekly Create: Identity
Today, we build digital representations of ourselves; we don’t really look at facades… It’s more about the message. What ideas would like to share?
(The text formatting function of the app used to create this image was not functioning; the text should have been a light grey.)

At Stony Brook bits and bytes are a primary medium, so improving Wi-Fi connectivity is important. In this instance this was an issue brought up by Chris during one of our class discussions and it was fixed the very next week.

In sociology, we talk about four main different types of identity. 1) Felt. This is someone’s inner-most thoughts about his or herself — a sort of personal decision of which path you will take. 2) Claimed. This is what someone outwardly expresses as who they are — just as may be represented in one’s art. 3) Attributed. This is how others would identify someone — just as we often do over the net. 4) Perception of Others’ Attributions. Whether or not we are correct, we all think about how others view us — once again, this easily happens on the net each time we post, comment, create, or interact in any another way.
Image compiled using Text2Pic app (free). I took the background image at the Knockdown Center in Queens, NY. It is a picture of a sound art installation by Swiss sound artist Zimoun. I overlayed a “digital-looking” filter to represent the internet, and the words evoke inner-choice and outward decision of which way to walk through the installation.

Using the Phoster app I created this poster that compiles many of the verbs used on the Internet that play a role in the creation of identity online. Every action that “I” perform on the Internet builds a representation of my identity through the content attached to that action. Though I don’t believe it is always the “truest” representation of one’s identity it is still an identity and a way of portraying who we are or how we would like to be seen. I used different fonts and sizes because of the varying degree and ways that these actions may effect identity as well as the ability of different identities to exist.
