A Little About Me

Hey everyone my name is Myles Stupp and I'm a second year Bio major at the University of Florida.  Some of my interests include creating digital media, producing and mixing electronic music, playing classical instruments, and enjoying other people's creations. I started playing music when I took up the piano in kindergarten. From there I began playing Tuba in middle school and played all the way to the University level. I have moderate to extensive knowledge in several multimedia software programs such as, Flash, Photoshop, Reason, Dreamweaver, Acid and others. I hope you all enjoy reading my future posts as they will be filled with lots of media created just for this class!

 This is an image I created in Photoshop during my high school computer class. My teacher didn't know the first thing about computers and was not very qualified to teach, so I spent most of my time teaching myself how to use the program. This picture shows giant animals fighting it out to see who will reign supreme. There is nothing significant or important about this image, but while making it I learned how to use lots of tools in the program. I hope I can use these skills to create interesting posts for this class.

Greetings!

Welcome to The Best Blog Ever, the best blog ever created by anyone in the history of the world*. This blog will be used for me to reflect on issues discussed in my class ENG1131 as well as to create my own multimedia forms of writing. In ENG1131 I will be studying the transition underway between literacy and post-literacy in contemporary culture. Throughout the semester I will be posting every Friday as well as doing a Multimedia Blog, a Photoessay, and a Website Portfolio. I also hope to showcase some of the digital media I enjoy creating on a regular basis.  I hope you all have fun reading my posts.
