Hero's Journey FE

 In this F.E we learned about the steps of the hero's journey and how it still applies to stories in that genre. We also learned who the creator of the hero's journey which was Joseph Campbell. We also met with an artist named "Armani Howard" to discuss the steps of the hero's journey and how we can transmute the steps into real life. We examined the stages of the hero's journey by watching Matrix to see if we can apply the monomyth to the movie which we could and did.



Spider-Man and my mom are similar in their journeys because they both have an issue that is affecting their neighborhoods and that they'll like to attack. The reason that they're different is because of the different ways they use their gifts to attack their problem. My mother attacks her problem through the gift of art while Peter attacks his problem through the gift of super powers.

The Consequences of Greed

  Drama is a class that talks about the challenges and norms of gender roles, and how these gender roles can be challenged with the use of theater.       In this term of drama, we discussed the roles gender plays in the Shakespeare play, The Tragedy of  Macbeth . I chose to address the character of Lady Macbeth and how she’s forcing the norm of men being cold onto Macbeth which leads him into a path of bitterness and over-confidence. Macbeth leaving her when she needs him most (since she’s going crazy due to her helping him with the murder of King Duncan). So in the end she’ll regret manipulating him to do a heinous action. This Action Project’s goal was to use Shakespeare’s writing style to address how gender roles are portrayed in the play and to give advice to a character if we had the chance. This is my sonnet.  " The Consequences of Greed " Lady Macbeth you know thy goal But do you know the cost  Wouldst you give up thy soul  And let thy...

The MOVIE BOT IS ALIVE

 Hi Visitor, In my Intro to Coding class we were asked to make a chat bot, with 5 total questions using booleans and other aspects of coding. Before this project we learned about Boolean meanings and if statements. We learned how to format if statements, elif statements, and how to use if statements in certain situations. After we learned this we proceeded to work on the Action Project. I made a chatbot that'll talk about movies and has a keen liking to Spiderman.   It was my best project so far, but there were some challenges in the way. Like the formatting of having multiple if statements, multiple answers, and the biggest issue was the multiple combinations that could be typed in the movie genre question. Besides those problems the project was a pretty smooth process since I had a clear goal of what I wanted and not having to do as much improvisation.

The Alien Pseudocode

Hi Visitor, For the First Action project in code we were asked to make a pseudocode of a game. Due to this being an introductory project we did a group activity where we got into 2 small groups and one person had to be blindfolded and essentially go through a course based on the directions we as a group chose to write down and say to the blinded partner. This helped us give a sense of how a computer would think since we removed the senses that would give people an intuition to easily go through the small course that was set up. I did my project on the classic game "Space Invaders" and this is my attempt to make a Pseudo code of it.  The hardest part for me was trying to find the right words and breaking down the game to a level where I can find words that I think the computer would understand. I think there would be tons of errors; just to point one for example the bullet code line because I didn't define how a bullet would move towards the alien ships; I just hoped for...
