The following article was written as an assignment for the Cyberspace and Society class.
Here is my second digital storytelling assignment for ds106. This time I picked up the one in the audio category and made an annoying ringtone that forces you to answer the phone. It took me for a while to make it, but it was fun editing the sounds. I hope the listener also enjoy listening to it.

It's just WEIRD ... in a good way, of course!
返信削除You might be able to make money by providing it for mobilephones! :D
Thank you for your comment. I'm not sure if any one would like to spend any money on this...
返信削除lol this is funny. I can imagine it being really annoying to surrounding people but if I heard that on the train I'd just laugh :P
返信削除OMG (Oh my Goodness) - What's a matter homey, you don't want to answer your phone wins the award forever.
返信削除This is incredible Shinichiro. Are you telling us that you've not done any sound editing before? I can't believe.
Audacity, FreeSound.org and SoundCloud are all excellent free resources for working with audio. I'm delighted you used them all to such excellent effect.
I don't know anything about getting ringtones on a phone. I would certainly use this if I could. Does anybody know how to get an mp3 to work as ringtone on a cell phone?
wow it's so many kind of ringtone. And I hope your cell phone is in silent mode when you are in class because the ringtone is so weird for me hahaa
返信削除Hey Tak, don't you think it would be totally awesome if this ringtone started going off during the final exam!
返信削除I would love it!
Thank you for your comments! I also noticed that Jim Groom introduced this work of mine in his blog post! This kind of appreciation by the others really motivates me to make the better one next time!

返信削除Hey, THAT'S SO annoying!! LOL
Shinichiro>>
I really love how the sound could be annoying like this, coz ring-tone has to be something annoying in a way ... this kinda thing has to reinforce people to stop itself, you know. ;)
AND congrats for your post being introduced by J.Groom! ;)
this is so annoying to listen to but really good! i think youve done a great job in editing it.
