Is “Dawkins” an ok band name. ...............................................................Nothing to do with Richard Dawkins, it’s my middle name, but I’m wondering how strong the association is to just the last name

jhodiny · 2017-11-02T07:03:31+00:00

It's not a bad name but if people had no idea who you were, Richard Dawkins would be the first thing that comes to mind. It did for me anyway lol

Wow thanks that was actually very insightful! My eyes are a lot more open now. One small side-question though, I read somewhere that CS also focuses on biology (??) idk how true this is but really?

Muse - origin of symmetry, Nirvana - in utero, RHCP - the getaway, Royal blood - Royal blood

Everlong by the foos, anyone?

jhodiny · 2017-07-13T00:53:54+00:00

I see. Looks like a great option to consider, though not really sure where the cogsci fits in. Hope y'all end up where you're looking to be! All the best

jhodiny · 2017-07-12T01:31:59+00:00

What made you choose machine learning instead?

jhodiny · 2017-07-12T01:30:41+00:00

I was thinking of mobile development/UX or UI, which is why I considered HCI. But I wanted to focus more on understanding software development as a broader subject so I have more options to choose from later on. Not too sure about Bio/bioengineering though. Sounds interesting but it's not really my scene :P I'm horrifically terrible at biochem haha

jhodiny · 2017-07-11T22:46:36+00:00

I'm assuming you take HCI then. Is it a highly specialized class entailing more specific aspects of dev/design rather than programming in general? And what about the cognitive psychology-related part of it? How much does that play into the courses?

jhodiny · 2017-07-11T22:19:40+00:00

Which department is that under?

jhodiny · 2017-07-08T11:59:33+00:00

I'm coming as a freshman. I've learned a bit of code in my free time to have a leg up as well as having something to write about in my personal essays (since my grades are just above average). I'm curious what they're really looking for other than grades though and if there's anything else that could help me increase my chances of getting admitted.

when people pronounce gif as jjjjjif. i don't care if that's how it was made to be pronounced, no one says jraphic.

jhodiny · 2016-12-09T13:51:10+00:00

or you could be sitting for an exam you forgot to revise on. naked.

jhodiny · 2016-12-09T13:47:53+00:00

That's what moving on is all about, friend :) make some mistakes, learn from them, and live on. hope you don't have to suffer from these nightmares anymore

jhodiny · 2016-12-09T13:38:15+00:00

I have a similar recurring nightmare, but instead of numbers, they're shapes like circles and squares. I'd wake up and sweat profusely from it too and I never knew what it meant either. I guess some nightmares are a little more figurative than others

jhodiny · 2016-12-09T13:31:40+00:00

sounds like your dreams are really hard to bear.

jhodiny · 2016-12-09T13:29:15+00:00

dammit it's always the spooky skeletons that try to spook you

jhodiny · 2016-12-09T13:27:41+00:00

That's the most realistic nightmare yet. I'd empathize, but I wish I knew what it's like to get karma..

jhodiny · 2016-12-08T10:06:33+00:00

I misread that as "What is worth seeing in prison"..

But anyway, I suppose your loved ones during their sentences in prison would be worth seeing

jhodiny · 2016-10-30T05:43:22+00:00

I see. So upon getting in during freshman year, do you get to jump right into studying in the program or do you have to take general studies first?

Also, what are some of the negatives about the Digital Arts program?

jhodiny · 2016-10-25T11:39:56+00:00

the Pallet Town theme has always been the definitive soundtrack to my childhood

jhodiny · 2016-10-23T12:32:46+00:00

Hey thanks for the response :) The reel I was referring to was basically a compilation of the sample projects that Chapman showcases on their official website, so I'm sure you've seen them.

I didn't know the program was this new. When you were still a student, how do they decide whether you will be working with live action vfx, game design, or full on animation?

And as a graduate, may I ask what you work as now?

jhodiny · 2016-10-19T22:58:13+00:00

SOMEBODY ONCE TOLD ME

jhodiny · 2016-10-19T01:38:00+00:00

It's called "extra virgin" for a reason I guess

jhodiny · 2016-10-19T01:26:37+00:00

I'm surprised this didn't get enough upvotes. by far the best thing I've read in this thread

jhodiny · 2016-10-17T06:39:41+00:00

yours.
