Lady Alice E Smythe

This is a fictional character and similarities to real people are accidental.

Lady Alice E. Smythe

Mad genius – feels entitled to rule the world by virtue of intellectual superiority

E is for Edwina

She lives off a trust fund old family money.

Birth place some off the grid ranch in America probably Wyoming

Birth date March 25th, 2000

5ft 9in, slim, ginger hair, no freckles, can tan, green eyes, muscular but not overly fit, still looks young for age.

Lady Alice’s father is a lord from Scotland somewhere she never cared to remember much about that. Her mother is the daughter of a successful rancher in Wyoming. Her father was an avid adventurer that was too old for her mother. The marriage didn’t last long due his untimely death from doing something he shouldn’t while in his 60’s. Alice’s mother raised her mostly on her grandfather’s ranch in Wyoming. Alice is quite smart and flipped between privet tutors, boarding school and the nearest public school. Alice was too smart for her own good, often getting suspended and expelled from school. She had little respect for her teachers that she felt were not on her intellectual level. Alice was mostly a loner at school, finding her peers too stupid for words. When Alice could be bothered to do school assignments she always excelled. Alice attended several different Universities but never graduated. She only got in due to her mother donating enough money quietly to build new buildings. She firmly believes the human population to be as beneath her as rodents are to a cat. She spends her time reading, researching new ideas, riding horses, fencing, rock climbing, and whatever new hobbies perk her interest. She is not afraid of dirt but likes to dress well. She believes being a woman is an advantage that she will exploit.

Favorite food mashed potatoes

Favorite drink whisky neat

Color pale pink

Favorite book: The Ballad of Hua Mulan the original not translated.

Favorite movie Timeline

Favorite possession a simple silver ring with small flowers and a stone of obsidian. She found it in a field in Wyoming when she was small, and the ring was too big for her fingers. It now fits comfortably on her middle finger.

Personal motto nothing is impossible and the weak are stupid.

The Life of Julius Lawrence

Introducing Julius Lawrence, the course character I have created. Julius is 27 years old, having been born on November 7, 1996. Born and raised in Monroe, Louisiana, Julius is the son of Gregg and Nicole Lawrence. Gregg had a basketball in Julius’ hands since he was a small child, and by the time he was six years old, he had fallen in love with it. However, Julius was a master of numbers, therefore this does not imply that he did not care about his academics. Later, Julius attended the University of Virginia to play basketball and study finance.

Instead of playing professional basketball after graduating, Julius chose to pursue a career in investment banking. This was the ideal job for Julius because he wanted to work in finance and help others at the same time. At the moment, Julius is single and resides in New York. However, he is actively looking for a girlfriend in his free time. Considering his blue eyes, long brown hair, 6 foot 1 inch stature, and handlebar mustache, it shouldn’t be too difficult. Even at his young age, he exudes elegance in his appearance. Having a degree is his greatest asset, thus he is really proud to be a UVA Cavalier. Meet Julius, everyone!

Introducing Mrs. Marie E. Pearl

Marie is a middle-aged woman, who is always dressed in business casual wear. She is slightly overweight but not fat (so don’t let her tell you so). She is a white woman with a slight curl to her hair and has moles distributed evenly across the skin like freckles with one protruding from the left side of her nose. She easily turns red and wears cat eyeglasses with frames that her kids picked out for her. She is a call Center Manager and is a widow to her late husband of 15 years and her high-school sweet-heart Tevon.

She prefers the mundane. She rarely ventures outside of the normal day-to-day life routine. And when asked questions about her political or personal opinions she tends to avoid the topic. There isn’t much out of the ordinary about her except for her profound love for grilled cheese sandwiches with Duke’s mayonnaise served with Coca-Cola.

Some things only her close family would know is that she doesn’t show favoritism towards colors. If you ask her about her favorite color, she will say the rainbow. Her most prized possession is the bracelet her daughter gave her for her 17th Mother’s day. Her favorite movie is Doctor Who (The Dalek films) 1960’s. Her favorite book is Harry Potter, she read the Spanish version in middle school because her god fearing mom thought it was the devils bible. As her children will tell you, her favorite thing to say is I’m not mad, I am just disappointed. She will say that about anything and everything.

Meet the Innovator – Xander Neoteric

Meet Xander Neoteric. Xander was born on December 25th, 1995 and raised in San Francisco, California to Hannah Neoteric and Thomas Neoteric. From a young age, Xander was always in love with the field of technology, thanks to his father’s devotion to creating and transforming the world of technology. Unfortunately, his dad was never able to accomplish his dreams. Xander’s father always saw something in his son that no one else did, he was always wanting to learn more and experiment with his various ideas that were always rushing through his head. Xander is a big man, standing at a tall 6-feet 6-inches, and weighing in at about 250 pounds, Xander is not your ordinary techno person.

Xander currently lives his life single without any care for the world about having or being in a relationship due to the fact that he is always occupied with his work and his own mind. He is trying to innovate and change the world of technology while living up to the legacy his father left behind. After graduating from MIT as his class’s valedictorian, Xander was on a mission to hit his first big milestone of his career and started his own technology company Xander Technologies. He company took off quicker than it even started after he invented a new way to perform difficult surgeries by having an AI bot built into the surgery table that gave in-depth x-rays to the surgeon so that he could carefully carry out highly difficult surgeries. Xander has a lot more to show for him and this is only the beginning of his legacy-starting story. Xander is also a little self-absorbed due to the fact that in an interview, he once said that his favorite possession was his mind. I am sure that we will see and hear a lot more of Xander in the future.

Weekly Summary ds106 by Andrew Johnson

To start off this week, I was introduced to Assignment Block which is an online website that provides you with various options to create visual design and even animated GIF assignments! It was really interesting to dive into the different projects and themes that the website offers. The assignments I listed above are the projects that I decided to create and share with ds106. So, what does these assignments look like?

  1. Visual Assignment: The objective of this was to introduce a theme, then have the text say something completely contradictory to the starting theme. For example, this theme or feeling shows playing sports and the enjoyment of any sport. However, something that contradicts sports are injuries and the impact they have on athletes, young or old.

2. Design Assignment: On this assignment, I was tasked with portraying a poster of a sports team. I decided to pick the NBA team of the San Antonio Spurs to represent my poster. One of my favorite sports teams to watch includes the Spurs and basketball in general, that is my conclusion on why I chose to depict them.

3. Animated GIF Assignment: For this animated GIF, I was able to find a website (Giphy) that gave me a few options on how to coordinate and put together this GIF. I thought it was funny to see the other fighters reaction when she found out that she lost. I also feel like the caption is very relevant, especially in todays society, it just seemed fitting.

I enjoyed crafting these assignments because it opened my eyes to digital media that I have not been introduced before. I also like to create new ideas and platforms for entertainment purposes and I think that these assignments that I created definitely deliver that criteria. However, using the website did have a few problems such as running extremely slow and some pages not being able to load properly. To troubleshoot these problems I had to reload the page or revisit the site (Assignment Bank).

I would like to tell you about my course character, however, I do not want to give away too much detail. My course character is somewhat of an young investor looking for new opportunities in real-estate and other large money accounts. A few things about his lifestyle include making the most of each and every single day. This includes not following one single path, leaving options open for every instance that may occur throughout day-to-day life. Although some may say his lifestyle is lavish and relaxed, there is much more behind the scenes. I’ll leave y’all with that…

here’s andrea the course character

Today you’re all blessed with meeting Andrea Grant my course character. Andrea was born on November 12, 2000, in Hudson Yards, New York to the best family to be in. She graduated from Columbia summa cum laude with a degree in computer science. She’s currently an Intern at Aggressive Technologies.

Andrea knows she’s the best so it is only right that everyone reminds her all the time. Blessed from birth with good looks, intelligence, and of course money, life was always served to her on a gold plate. Andrea’s goal is to continue to remind people why she is the best and if they don’t agree don’t be surprised if they go missing.
