Thlog #8

This week in class we talked a lot about WP3 and different ways we could approach it. At the beginning of the week I was having a really hard time trying to find a good topic especially since when I looked at some of the sample articles we were given I could barely get through reading the entire thing without spacing out (I felt like I was just reading the words not actually understanding). That all changed though when we were given the option to choose our own articles. Even after we were given more freedom to pick our own articles I was stressing out a lot about finding an article that was not only interesting enough but also had information in it that would be easier to manipulate/transform into different (and interesting) forms.  At this point I have a vision of what I want my WP3 to look like but my biggest concern is that I won’t be able to create it exactly the way I want to. I also wasn’t sure if we were just supposed to choose a younger (little kids) audience and an older audience or if we had the liberty to choose two different audiences that didn’t have to have a huge difference in their age. Since I had envisioned having one of my transformations be a blog post by an African American union I hope I’ll be able to properly recreate a plausible blog post especially since I feel like there can be a lot of variation in the way in which different people chose to write blog/article posts online.
