Loyola Internship Research Slideshow
The complete slideshow presentation, documenting my research concerning rhizobia specialization in the astragalus plant type.
Some slides were purposely limited in words to enhance perspicuity and and incentivize verbal elaboration, though the general concept is still clear.
IB Program - MYP Personal Project
Title Theme
Dirthmouth
Below are the three Piano songs I submitted for the Personal Project
This was generally the easiest of the three. The notes were fairly aligned with my current level, and didn't take too long to memorize and master.
This song was longer, and took more effort to get the hang of combing both hands. The hardest part was learning how to playing triplets against 8th notes, as it defied my understanding of rhythm. Nonetheless, after referring to online sources, I was able to play them correctly. This song took around a month to master.
Bone Bottom
Although I believe Dirthmouth was harder in terms of pattern recognition and speed, this song took me to longest to master. Despite being three pages, it didn't take long to memorize all the notes, since the patterns were quite discernible. The main reason for the prolonged duration was my effort to master this song's atmosphere. In the original Bone Bottom by Christopher Larkin, the song arouses a somber tone, so I allocated extreme dedication towards replicating that somberness whilst keeping a perpetual beat throughout all three pages.
