Progress

Doin' work and takin' names... Sorry I'm a little crazy right now. Little sleep and lots to do still. At least the content is all gathered. Just need to finish putting it all together! I'm doing the herbal remedies page. We kind of decided to split up the project by topic. There are four topics and four of us so it makes sense to do it that way!  Here's to a hectic week.

Interview

Well Dillin and I went to an herb guy! Not sure what to call him... Herbologist? Anyway, he talked about Chinese medicine and what it can help with. We audio recorded the interview and are going to use it for a Q and A type presentation. There will be typed questions and then under it there will be "play" buttons where people can click and listen to the answer directly from the practitioner! We also got photos. Very excited to make this happen.

Last interview tomorrow with a yoga instructor! Planning on doing an audio slideshow or just like the herbal guy, depending on what kind of responses we get.

Crunch time

Well break is nearly over, it's really time to get crunching on this convergence project. Feels like I have way too much to do with multiple class projects and graduating coming at me all at once... Ready to knock everything out! I'll keep you posted!

Weird...

For some very strange reason my posts haven't been going through... So I guess you get four posts at once. Both the Kansas City blog and the website blog should've been posted at least a week or  so ago!! So very odd I will have to monitor my posts and make sure they actually go through this time!

Website

Working on the web page! It's located here: http://www.altmedconvergence.wix.com/home

It might not be available yet, as it is still under construction!


Kansas City

Well the team and I went to Kansas City this weekend. We interviewed an acupuncturist and a hypnotherapist. The interviews went really well and we got a lot of really good stuff to put on the website. We are going to edit the videos soon and they both want to have copies when we're done! We kind of asked them the same questions so it will be easy to compare and contrast the responses. 
All of us actually got some acupuncture while we were there. We had to sign a waiver and we all got to experience what it felt like to have it done.

On Thursday we are going to interview a lady that does Reiki. She has a place here in Manhattan so we won't have to travel far to see her.

Coming up next we are going to contact a massage therapist and a yoga instructor, as well as track down someone that works with herbs and vitamins. 




Dragging

Kind of getting stressed about this project not really sure the direction that it's going to go in... Starting to get to crunch time it feels like I have way too much to do and not enough time to do it.
