Final Project 345 Artist Statement

My final project, the "xX_MLG_AUDIO_GENERATOR_Xx", is a python program that which will loop various "MLG" approved sounds randomly and infinitely until stopped. The basis of this project revolves around the satire (or parody) of actual gaming montages which "display the players' skill" in the game. Generally these satires (officially known as "montage parodies") follow a similar format, recycling the same noises and images which have become memes on the internet. As such, one could say that making a "MLG" or montage parody can be quite simple, like the interface of my project. This project is supposed to be a satire of a parody, or maybe even the internet itself. People well acquainted with the sounds will most likely feel for this piece, the gamer/troll/whatever demographic.

Below is a screenshot of the python file being executed, and another of the code itself. In order to code this assignment I had to use some cool tricks, but that's neither here nor there.
