In this part of the Make Up, I will be writing about Audacity, which is the tool that we used this Term and the last one to edit all our audio tracks. We needed to edit everything in this tool and then uploaded to SoundCloud, then we copy the link and paste it in our Blogger so that it can be listen. What we did all this time in Audacity was, record audio tracks, then edit everything so that it sound perfect and then add music and silences, it was very difficult for some of us, but for others it was easy.

In the first post about Crypto (short for Cryptography)we talked about a game that had some clues, this clues were ciphered with different methods of Cryptography. To describe how we got to solve them and learn the different methods we made a video and an audio, besides this post. This post is to help you with basics concepts so you can understand better the video and audio. The audio was made with a program called "Audacity". Audacity is an audio editor,and for the video we used VSDC, a video editor.In the video you'll see some basic explanations so you can understand how we got to the solutions.
There are different methods to cipher a message, the most known are: Caesar Cipher, Polyalphabetic Cipher and Visual Telegraphs. Our personal favorite is the Visual Telegraph, because it uses numbers to encrypt the messages and is the most original one, at least that's what we think.
Cryptography is an excellent way to send secret messages when you don't want that the whole world knows what you want to say so wethink it's great, although they should be a webpage for "Crypto-fans" so we could post our ideas of new methods or exercise with old encrypted messages like the ones from wars, because the golden age of Cryptography was when the wars began so the armies could let their members know their plans without the enemies knowing.

Last classes we have been working on cryptography. This is the art of writting and solving codes. To practice and make this funnier we have made a challenge on Khan Academy called "Cryptography Challenge 101". This challenge is forall ages, it does not assume you have any specialized knowledge. The game starts with a short but catcher story about a mystery bag founded near the streets with important information, so we decided to solve this mystery case. It builds off the ideas presented in Ancient Cryptography. We had to solve four clues written in a secret code using the tools Khan Academy gave to us. This time we have focused on deliver and debrief skills.
CONCEPTS:
Here there are some screenshots of the video while we were doing it:
