My name is Preston Ito and welcome to my portfolio. A common theme that you’ll notice throughout my website is the discussion of music and its role in the world of Humanities. I’m a first-year student of Davidson College’s class of ’23. I was born and raised in Maui, HI, approximately 4,600 miles away from Davidson, NC. I’m currently planning on double majoring in Physics and Music. I enjoy playing the piano and some of my original pieces are featured on this portfolio. This is a collection of some of my work throughout the school year. On this website you’ll be able to find:
- The Sound of Billie Holiday’s Strange Fruit
- Definition of “revolution”
- Definition of “humanities” and “Humanities”
- Polished posts and campus commentary
- The Perception of Systematic Racism: Davids and Morrison
- Creative collaborative music piece
- Creative music piece (individual)
- Creative writing piece
HUM 103/104 is a year-long course offered here at Davidson College that analyzes historical events/texts with a focus on different perspectives of social revolutions throughout time. This portfolio highlights some of the important repeated ideas we’ve learned. Keep this question in mind as you explore this website: How has music played a role in my life? I aim to show you that music has been one of the biggest forms of storytelling and I hope to spark your curiosity in creating and learning about the power of music.
