History After Dark – The Russian Revolution

“History After Dark – Episode 4” by Jaclyne Jones and licensed CC BY 4.0 is a derivative of “A General Map of the World” by Samuel Dunn, Artist Thomas Kitchin (1794), a work in the Public Domain. The original photo was downloaded 02/15/26 and edited using Canva.

My podcast is entitled History After Dark, essentially composed of weekly recaps of History’s most infamous events around the world. I chose the world map as an implication of interconnectedness, that which occurs on one side of the world is often reverberated or connected to other parts of the world. The beginning of this episode begins with a catchy, melodramatic interlude, as to draw in the listener. I then include a cymbal that comes into play as I announce the podcast name, to enunciate that this podcast brings history to light, even in the darkness. The background singers that come into focus as I narrate is made up of a Russian choir, appropriate for the context of this episode that focuses on the Russian Revolution. I raise the volume on the singers as I conclude my introduction so as to culminate the episode with a type of tension that would emphasize the episode’s focus and dramatic details.

Last summer I traveled to Greece to celebrate my graduation from the University of Edinburgh. As we traversed about on the island of Crete, my friend and I came across this aquarium, full of rescued sea life. I was immediately drawn to this large, beautiful fish surrounded by eels. The first picture I took was to revel in its beauty. It wasn’t until I glanced downward that I saw the eager eel trying to be seen from behind the scenes. I absolutely adore this photo, and even more so the cropped image because it accentuates the simile I witnessed. What is large and center is not always the main attraction. Sometimes if you adjust your viewpoint, you might uncover something entirely different to behold. Plus, I find the eel’s expression beyond hilarious. I plan to go back one day to check on the little guy. Make sure he’s getting the attention he deserves.

Recently, I met the love of my life. I know, quite cliche as I put it into words. However, I won’t shy away from the hope and excitement that come with such a wonderful happenstance. I sought the above picture, that of the end of Route 66 at Santa Monica pier, because we have been planning a cross-country road trip. We’re starting in Tennessee for a music festival, meeting the iconic Route 66 in Oklahoma, and taking it West to its end so that we can head towards the Pacific Northwest. The accompanying audio represents the feeling of accomplishment that this road trip will bring about as we reach one end only to begin another journey, somewhat representative of meeting a love later on in life. Both the image and the sound reflect a personal journey, while also showcasing a sense of accomplishment which comes with finishing a journey. It’s excitement, adventure, possibility, hope, and wonder all wrapped into one.

“Burn, Burn, Burn”

Jack Kerouac once wrote in his famous generation-defining novel “The only ones for me are the mad ones. The ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time. The ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing but burn burn burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars ..” I post this quote in the hopes of portraying how wildly passionate I am about life, and of the possibilities and hope it offers. I lost three very dear friends in my 20s, and I haven’t stopped ‘living madly’ since.

Hi all, my name is Jackie, and this is my second semester in the MIS program. Funny enough, I was 18 when I was first admitted into FSU, only completing one year and heading back home to Tamarac, Florida. I’m now 35, with a teenager, and finishing up where I first began my forever-student journey. Library and Information Studies are quite new to me, as I have never wavered from my academic passion, that which is history. Although my fervor for the life of academia might bring upon another adventure, who knows. I recently graduated from the University of Edinburgh with my Masters in history, focusing on the dissemination of liberation ideology during the Cold War period specifically. However, about halfway through my journey in Edinburgh, I had an epiphany, which has brought me back to FSU to pursue becoming an academic librarian.

I currently live in Cape Coral, Florida, although after a year in Scotland I have grown quite fond of the doom and gloom type weather. Eventually I plan to head to the Pacific Northwest and then go from there. My hobbies include reading, photography, traveling, and as of late, pursuing things I am no good at in order to practice my patience and dissolve that feeling of inadequacy that accompanies not being perfect at something new the first time I try it. A fun tidbit, this summer I am planning a cross-country road trip with my boyfriend and son to visit a few National Parks and travel Route 66.

Any who, I am super excited to be in this class with all of you! I’m also near inadequate concerning digital media so I look forward to learning more in that aspect. Nice to meet you!
