And now,

I know you've been dying to hear my opinion.

http://brown-1111.brown.rice.edu/~jb/argur.mid

Is an unretuned midi file representing my argument. It is supposed to be in 26 equal
tuning, but my scala has an anomaly that randomly doesn't retune midi files. You can:

- listen to it in whatever tuning your system allows

- append your rebuttal (following the expected canon form or otherwise) to the file and
make it available (probably good to keep it unretuned for future modification, though)

- make a full-fledged piece or an interesting realization out of your rebuttal, but only in
OGG format

- whatever, actually. so far this is cheap music. more valuable than cheap words?

In the spirit of whatever, I took the file and had Scala convert it
into a seq file. I then added a line saying "0 equal 26", and
converted it back to a pitch-bended midi file, and put the result here:

/makemicromusic/files/argur26.mid

This was very quick and easy, but I'm sure more twisted things could
be done.
