RE: [crazy_music] A hard day's night in the xenharmonic studio

ROFLMAO (Rolling On the Floor Laughing on Monoamine Oxidase inhibitors :-).
Seriously, though, the lesson here is

1. Do as much as you can in software :-)
2. Be religious about backups and version control :-)

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!! L M !@!@#%&*!! A O !!

Brian, the great thing about knowing you personally is that
I could imagine *you* doing dialog for all the scenes you
wrote here. What a howl!

Here's an idea... All the music by you that I know is
instrumental and what I'd call, if it had to be measured
on the Partchian abstract <--> corporeal continuum,
quite abstract.

How about trying a great leap into the corporeal by doing
this up as a full-scale dramatic presentation?, perhaps
a film, with acting, microtonal music, scenery, the
whole nine yards. I'd love to collaborate with you on
it. It would be hilarious, great fun, and probably a
major microtonal composition. The music could
be in tunings as different as possible from the object
of all that hard work, so as to point up the fact that
NOTHING'S GETTING DONE. Then it would slowly morph
into the actual 28-note 37 limit tuning of the actual
piece.

Anyway, an idea... I'm imagining lots of good music
as I read this.

Hey Brian, I really loved your 28-note 37 limit piece.
How about telling us more about the piece itself?
Structure, tonal/harmonic moves, etc. Some really cool
stuff happening in there!
