akhliber: Good morning, lovely folks of the thread! I hope you all have a lovely day! Pup is still asleep, lady just left for work and I'm trying to decide between making coffee and napping for another hour. I made it to my computer chair, but the bed was *much* more comfortable. :)

*big hugs and waves*
Both? Coffee nap. That's a thing.

*big hug* Good morning :-)

Oh wow. Why didn't I think of that? I wound up opting for coffee, but *this* is what I should have done. :)
Good morning!
*big return hug*
So, I decided I'd write a piece of string music that substitutes dissonance for consonance, and which only has consonance in certain spots that are carefully approached and exited by step.

Kinda liking the result too ... I might upload it.

I was thinking, as name; "The end of the world news triplet"
OK you kids, behave yourselves. Uncle Endre hasn't had his coffee yet and is very grouchy.

Morning all, just trying to wake up and get ready for work. I get to be the boss today, woohoo. :/
Hope y'all are doing OK or better today.
*hugs, waves and the naughty chair*

Good morning Endre (Even though it's 13:31 Pm over at my place)!

I hope you are going to have a tolerable day of it, being the boss sounds like fun at first, but I imagine the actual thing can be stressful :)

*Attach some loudspeakers playing my latest music to the naughty chair, which suddenly gets a whole new dimension of gruesome*

Good morning, headmast....errrrr... Endre.
Hm... I wish you the best of luck today. Hopefully it won't be too stressful or anything.

I understood about 3 words in that sentence :-p ... It's a much more complicated art form than mine. Paper, marker, scissors, glue. Boom. :-)

Oh, and good mornoon to you.

Basicly, a piece of music is traditionally made up of sounds and constructions that give a wholesome effect, noise we can enjoy and recognize as sounding "well".

Throughout the past centuries, a notion has arisen in "classical music" that "dissonant" sounds (which have a gritty, dirty effect and sound"bad") are rather more interesting than originally thought.

As such, much music these days (or at least current-day postmodernist classical music, metal etc) is written to make deliberate use of "horrible noise" as a peasant with no artistic capability might call it, as a structural element.

I decided to write a piece which has whole lots of dissonance and but a bit of consonance (the opposite), effectively also turning these scales arround.

Long story short, it horrible noise and you're supposed to enjoy it :p

Don't worry, in real life I wear colourful shirts with colourful gillets, a grey-black scarf and I keep my shoulder-lenght darkblonde hair in a cute bless down the side. I'm also a slight bit pudgy :p

I talk of it as horrible noise, but It's really just another set of interesting sounds to work with and explore ... I do not understand myself why so many people think it sounds bad.

Those aren't bad, are they? You just need to get a sort of hang for it I guess ...

It's not sunny yet here :-p ... It's not even moony here. The sky is full of night-clouds, which actually looks kinda cool as they move in front of the moon :-)
*big good mornoon hug*
Good afternoon!
