Time again for me to exercise my prerogative on these lists and share a video that struck me as particularly fascinating and worthy, albeit utterly beyond the normal topic scope. No extra charge!
We've all likely seen various visualizations of classical music, but one I stumbled across today is especially interesting for its seeming simplicity and demonstrative power. The video at: (YouTube): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJRE1y5uxOM is a direct visualization of the score for Ravel's famous "Bolero" -- simultaneously scrolling the entire score in sync with the music, through a set of three (and later in the piece, four) vertical "panes" in which the various instrumental lines appear, resize, move, and vanish as appropriate. Just simple actions, black notes on a white background. As you can imagine with Bolero, it starts out as the definition of simplicity and gradually builds toward a crescendo of complexity. I think it's beautiful, and an example of wonderful Internet content. Have a great weekend. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy I am a consultant to Google -- I speak only for myself, not for them.
