verba volant

DISCLAIMER: No cows were hurt during the making of this assignment.

It’s that time of the week: the assignments are due and I’m done with my composition. This week’s feature: cow sounds! :D. To those back home, you all know why they’re featured. To those who don’t, expect a follow-up “Life” blog.

In my desire to not be one of the few here left out when instrument playing is mentioned (and due in no small part to my sudden desire to take MUSI295a), I just bought an electronic keyboard to plug into my computer. After hours of research, I settled on the E-MU Xboard 49, described here http://www.keyboardmag.com/article/e-mu-xboard/sep-05/13060 and pictured at the end of this post.

Okay - so we have to keep a blog for the Intro to Electronic Music class. Apparently my brain translated that into “Start a general purpose blog, Ionut! It’s high time you had one!”.

Slave to my own brain that I am, I said “why not?” and started on this. Actually, I got started on a much bigger back-end & design, but it just won’t be ready in useful time for the MUSI295a class (from now on, the Intro to Electronic Music class will be called by any shortening I feel like using at the time), and has already made me extremely late in starting the actual manageable blog.
