Music from atoms

Ideasforlife.tv have produced a video you might find interesting about a collaboration between a contemporary classical music group and a centre for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy. The video is here - http://www.ideasforlife.tv/watch/107.

Interesting :) I loved it how composers such as Cashian and Davies took part in the project - I always love it when composers are open minded as such and collaborate with other arts/sciences :)

I was listening to the piece "Resonance." I think it really captured what I hear when I hear and discuss resonance. Just listening to it, I can hear all the properties, the theorems, the principles behind it. It's beautiful.

Interesting. But what I found really disturbing about that video was when in the end the audience started to clap before the last note of the piece even finished! I mean, come on! Seriously...

Yeah, what was that? "The sooner we clap, the sooner it'll be over" (?)

It was interesting. Sometimes I wish I could find stuff like this more than just that...I do try. Then I get over it, I guess, and go back to what makes sense to me.
