source file: mills3.txt Date: Mon, 22 Dec 1997 23:58:46 +0100 Subject: The Intonational Preferences of Irish Setters From: Steven Rezsutek With all the judgement being passed on music unheard, based solely on the materials chosen for a mere *one* of its many organizing principles, and all the howling being done, about sour tunings causing ear damage to canines, I thought I'd conduct a little research: I asked my dog what he thought of the various tunings I've been playing with. Now, he couldn't, of course, answer me with numbers, and theroretical discussions about the canine melodic lemondrop, and I don't have the equipment necessary to pitch analize *his* singing [the tail is definately in 2/2 time :)] but, judging by his habit of sleeping next to me while I'm practicing, and the contented look on his face, I feel fairly confident that he really doesn't care one bit what tuning I happen to be using. He's quite happy to know that I am finding some fulfillment in my attempts at self expression. I'm making music, which makes me happy, which makes him happy, and the world is richer all around. What more need he say? It makes me wonder whether good ol' Boo has something to teach the human population? That being said... I sincerely wish everyone on the list a happy, peaceful and musical holiday... however you tune it. ;-) Steve SMTPOriginator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu From: Robert C Valentine Subject: 19, 22, 29, 41, 53 : 12 and multiples PostedDate: 23-12-97 11:42:24 SendTo: CN=coul1358/OU=AT/O=EZH ReplyTo: tuning@eartha.mills.edu $MessageStorage: 0 $UpdatedBy: CN=notesrv2/OU=Server/O=EZH,CN=coul1358/OU=AT/O=EZH,CN=Manuel op de Coul/OU=AT/O=EZH RouteServers: CN=notesrv2/OU=Server/O=EZH,CN=notesrv1/OU=Server/O=EZH RouteTimes: 23-12-97 11:40:18-23-12-97 11:40:19,23-12-97 11:39:50-23-12-97 11:39:50 DeliveredDate: 23-12-97 11:39:50 Categories: $Revisions: Received: from ns.ezh.nl ([137.174.112.59]) by notesrv2.ezh.nl (Lotus SMTP MTA SMTP v4.6 (462.2 9-3-1997)) with SMTP id C1256576.003A9AAB; Tue, 23 Dec 1997 11:42:03 +0100 Received: by ns.ezh.nl; (5.65v3.2/1.3/10May95) id AA24224; Tue, 23 Dec 1997 11:42:24 +0100 Date: Tue, 23 Dec 1997 11:42:24 +0100 Received: from ella.mills.edu by ns (smtpxd); id XA24229 Received: (qmail 1676 invoked from network); 23 Dec 1997 02:42:13 -0800 Received: from localhost (HELO ella.mills.edu) (127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 23 Dec 1997 02:42:13 -0800 Message-Id: <9712231039.AA239671@ilx170.iil.intel.com> Errors-To: madole@mills.edu Reply-To: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Originator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Sender: tuning@eartha.mills.edu
