This evening I modified my extended reality piano program to create rising notes. Every time you play a note on the keyboard, a shape emerges from that key, and rises up into the air.<\/p>\n
I first tried black and white shapes, but those were kind of boring, so now I am using rainbow colored shapes. I am making the black notes darker, but the general scheme is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet for the notes C,D,E,F,G,A,B.<\/p>\n
I suppose I could have started the rainbow with A instead of C, but in my mind the scale really begins with C. I can always change it.<\/p>\n
This is just a first step. What I really want to do is make multicolored butterflies rise up out of the keyboard as you play. At that point I think it will really start to feel like visual music.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
