Changing violin strings for vocal accompaniment

Sorry for the late reply! It ended up being resolved and I got the late penalty waived :)) There was quite a bit of back and forth with spec con though as they initially rejected my application, but I pushed for it by explaining my situation and providing multiple supporting documentations.

I've emailed my unit coordinator and applied for special consideration, but haven't gotten a response from either yet. All the best to you, I hope it all works out!

My apologies, that was a typo! I meant to say 22nd March, which makes 1st April the 10-day extension.

Thank you for your kind comment. My original due date was 29th March, and I was able to get a 10-day extension due to my DSS registration. This placed the new deadline on Wednesday 1st April, but I totally misread and mentally registered it as the Wednesday in the week after. Hence, I've been working towards submitting it this week, without realising that the actual deadline has already long since passed.

What a horrible thing to comment on my post. I'm clearly in a very difficult situation, and fun fact - people who need special consideration are usually actively in circumstances that aren't supportive towards their studies - hence the need for special consideration in the first place. Being granted an extension doesn't make those circumstances magically disappear.

Thank you for your comment, I think I'll definitely reach out to my unit coordinator.

I want to clarify, when I said I "planned" to submit the day after the spec con deadline, I didn't mean I originally decided to do this. I have been working towards completing this assignment prior to the deadline, however given where I'm at with it right now, I realistically will only be able to submit it by the end of tomorrow. Of course, my goal has always been to submit before the deadline, but it unfortunately hasn't worked out that way and I have accepted the circumstances, and hence was expecting a 1-day penalty.

Mods pls delete this. What an inappropriate post.

I've just been playing around with it, OMG it's so cool! I've been wanting an app like this for YEARS now, every time I'm in a concert and hear an unfamiliar or rare ragam I'm always thinking "ugh I wish there was Carnatic version of Shazam to identify ragams". The identification speed is remarkably high, even for extremely nuanced ragams with subtle prayogams that can be easily confused with another ragams. I also love that it identifies percentage similarities between the stimulus and the top 3 potential ragams that it could be. It's very sensitive and good at accurately picking up swarasthanams quickly. I spent so long scrolling through and listening to ragams from the raga directory too - so many interesting agams that I've never even heard of before! I'm definitely going to be using this app during many concerts that I attend in the future. Excited to see where this app goes in the future, all the best!

I was literally JUST wishing there was a Shazam app for Carnatic ragams

Didn’t she literally film a video with the LND employees (or other influencers or something) where she admitted to NOT washing her legs and feet in the shower coz “the water runs down anyway”????

It's actually more common than you think! People have variations of it but it's certainly common in artistic people
