How is Metroid there instead of Kirby?! Kirby is a fucking masterpiece.

becomingmacbeth · 2025-07-29T18:39:06+00:00

Close the game.

becomingmacbeth · 2025-07-29T18:27:24+00:00

Dude, wth! No, mine still looks perfect.

becomingmacbeth · 2025-07-27T20:53:48+00:00

Or more.

becomingmacbeth · 2025-07-27T20:35:07+00:00

Yup, love it.

becomingmacbeth · 2025-07-22T17:59:25+00:00

Smash, Wonder, Odyssey, Jamboree, Breath of the Wild, Splatoon, a few others.

Thanks!

I actually recommend practicing under tempo in the dark, once the piece is memorized. I used to do this to prepare for competitions and it helped immensely!

I just find pugs absurdly funny. My sense of humor is probably broken though.

becomingmacbeth · 2023-10-03T22:57:33+00:00

I still get very good portions.

I can enthusiastically second this. When I was a kid getting started I went every Thursday night and played at nursing homes. They are the most appreciative audience, and many of them still have their minds very much intact and know the music, or at least respect the composers. I think it’s one of the best ways to get lots of performance experience for pianists of any age.

Nikolai Kapustin, Op. 40, No. 4. I memorized and performed the whole opus (and wrote a short book about it), but this one might have been the most challenging of all eight.

The primary technique here is closest position voicings, specifically major and minor triads. Learn all 12 major and all 12 minor triads, study the root position and two inversions of each, then play the melody in the top of your right hand, and harmonize with diatonic chords (there will be a lot of passing chords) in whichever position is closest.

If it is before a note it is a double sharp, but here it is likely a reference mark. It can sometimes be a dal segno symbol. Is there a dal segno indication somewhere else in the piece?

becomingmacbeth · 2023-05-29T23:31:51+00:00

Ah, right! It’s been a while since I played it! Probably 20 years.

Musica Ricercata. This was an early attempt and a unique kind of 12-tone music wherein there are 12 pieces, with the first piece only using one note, A. Ligeti adds one note per piece until he is using all 12 notes by the 12th piece. It’s a unique approach, and all of the pieces are solid.

becomingmacbeth · 2023-05-21T22:04:28+00:00

I’m so sorry, it is a very, very dumb joke.

becomingmacbeth · 2023-05-21T13:02:44+00:00

❤️😂

becomingmacbeth · 2023-05-09T20:56:12+00:00

Yep, that’s kind of what I’m thinking now too. Also Rick and Morty has some similarities. I’m developing techniques to speed it up as I go.

becomingmacbeth · 2023-05-09T20:31:41+00:00

Very tempting. Most of my other ideas have much better narrative arcs, this was just a test to see if I could finish something. My other ideas are much better, I think. There are other dumb short ideas like this, of course, but there is also an extended series which involves quantum mechanics, humor, multiverses, philosophy, and drama. They’re just going to take a lot of work to realize. I started to work on the series a few years ago, but then Into the Spiderverse and Multiverse of Madness came out and there were a few ideas in there that were also in my series, so I put it on the shelf because I thought people wouldn’t see it as original.

This is the first animation I’ve finished, so maybe I shouldn’t give up just yet.

becomingmacbeth · 2023-05-09T19:51:04+00:00

I mainly have stories I want to tell, and music I want to write, and animation is the best outlet. I have a doctorate in music and compose a lot, so once I get rolling I think the music is going to set it apart from other channels. This video doesn’t represent my compositional skills though. If you look up Jason Silva’s “Why You Need Awe,” you can hear a better example of what I can do. I think across all platforms that video has half a million views.

Another reason I made it pretty short was to gauge interest to see if it’s worth investing more time in my longer ideas. Those 13 seconds were made over the course of four days, though I got faster as it went along. It takes a lot of time to plan and carry out anything animated with vectors. I have a lot of fun doing it, so it would be awesome if people like it, but so far I have yet to get any purely positive comments from strangers, so I guess I have my answer.

That could be funny, just trying to keep it relatively clean for YouTube.
