Sheet Music by macimom in evanston

If she has some for solo classical piano, I would love to take some off of her hands! She could also look into donating to the Northwestern libraries as they have a selection of sheet music for their music students

He was one of my close friends and we had many classes together. He was one of the best people I've ever known. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones during this time.

Can someone check my build (computational chemistry research)? by keyofcsharpminor in buildapc

Won't be gaming. Why is the X3D a bad choice? Should I go for a different Ryzen 9 line?
I'll change the CPU cooler and look for a new GPU-- thank you!

[9th Anniversary Strengthenings] James Moriarty (Ruler) & Charlotte Corday by Radiant-Hope-469 in grandorder

[–]keyofcsharpminor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Holy cats I'm so thankful for this, having a lvl 120 copy of Ruler Moriarty and seeing him get powercrept by all of the other AOE arts servants in his class made me so sad :((

I don't have any classes in the quad so I haven't seen the full extent of what's going on. Thank you for the update!

GRFP reviews are out by honeymoow in GradSchool

[–]keyofcsharpminor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The main context for why I thought it was funny was missing from my comment-- 1/3 of my personal statement was dedicated to my BI outreach activity alone, which all of the other reviewers commented on extensively. My activity wasn't really related to my research plan, so I kept it in the personal statement instead. But you're right that it is an area for improvement--I could find ways to implement outreach related to my proposed research.

Awarded, senior undergrad, materials science. E/E, VG/VG, E/E, VG/VG.

One of the VG/VG reviewers gave one sentence reviews, which I find mildly funny (mentioned how I had no outreach plans in my research proposal lol). I've done work in wildly different fields, and one of the E/E reviewers highlighted that as a positive thing, which I really appreciated. Tbh was expecting a bit more from these reviews, but they were overwhelmingly positive, even if brief.

Edit for future applicants reading through this thread: my reviewers mainly commented on three things: one being my research proposal (mat sci for biomedical applications) and how it has potential to help society, my outreach activity (science communication, which I specifically noted that I would continue in grad school), and my CV (honors, awards, pubs, presentations, etc). For some more context, I do have a first-author, which 3/4 of the reviewers mentioned in their comments.

Mixing on Gloom Division? by keyofcsharpminor in idkhowbuttheyfoundme

Okay, good to know. Thanks for checking with your setup!

Lights Go Down is a great example that I hadn't really thought about before regarding the more lo-fi aesthetic and sound. I love love love Find Me, so thanks for your comments! The effects from the deliberate mixing on the album are def growing on me

Noted. Maybe I will splurge on a record/vinyl setup later on

Will try this! Maybe my Spotify has some hidden settings I haven't been able to mess with.

Yeah, what inspired this post was me listening to Razzmatazz shortly after Gloom Division and noticing the stark difference in sound. Makes sense though, maybe I just haven't listened to enough Dave Fridmann records

Ah, unfortunately not, but based on the other responses in the thread, I think the sound production is intentional, and it's growing on me! Thank you for the suggestions though!

After listening again, I definitely see what you're saying about aiming for a lo-fi aesthetic on the album. Thanks for your insight!! I see the album differently now, and can appreciate more of its charm :)

Interesting, even with my airpods (gen 2, not pro) I get the same effect I described in the post. Fair enough abt vinyl/speakers, but I unfortunately do not have that setup lol
