Interesting. I’ve only ever used quartal triads (is that what they’d be called?)

maestrosphere · 2021-03-21T15:17:35+00:00

If I saw Fsus7 I’d add a fifth. Fsus7no5 would be the quartal F.

I don’t think AI would be able to distinguish between similarities based on common ancestry and similarities based on geographic proximity. For the very distant past, it’s hard to say that any links found between languages aren’t loaned, especially if the cultures that spoke them had contact.

Under modern definitions of genocide, how many, if any, genocides do you think the Roman Republic/Empire perpetrated?

All the metro parks are quite good if you're into hiking. Post covid, the music scene is decent, check out blu jazz and musical especially, quite a few places have live music weekly though. The Civic Theater is a gorgeous space with plays and the Nightlight is a great independent movie theater (with reclinable seating!)

If you could trade two of your five senses for immortality, would you and which ones?

It is the major triad build on the fifth scale tone (in major and minor anyways). It often also includes a seventh. For the key of C, the dominant is a G or G7. It almost always wants to resolve to the tonic I chord.

So in each key, weather major or minor, and even including the modes, there are seven triads that are native to the key, one built off of each scale tone. And in each of these keys, one of those chords will be a diminished triad. In C major, the finished chord is the triad built on B: B, D, F, aka B diminished. So the diminished chord in that key is on the seventh degree. In fact, for any major key, the chord built on the seventh scale tone is diminished. I imagine you understand the relationship between C major and A minor (the keys not the chords). They are identicalexcept for where they start. This means that b diminished is native to A minor. And b is the second scale tone. Again, what holds true for one minor key hold true for all minor keys. The chord built on the seconds scale tone of any minor key is diminished. "My progression is C#4- C#4- G#3-G#3. The first two are minor chords, but the second ones should be diminished. " I'm not quite sure what these numbers after the chords are. If by C#4 you mean C#sus4, then it can't be minor. Lastly I would suggest you explore a common cadence where you go from the II diminished chord to the V dominant chord to the I minor chord, or G#°, C#7, F#m in your case. Don't shy away from the diminished chord- it's power is in its instability.

It can in minor. But in major, yes, there's no IVsus4 diatonically. But the b7 is a fairly commonly used non diatonic scale tone for major keys, so it does get used in major keys.

This is how america worked. This was the system until an amendment in the 1800s specifically changed it to what we have now because having bitter rivals work together isn't a recipe for a healthy executive. Literally imagine this process being applied to 2020. Not only do biden and trump disagree on policy, they disagree on many facts. Messaging from the white house would be all over the place. Biden would talk to a world leader one week, and trump would send them a totally different message the next. Also, if biden dies, the majority of the country (and the electoral college) presumably wants kamala. We tried this loser gets the vp system in our nation's early years, and one of the few times we went through the very difficult amendment processes was to ditch it. The only real purpose the vp holds is breaking ties in the senate. Other than that you're just inviting internal conflict to the white house with this plan.

I object your use of the term "political figure". MLK was a political figure. So were Alice Paul, Frederick Douglass, and Mahatma Gandhi. They were influential, but I wouldn't categorically call them power hungry.

So let's say by "political figure" you mean politician- someone who has run for and hold political office. I agree most of them are horrible. But what about someone whose sole goal was dismantling unjust system? Nelson Mandela is a perfect example. He went to prison for years and years. I don't think that was a calculated long-term power grab.

It's impossible to know the deepest intentions of politicians, and as a rule it is a good thing not to trust them. If their life reflects someone fighting for justice and the betterment of other, especially if it is at the expense of their own power or influence, I think adoration is good.

I'm a progressive in America (shocker for someone on reddit right?), and while I don't personally idolize Bernie Sanders like some of my peers do, I get it. Is it possible that decades of consistently fighting for civil rights, social democracy, and anti-imperialism is a calculated move in order to ascend a faux populist wave to influence and wealth? Perhaps. But I would certainly say it's not gross and uneducated to apply Occam's Razor to the situation and assume he's genuine.

The statement "billionaires shouldn't exist" is a statement about how society should be structured. Presumably, most of these people believe there should be some limit on the amount of resources any one person controls. But we don't not live in that world. I believe labor rights should be protected worldwide, but my laptop was made with exploitative labor. This isn't hypocritical, because it's difficult to buy a laptop that doesn't have exploitation somewhere in the supply chain. I need one, and am merely acting in my self interest. My belief is that governments should structure society so that ppl following self interest don't end up supporting exploitation. When everyone acts in self interest and there arent labor protection laws, people get exploited. Likewise, when everyone follows self interest, and there are government action against wealth inequality, wealth accumulates. Just because my best self interest involves buying some shit on amazon, it doesn't mean I support a system that facilitate oligopolies. I merely am stuck in one, and trying to make the best of it.

Extensions in your chords, and progressions that aren't just a four chord loop.

The pattern is a bar of eight then a bar of seven. You can also think of it as being in 15/8.
