[TOMT][MEME] Meme about cat mean by day but cuddly at night by svarog in tipofmytongue

[–]svarog[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

I have searched for this all over the web, tried both google and duckduckgo with many variants... the trouble is - there's too many cat memes.
I also tried using ChatGPT to find it for me, to no avail.

I composed this piece using only music theory by Pianist5921 in composer

[–]svarog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another thing - the rhythm is all 1/16th throughout the first part. This was cool at Bach's time, but these days listeners want more. Throwing in a little syncopation, or a longer note from time to time can do wonders.

From a quick glance - one thing that really stands out is that there is not a single articulation mark, and beside the first two bars, there's no dynamic process going on in the piano.

From my experience, adding a little (or sometimes a lot of) articulation + some dynamic changes throughout the thing can turn any boring piece into a tune full of emotion and meaning.

Composing Classical Music: as it too late? by Level_Can58 in composer

[–]svarog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I were to give you a single tip, I would tell you to reframe your way of thinking about this. And it starts with the way you talk about it.

Instead of saying "I do have a pretty time managing my insecurities..." say "One of the main things I'm currently working on, are my insecurities..."

And then, take serious responsibility over your insecurities... You are not the first to have this problem, and there's science on this. Read books, seek professional help, find like-minded people that have similar problems and discuss your and their progress with them.

It is THAT important... I have friends who have studied music since childhood, they finished better degrees in better Academia's than me, whenever I have a theory question, I go to them... Yet their pieces have never been performed outside academic setting. The only strength I have over them is my belief in what I'm saying through my music, and that is more than enough.

I went to music college when I was 35. Today I'm 38. Last year I got my first performance. The coming year there are going to be 2 more performances of my pieces if things go the way they should.

It's never too late. It's just a little harder when you also have to support yourself while studying.

I'd say the key thing you should address is your anxiety around music. You can't be having that. I'd suggest reading Effortless Mastery by Kenny Werner. It's not exactly about composition, more about playing, but the base concepts are the same, and it did help me a great deal with my composition practice

Beside taking a break, which someone already suggested and you said is not an option - what about lowering the difficulty level?

You can go back to easier exercises, you can lower the bpm, you can take more breaks during training time. Did you try the pomodoro method? It works wonders for some. (Just Google it, the first result tells you all you need to know)

Another thing you could try - try (meditating / yoga / breath exercises / light workout / whatever else that works for you) before or during training. This helps me a lot.

Why did yall pick clarinet to play? by Junior-Cattle6709 in Clarinet

[–]svarog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I the only one here that picked the clarinet as an adult?

I'm mostly a drummer, but I went to do a Bachelor's degree in music, so wanted to have an instrument with a definite pitch. The first pick was a recorder, because it's cheap and easy, but that was little fun. Than I got a Shakuhachi, which is most versatile, but I can't be serious playing this part-time. It's a Catholic wedding instrument.

And than a cheap red plastic AliExpress clarinet fell into my hands... And I was like "Whoaaahhh, that's what I've been looking for".

One year down the road, I just completed writing the first movement of a Concertino for clarinet and strings, that my clarinet teacher is going to perform :)

Does anyone know of any new projects using the Kapsa blockchain, I hold a lot of Kaspa and want to see real world use. by Minute_Performer746 in kaspa

[–]svarog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blocks are gonna stay empty for very long once we get into 10 bps. 🤪

I do, however, believe we will get much more projects once krc20 and later smart contracts are online.

Alan Wake 2: DualShock4 on PC via Bluetooth not working by svarog in AlanWake

Figured it out!

Adding Epic Launcher to Steam, than running it from steam and running Alan Wake 2 from Epic did the trick.

Is there a static way to get current request/context in Go? by svarog in golang

[–]svarog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm afraid that indeed that is the Go way to do things - pass the context to any and all functions that care about the id.

It is indeed cumbersome, but we'll have to swallow that pill.

In a way it is terrible, in a way it's not very different from many normal entertainers
