Said the Gramophone: Pre-Established Harmony

Pre-Established Harmony

Please note: MP3s are only kept online for a short time, and if this entry is from more than a couple of weeks ago, the music probably won't be available to download any more.

Instructions: start the song. start the flash thingy. every time you hear the musical cue indicated by the text, press the button, and the next part of the interactive visual accompaniment will play. it's supposed to be fun!

This is awesome. They/you (?) should make an interactive online version and then a regular music version, where an "invisible hand" clicks on the cues for you.

That's impressive. I love it.

It also could works for learning languages, or for children (a kid's game, an engine for to teach kids the musical elements and structures in songs) or for...

Thank you.
