Hi, I’m Mich.
I’m having a weird time lately so my introduction is going to be a little fragmented.
I write software for a living. I used to enjoy it more than I do now: I burned out this year. I know it’s something I’m good at though, so I’m looking for communities or projects where I can help out with the skills I have.
I’m passionate about music, and make my own sometimes.
I’m neurodiverse, and still learning what that means for me.
I’m confused about a lot of things and I’m learning that’s okay.
Ooh thank you, yes. I’d appreciate anything I can get my hands on.
I made a kinda medium sized post on here today with an intro into music theory trying to keep it simple as possible.
If you have any questions for the basics I can likely help out. I got really into it, because I really enjoyed the math components and the idea of programming music been wanting since childhood and its cool to see all the programmatic music options. Because thats going to be basically applied music theory and you can build most of it into a library to be honest once you have the basics
Like this library https://github.com/go-music-theory/music-theory
If you can read code that will give you basically teach you everything most music theory classes will teach you.
But I like trying to understand the underlying physics, like how it repeats and harmonics and resonance are really good things to know about in general.
Thank you so much. I’ve bookmarked your post and will read it when I have the attention span for it (that’s not a criticism of your post, I’m struggling with concentrating on anything at the moment).
Itd be fine even if it was criticism I would try to frame it in the way that would get at the underlying concept I felt was important; because I care enough to actually try to convince you and not to walk away or be satisfied with a childish quip.
dont worry you wont offend me, I’m not a great writer either, I have to edit a lot-- so waiting can sometimes be wise
