Musical Acoustics Projects

The following ideas tend to occur out of nowhere during actual project design and constructions.  So as to not lose sight of such ideas, I scribble them down in the moment.

MECHANICS OF BAR PERCUSSION

Rather than using two marimbas, with one tuned a quarter-step sharp-of-pitch above the primary marimba, my thinking was to create an inclusive configuration where all quartertones could fit within a single frame.
