The blog is up and running and I've set everything up. I should explain a little about my project first because I know you're so ready to hear about it!
Well, the product is going to be an original musical composition with traditional Japanese elements including the use of an electronically produced Koto sound. A Koto is a traditional japanese instrument that is a 7 foot long stringed device that is plucked while laying on the ground.
In my first session with my mentor, Michael Protheroe, I started learning the note scales for the instrument, and now I'm practicing, learning stuff. We also learned about each other; I got to understand more about his musical past which was pretty interesting. He plays all sorts of covers of various famous bands, all acoustical adaptations. Protheroe usally plays at open mics and bars for entertainment. He's a pretty cool guy. He asked some questions about my grad project and the details that applied to the product. All this while he was showing me chords and scales which we used in the product.
The first blog is done.
