Is 'stringriff' as chord of dark nature ... superior beans believing they're beta'n that? Thus scions ... shoot as missals ... vastly UN heard ... stuff generally non heard ... the writ bean silent in the abstract!

Such a great pile of writ for mean folks of the medium to absorb ... the soul must expand ... thus the unknown or X Pans as ether we don't know! Stuff you'd rather not know as the despots that confine are destructive to the means of their support ...

There as rumors that the economy is to freeze up due to extraction ... eh*toute as chi goes ... etude as sacred!

Don't look Alice!
 
Thanks, to whoever invented Garage Band. I’m enjoying it. I always loved acoustic guitar but didn’t have the manual dexterity to play it. The chords are made very easy. All you need to compose nice sounding music on this thing is maybe an ear for it a bit of rhythm and harmony when layering tracks, and the ability to learn how the app works - I suppose developing that skill is something to learn, too. The app is it’s own kind of instrument. I have great admiration for those who master real, traditional (non digital) instruments, though.

I was just reading articles about it, relating to the democratization and accessibility of music, and the fact that it wasn’t available on non-apple computers/ devices was one of the complaints. Otherwise it opens up a whole world to amateurs, and to people who have music “in them” to express, but not the physical skill. It turns the expression of music into more of a freeing mental/ creative exercise for those who otherwise wouldn’t be able to play music. On the other side, traditional musicians sometimes scoff at it, because it’s seen as cheating (but then, 30 plus years ago, spinning and scratching records - pro DJing, wasn’t seen as a musical art either). However, if you look at it, on the whole, as an instrument in an of itself, it isn’t cheating - there’s skill in learning more advanced features of the app. There are other add ons designed for people with disabilities, like the “Skoog” - a kid’s learning tool, but also designed with people with disabilities in mind, and can be calibrated to garage band. It’s an instrument that people with very limited dexterity can make music with, applying all kinds of sounds.

(I meant the title to be "Stringriff" but I don't feel like signing back into YouTube to edit it.)

Recorded separate tracks - acoustic guitar and a chinese string instrument called an ehru. I discovered that the "guitar" was easier to play with the "smart feature" which allows you to play it like a keyboard. The sound stops abruptly because I stopped playing the music recording first, instead of the video first. Sorry.

Inside, akin to Target Canada, the Elves have pretty much cleaned everything up. Simpson Sears ghost buys them all a hot rum and thanks them for their work.

So funny...I got a selfie app (free trial) called Face App. The AI dramatically changes faces - and can change the gender look of faces, too.. I found the best simple regular photo of me...taken about a year ago, bangs already hiding a few wrinkles...and AI made me look like a flawless feminine model - if only I was a makeup artist - and the male version of me is a pretty good looking guy - something like a cross between Brad Pitt and Ryan Reynolds. :LOL:

That is strange to see. It also ages faces, which freaked me out.

My mom as "young" looks just like she did in her 20s, very pretty and mod looking. My step dad looks charming, like old photos of him, and my dad looks exactly like my 1/2 brother now. So weird. I don't think I want to post them, but try it yourself if you're brave.

One thing I noticed is that the "Hollywood" versions of the men are not much different - just a tad highlighted - but the Hollywood versions of women have a lot of makeup on. Which means AI doesn't think the women look pretty much fine as they are.
