Copy and paste the code bellow:

A very smart idea with strikingly astonishing results by Bartholomäus Traubeck . He translated tree's year rings data into music, using a modified record player.

"A tree’s year rings are analysed for their strength, thickness and rate of growth. This data serves as basis for a generative process that outputs piano music. It is mapped to a scale which is again defined by the overall appearance of the wood (ranging from dark to light and from strong texture to light texture). The foundation for the music is certainly found in the defined ruleset of programming and hardware setup, but the data acquired from every tree interprets this ruleset very differently."

I am so confused XD. I had to reraed the whole comic today because I didn't even know who Yuen was xDThis whole time I thought that the flashbacks were what happened to meela because they had similar hairstyles.I must have been tired or something because I never noticed the names mentioned was not her's and really reading a panel a week can make you forget details like the journal.Though thanks to the comments and reraeding it I understand now XD>> I still feel bad for being confused.

I had mtigenes to go to (which was true once), the second I said the new students were coming in late September. The fact that I have little to do with U/Gs didn't seem to matter.What a civic minded fellow.

In a better world, John Daly would be considered to be a great Australian and lauded for his tireless efforts to seek out the truth. Instead he is virtually unknown in his own country and we get bottom feeders like Flannery. A sad sad world.Daly’s book, “The Greenhouse Trap”, written way back when this whole sorry saga began in the late 1980s, remains valid, topical and anticipated much of the arguments that would unfold in the following decades….and retains pride of place in my library.
