I remember that only because I really really liked that line. I didn't, however, care that much for the whole song. I'll have to admit that I was surprised at how much I liked that "mind is connected" solo since that one really didn't grab me when I heard it last year. I actually have had that one stuck in my head for the last couple days. "Unprotected Love" is easily something that could grow on me as well. That doesn't sound right.

If you have any decent music editing software, or know anyone with a home studio, you can easily fix this. I happen use Steinberg's Cubase, but others such as Cakewalk, Logic etc are all good. In fact any audio editor that can use plugins will work. The first thing to do is to try compression - a compressor reduces the differences between the loud and the soft parts, increasing the volume of the quiet parts and softening the loud parts. This is what makes adverts so annoying and wake you up in the middle of your favourite program - they are always ultra compressed so that even the quiet parts are at maximum volume! There are various freeware plug-in compressors out there in various formats. If the loud bits are *really* loud, you'll easily see it visually in the editor. You can mark the offending section (just like marking words on a word processor) and reduce the volume of that section. (in Cubase, I use a function called "quieten"). Hope that helps - email me offlist if you need more. ~N ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2002 01:24:29 -0500 (CDT) From: Jeffrey with 2 Fs Jeffrey Subject: Re: Band-name poll On Thu, 18 Apr 2002, Terrence Marks wrote: > Ruff Chylde Metal - but done entirely on harpsichords > Lordly Nightshade A comedian whose shtik is looking and acting like Jim Morrison (but with his pants on) > The Modern Lizard Quartet First, there's obviously *not* four of them.

It's certainly true that colour perceptions change as overall luminence changes. The eye pulls lots of funnies on us. My guess is that it is brightness v. lightness issue. It should be possible to mix a paint/dye that reflects light frequences in just about any ratio but it is not possible to make that paint reflect light that is more intense than the light it is reflecting. The effects you after are attempting to reproduce are where a strong light source is filtered but the filtered light is still more intense than paints will reflect. In a simillar manner it is not really possible to paint strong light reflecting from efficient reflective surfaces. Highly reflective paint isn't an answer because of nasties like angle of reflection / unwanted reflections. I would imagine that dying cotton would give particularly poor results as the cotton will absorb a lot of light than, a lot more than a white paint undercoated painting. Our perceptive aparatus - both the eye and the brain are aware of the brightness as well as hue of the colour which is why it tells us that the painted sunset colours are not the colours we see at a sunset. Kay: Almost back to the urchins. Not only were urchins eggs a good thing for alchemists but light was very important thing to the medieval aesthetic. Check out Eco's Art and Beauty in the Middle Ages, but have a philosophical dictionary handy. To combine light and alchemy Woolley's The Queen's Conjuror is a good read, being a biography of John Dee which includes both his scientific acheivements as well as an account of his "diversion" into spiritualism it gives a really good feel of the intellectual world at that time when astrology and astronomy / optics and spiritualism hadn't turned into "real science" and "occult" but all were threatened by the church. brian _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2002 09:49:30 +0000 From: "Brian Hoare" Subject: Re: Band Names >Ruff Chylde Ugh.

Now this is an interesting thread. Now I know I'd be foolish to question someone's knowledge about the science of light and color and perception (and I do agree with what has been said about the physical characteristics of light), but I have to ask: Is Perfect Color Fidelity even necessary for a painting to be succesful? And to that I say, It's the Light! Light is the medium of color, right? And the eye is the receptor, right? Well, that's how I regard it. And that's why I think the best non-Abstract, non-Plastic, figurative painters are those who understand light best. Can true light, shadow, distance, gradation, and so on, be better reproduced than color? For example, I was once utterly hypnotized by a charcoal study by Odd Nerdrum of a brick. It was actually the study for this oil painting: . Brick. Charcoal. Anyway, Nerdrum captured (created?) *light* so perfectly that I could feel the energy radiating off of the brick. I could swear I felt heat coming off of it, too. Hypnotized by a brick. Now that's Art. Even in the terrible JPG compression of this painting, you can feel the sunlight in this painting: .
