Rob Scott - I could offer to share some of my research on cymbal geneology. What might be particularly interesting would be to bring multiple cymbals, and invite people to generate descriptors. I could share the existing vocabulary for describing cymbals, demonstrate some sounds that have been gained and lost, invite discussion on the sound potentials. (More microtimbral than microtonal.)

I understand that this page is for organizing things among participants, is that right? I am not sure how that is supposed to work exactly, I suppose I will just try typing and see if there is any response.

@Rob - I am very interested in timbre, and although no expert at all, am aware of things such as the enormous difference between real cymbals and sampled ones with just velocity control rather than the timbre control you get from the different locations to strike, ways of striking and different materials to strike with. Sampled drums have lost a lot. I've never had a chance to talk about this stuff so I have no language for any of it. Definitely interested in learning more about your insights into the detailed inner architecture of cymbal timbre.

I find things like gesture and interactions with instruments to be interesting, particularly ethnic instruments and modern ones (and not stuff like piano, dull). Things like [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8dIJmpt8IY Carlo's ribbon controller] as an instrument, or the Continuum. Hopefully we might have some informal discussions about these things, and seeing how people work and interact with pitch for example. I mean beyond fixed preset tunings. Jacob squeezes the teats of his udders, for example and that can be any pitch he likes. I'd also look forward to hearing Andrew's cumbus work close up. <span style="">- [http://www.wikispaces.com/user/view/xjscott xjscott] <small>Mar 26, 2011</small></span>

@XJ: The Continuum was invented by Lippold Haken, who happens to live in Champaign. We have a friend Mark Smart who plays a Continuum and has attended some of our events. Perhaps we can get some Continuum action in here. --xenjacob

Hi everyone. Philipp Blume here (U of Illinois) - I don't have a lot of time but I would like to be around when there's a discussion of theory. I've been working with traditional instruments and score-based microtonal shenanigans, not with new instruments... though my last piece was for 19-division trumpet and electronic percussion and I'm happy to talk about that with others. Here's an intro to the 19-div trumpet itself: [http://www.microtonaltrumpet.com/videos/19-div-Trumpet-2.swf http://www.microtonaltrumpet.com/videos/19-div-Trumpet-2.swf]

The first event of the Microtonal Design UnConference is coming up this Tuesday 4/19. We're having a Meet and Greet at the Independent Media Center (202 S. Broadway St, Urbana, IL) starting at 8 p.m. This is an opportunity to meet the other participants and make a schedule for the week. Please come if you can, and tell your friends! If you want to be involved later but can't make it to the Meet and Greet, get in touch through this wiki. ~Andrew
