> >Swaine in DDJ once mentioned that programmers have a high correlation

scripters and musicians there are on this list?
> I really connected with "C" with I found out that I could set the PC
speaker (8086 in 1989) to Concert "A" (440 hz). I then deduced the
mathematical relationships (an octave is a factor of 2, 1.0594 defines a
half-step), derived all scales, key, and modes from that and wrote a program
that played an arrangement of Mussorgsky's Three Pictures at an
Exhibition.... the rest is history. Wonder if I could translate Dylan into
Rebol? Guess that dates me.
I wrote something in BASIC a long way back on an Australian copy of a Tandy
computer, that played tones when I struck keys on the keyboard.
Which leads one into wondering, can we play music _with_ rebol yet? :-)
Rebol/Command yes (I think). The other rebols? Probably not?
