Re: theme song
Konstantinos, Nicu, Hello there. Yes I am already almost done with a new sound theme which I am soon gonna upload at the people.fedora space. Get ready to bump me with critics :) . I intentionally did not refer to any standard or base sound theme, as I wanted just to put in whatever I feel it should be like. And to an extent, with the local reviews it seems that the sound is a bit different from the regular themes. The start-up theme is important here because its like 50% of the whole theme. I am still working on it and in about a couple of weeks I think it should be ready if all the packaging and all goes well. --subodh Nicu Buculei wrote: Konstantinos Antonakoglou wrote: On Wed, 2009-03-11 at 16:11 +0530, Subodh wrote: Do we have something like a theme song for fedora?

Back in August-September someone (Chris Norman) tried to come with a sound theme, which obviously for a first try was not that great and we were lousy with feedback and discouraged him. From my experience, a new sound theme should be *really great* in order to surpass the opinion that we should stay with the upstream default no matter what. ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Only that if does not need to block on the photo book, some of us working on that (like me) may nob be skilled with music or with composing English lyrics... and I believe we have enough people for multiple projects going at the same time. -- nicu :: http://nicubunu.ro :: http://nicubunu.blogspot.com/ photography: http://photoblog.nicubunu.ro/ my Fedora stuff: http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/ ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Do we have something like a theme song for fedora? Either lyrics or a composition? We don't have a theme song and I think we could use one. I am a composer/arranger and have my own home studio setup. I can work things out if some collaborates for the lyrics and ideas. so I think you will have to take the lead in this and give us small and basic tasks which can be accomplished by newbies in this area.

I haven't uploaded my work yet (I will soon)...Which software do you use? To be more exact, do you use open source software in Fedora? I use Ardour (for mastering), Zynaddsubfx (just excellent!) , hydrogen and Qsynth (poor quality sounds), all collaborating beautifully thanks to JACK. In proprietary and generally in software, I guess there is nothing better than Reason 4. -- Konstantinos Antonakoglou PGP key: 0xC9E2E16B anton.c...@gmail.com constanton @ Freenode signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Re: theme song
Hy, Do we have something like a theme song for fedora? Either lyrics or a composition? Sounds like a good idea (after some are working on a picture book that would be the next step I guess). Some ideas: * make it under the cc licence * compose and buidl it over the Internet * we have the 4 Foundations - lets try to implement them ** friends (eg. fedora grooves from around the world) ** freedom (eg. the theme itself...) ** features (eg. I myself have some experience in Studiomusic, maybe I can ask some international known guys...) ** first (eg. the first Fedora-album?!) I also think of ideas like a contest. Like http://www.openmusiccontest.org/ * musicians from all over the world could send files * a jury of e.g. some of our developers and others select some * Artwork from inside... mit freundlichen Grüßen / best regards Henrik Heigl - wonde...@fedoraproject.org ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

I also have pretty strong feelings that there will probably never be a truly great song about software. But a song about something that Fedora holds dear seems like a perfectly awesome idea to me.
