From: Emilysue Reichardt <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [twist-tabletweaving] Musical note patterns? To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, September 22, 2009, 7:30 PM Medieval notes were definitely square, and in the renaissance (and post Gutenberg) they added diamond shape notes. They changed to round somewhere after Elizabethan, definitely by Bach. Haven't tried weaving music yet, interesting idea. If you are aiming for a certain time period I could point you to some samples. For a 15c example, also called white notation, see http://www.undoulxr egard.org/ copenhague/ copenhague. html Try the Llibre Vermell for 14c notation: http://www.lluisviv es.com/servlet/ SirveObras/ jlv/081406297335 81728654480/ And for 16c, try Ravenscroft http://www.pbm. com/~lindahl/ ravenscroft/ Hope that gives you some fun ideas!

I am going to play at adapting a graph for card/tablet weaving - rather like alphabet I imagine - but it would be really helpful if something has already been done. I am going to start with 30/2 silk and see how that works, then try 60/2. I saw an illustration of medieval musical notation and the notes were square, so I might use that idea rather than trying to 'round' the notes.
