LinnProvising #7 (Linnstrument Tutorial)

[@brandongrotzinger752]

This is so awesome!! I’m having so much fun with this tutorial. I never could wrap my head around the musical theory on a piano, but these lessons in combination with the linnstrument just works for me. Can’t wait for the next lesson!

Thanks for another great video, Stephen! To add to your point about the internal peanut gallery getting in the way - something I've found very helpful in my own Linnstrument practice is knowing that even if something I'm doing sounds bad in the moment, inevitably I will stumble across something that sounds good if I ignore the self-criticism and keep going. So many of the demos I have are born out of those sessions where I'm noodling around sounding like trash to my own ear and suddenly something sounds great and I build on it. I guess what I'm saying is that Stephen's method here is great not just for learning to improvise but you'll be really surprised by the amount of ideas you'll stumble onto by practicing this way.

Thanks for mirroring the played notes, so we can deduce what your hand is covering! I guess there's still some work to figure out which fingertip is where, especially when you're playing lower on the grid, and some of the mirror cells fall below the grid. It would be cool to draw a box around each group of mirror cells corresponding to your hand (the instrument could do that itself if it had more pixels). I suppose this is a great opportunity for a companion display app on a tablet, and it would be useful for instruction on all MPE isomorphic grid instruments.
