This Record Player Turns Trees Into Music
Designed by German artist Bartholomäus Traubeck, this one of a kind record player revolutionizes the classic vinyl playing turntable. By using circular cross-sections of trees rather than vinyl records, the “Years” player gives us an idea of what music would sound like if mother nature was a composer. As one might expect from a chopped down tree, the music is fairly dark and ominous.
Unlike traditional turntables, the Years player utilizes a digital camera and light where you would normally find the needle. As the turntable rotates a circular piece of wood, the light and camera scan the rings of the wood for information such as growth rate, texture, thickness and overall color tone. The data is then sent through custom computer software that maps the data and transforms it into a musical scale played with the sounds of a piano.
Although it would be silly to expect the music to match the quality of a famous classical composer, the resulting tones actually sound surprisingly good. Because of the way the software was written, Traubeck states that there are some clear rules the player must follow, but each tree slice is different enough to give off its own unique sound.

This is probably the coolest thing I have ever seen. What a creative idea!](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz0kg7cydu1qm0g2co1_500.jpg)

Good for you, Miranda.
love it. http://www.toofab.com/2012/02/17/miranda-lambert-chris-brown-feud-concert-video/
Ok, I can’t say I agree with the idea of learning how to use a shotgun and the idea of using it on a person … but this lady has a point.
“Chris Brown twice? I don’t get it. He beat on a girl,” she tweeted, before adding “Not cool that we act like that didn’t happen. He needs to listen to Gunpowder and lead and be put back in his place. Not at the Grammys.”
But then in the article someone replies:
”I like Miranda and I like Chris’s music. What the hell I don’t understand is how shes slamming on Chris yet she can sing with Loretta Lynn who stayed with an abusive husband and how her husband sang that very night with Glen Campbell who has a severe history of domestic violence against his former wives. Hell most of the legends of counry music were known to beat on their wives LOL…yet she seems to have forgotten that. Just a bit hypocritical to me!”

Yeah if those facts are true I’ll have to agree with him as well…
EDITS
Had to make a few changes to my red garment in order to make my teacher satisfied with it. It was a little devastating at first, but turned out for the best, I think. I had different plans for the sides of the dress to begin with, but quality of materials let me down and I made some changes. I was missing the volume/drama that I originally planed for, so the organza gave that feel. Although I got mixed reviews from my peers. Some say they liked it better without the organza, and others said I’ve improved it with the organza, haha, so that’s kind of unhelpful. But I’m DONE none-the-less! Thank God, now I can move on to think of new designs and have this one completely off my plate.
