lierdumoa: it's like eskimos
lierdumoa: and their 100 words for snow
permetaform: ::giggles::
lierdumoa: people say beat to me and I don't know what the fuck they're talking about
permetaform: XD
permetaform: *which* beat?
lierdumoa: yeah
permetaform: so right there with you
lierdumoa: main beat? syncopated beat? off beat? on beat as opposed to on *every* beat? percussion versus musical beat versus lyrical beat?
lierdumoa: makes me want to start just making up words
permetaform: silent beat!
lierdumoa: ah yes
lierdumoa: invented beat -- when you stick something where a beat could be and it's almost like hearing it
lierdumoa: and my whole post on lyrical beats
permetaform: well, not invented exactly
permetaform: but the place a beat *should* be
lierdumoa: unrealized in the audible part of the music
permetaform: like wavelengths
permetaform: yeah!
permetaform: electronic fields
permetaform: =D
lierdumoa: invisible beats
permetaform: yes!
lierdumoa: lyrical beats -- are we talking pitch accents or stress accents?
permetaform: XD
permetaform: the word or the syllable?
lierdumoa: yep
lierdumoa: and stress accents come across similar to percussion beats, but pitch accents come across more as musical beats
permetaform: harmony-like
lierdumoa: when I was talking about tori and how she will spread a single syllable across a number of note ranges
permetaform: heh, yeah
lierdumoa: one stress accent, like 3 pitch accents
permetaform: freakish tonal qualities, even
lierdumoa: we have way too much fun with this
lierdumoa: like it should be illegal or something
permetaform: seriously
I'm approximately halfway done with the vid, for those of you wondering.
