Here's what I think...mathphysics!!!!
Great stuff, dude! Totally wicked!
I wouldn't say that a person could sit for hours watching this game go by, but it is a good way to spend five minutes if you have it.
Low C, D, E, G, A, skip an octave, high C, D, E, G, A. Next thing I knew, the mothership landed in my yard.
it sounds cool
D3, A2, B2, F#2, G2, D2, G1, A1, D2, C#1
Sounds like rap. Not musical whatsover.
If you don't understand music theory, of coarse it will sound bad, however, if you chose notes that all fit together harmonicly/melodiclly, you can get very cool sounds.
this isn't rap, what r u thinkin? It doesn't sound like rap at all!!!!!!!!!!! Pi is cool but u obviously arent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try arpeggios - they make it sound really put together!
Minor scales are quite melodic and interesting.
no they arent
C minor pentatonic sounds amazing.
I dont like it!!
im listening to pi be played on the keybpres lol wow i didnt know how geeky it was until now
its really bad
Try F F F G F F C D C D its coool
that sounds cool
even better on the highest octave
I got here from Wikipedia.
think before you code man. what would be musical about it? or why should this be worth publishing?
E minor harmonic sounds really cool
lets try it with more instruments. i would like to hear steel drums.
its cool people so put the shut to the up
it is ok
My composition was a completely random selection of notes that would have sounded better if selected by Helen Keller
I wonder if was played together in a few keys at once, if we wouldn't have a natural mozart thing going on
uhhhh i iz confused
i've never herd of pi day in my life accept now lol
i think pie is good:)
Horrible!
Try - A, B, C, D, C, B, A, E, D, low A - for an interesting melody
A, B, C, D, C, B, A, E, D, low A
F F F G F F C D C D
Si si do re re do si la sol sol
Happy birhtday
This is kinda fun. i just wish it would sing the numbers of pi
I am not the least bit musically inclined and just picked notes at random. It was OK but nothing to write home about.
This is extraordinarily great. I'm trying to think about how to generate harmonies from it...
Thank you!
This has nothing to do with pi. Don't be a retard. not to mention the rythmic defects resulting from processing errors. What is the point of this?
this site is awesome... that whosever made this up is creative... :D SWEET?!??!?!?!?!?!?
I think it would be better if you could actually do something more than just press buttons and wait for hours for it to get to ten thousand. Who has that kind of time anyway? I sure as heck don't! Nothing to cry about, but nothing to smile about either.
Here's what I think...
I think whoever decided to make this should have thought about the fact that they were going to spend time editing thousands of comments. I think the words should be unrevised, because some people like to tell it like it is. The game is a somewhat okay timekiller, if you like to slam fingers down on the same ten keys of a computer for hours at an end, but I would prefer something that took less time and was more "fun" to navigate. Maybe more than six keys for starters. I'm not trying to trash the site, I just think that if if wore on me in the first three minutes that maybe somebody else is sick of it as well.
Do ya see the word "experiment" in the URL up there? It's not here to guarantee you a daylong diversion.
:( it stopped after 10000 beats
The project is named pi10k - does what it says on the tin, my friend.
this sounds very interesting and perfect for music lovers its for the lovers of math and music its still going on
never forget the love of math and music man never
If you put in an interesting mode, such as a blues scale, it's great.
But it loses its character as it randomizes. Better to keep it repeating, or give choice.
Otherwise, noise of a 4 year old. Brilliant programming I'd guess.
That's incredible, after three minutes of random bleeping it played " God save the queen " note for note.
Improbable but possible.
It's great! I was looking for something interesting related to music and math and I found this awesome experiment to play with. :D
Try D, F, A, C#, High D, Low D, Low F, Low A, Low E.
Hi pi, I love you
I love that
In my opinion, fantastik... I like that
It would be interesting if there was a way to speed it up blending the keys together to see what happens.
C1 D1 E1 A1 C2 D2 E2 A2 C3 E3 sounds pretty cool. Its the root, third, fifth, sixth, and seventh of the a minor scale repeated (with the last sixth omitted cause that would be 11 notes and the sixth is less critical).
GOLDEN RATIO, more NUMBERS PLEASE!
Can this thing export midi?
Sadly, there's no audio export feature built in to this project. I'm sure there's a way to set up recording audio from your computer, but I don't have any advice/details on how to manage that.
