Online Music Creating with Aviary

Aviary is a free suite of powerful online creation tools. You can edit photos, logos, web templates and more, but I’m not very good with graphics – until now I only use Aviary for screen capturing.
Now they have released their online Music Creating tool. Of course it cannot compete with FLStudio or Ableton Live yet, but OTOH it is still in beta and offers already 50 instruments, mostly beats. But there is more to come, so I’m curious what will be the future of music making with Aviary.
So here is my first effort; just a simple beat. But that was before I sent out my five invitations to unlock more advanced features, that I haven’t explored yet.

  • The Aesthetics and Beauty of Knowledge

    Shih was the opposite of facts and raw information; shih was the elegance of knowledge, the insight and skill to organize knowledge into meaningful patterns. As an artist chooses colours or light to make her pictures, a master of shih chooses textures of knowledge – various ideas, myths, abstractions, and theories – to create a way of seeing the world. The aesthetics and beauty of knowledge – this was shih.

    – David Zindell, The Broken God, 1993

  • Geek Attitude

    The attitude thing is about flexibility, portability, creativity, sociability and jamming (ran out of suitable “ity” words!). It’s about improvising – in the practical and musical senses of the word; not getting tangled in boundaries and the “right” way to do things.
    Definitely the only way to travel.
