Have you ever thought about how limited modern music notation actually is? Like, sure, it's great if you're trying to write down something that conforms to every convention of Western music, but there's so many other traditions out there. Wouldn't it be great if we could find a way to represent music without cultural bias? Well, I had a chance to sit down with Dr. Andrew Killick, an ethnomusicologist who's been trying to do just that, and I made a video about his work. This is that video!

Interesting. As a programmer, I find that notation and the relative expressiveness of such are inherently interesting topics. It’s fascinating to see different approaches being attempted to convey ideas. And of course, the presentation is the hook. Well done, this was one of my favorites. Keep it up!
