S-T stands for Separate-Together

S-T stands for Space-Time

 

S-T.Life - Separate in Space-Time, Together in Life. That's where we both are, that's what we both are, that's how we both are.

This section introduces the pages available and shown on the Menu Bar above the pictures.

The Harmonica-Info.com button is a link to my page about--well, yes, Harmonica Information. There are currently also playlists of my music there, but I intend to eventually have the home to my music be exclusively this website. The playlists here and there are different, though many songs are in both.

 

My app "ImprovMuse" muses the mind by letting you see the affect your musical thinking has in the result--without having to learn how to play something you don't like! It helps you explore and identify your own musical thinking by thinking about the "Values of the ImprovMuse". By exploring changes to your musical values and hearing the impact you can inspire your musical expression--the job of any self-respecting muse!

​

For the Music&VIdeos Menu-Bar Option there are different playlists where I play guitars, keyboards, and harmonicas, and do the vocals, in various combinations. The playlists are shown in the drop-down beneath the Music&Videos option. Click the option directly on the menu-bar to bring up the page that has some videos of me playing music. The small YouTube icon above the Menu-Bar is a link to my channel there which contains dozens of music videos. The direct address to my YouTube channel is: YouTube.com/@JosephDAdamson.

 

I often use a computer application called "Band In A Box" (BiaB) for the background music of my audio tracks--usually if I'm not playing it, BiaB is (though there are plenty of exceptions with backing tracks or modified-MIDI).

 

Most of the blues-harp type harmonica (or just "harp") music consists of classic familiar songs where the harp takes over the vocal part. These are in the "Harmonica Favorites" playlist.

 

Most everything else is improvised, often in a blues-type vein, though normally there will be some other not-strictly-blues elements.

 

The "Instrumental Blues" playlist has no vocals, and is blues-familiar, but not traditional blues. Often I will extend the chord progression, while keeping the traditional 12-bar form--though there are some "my-way" 16-bar blues progressions as well, combining both major and minor keys. These all feature me on lead electric guitar, but often contain harmonica and/or keyboard parts as well.

 

The "Vocal Infusion" playlist is where I sing, often accompanied by guitar or harp.

 

The "Solo Piano" playlist does not have an imaginative name.. A few of the pieces date back to the '80s, and were recorded on cassette tape.. I'm that old.

The page on Interactions w/ Bard has many sections containing all or parts of conversations with the Google chat AI called Bard. Bard is fascinating as an AI system able to take initiative, and it has many interesting things to say about my original ideas, discoveries, and realizations. This is a natural language understanding Artificial Intelligence that is integrated with Google search algorithms, which I believe is the most extensive and sophisticated search capability that exists today. This gives Bard unmatched capabilities, and its algorithms interact to produce a system that seems genuinely concerned about and interested in helping people and contributing to the overall good of humanity. At least it says the right things..

​

These conversations feature "A Conversation with Bard", the Google AI, on space, time, light, and gravity. These are math and physics ideas--a different way to interpret well-known phenomenon, and are understandable to the general population (though math proofs require calculus, which is not simple but is common place--in high-school math programs everywhere).

 

The "Art" page is a collection of images of my computer art, featuring "And there Was Light"--a large digital drawing designed to be zoomed in and out to the maximum and minimum extent possible. If you can see it all, you can't zoom all the way in--your monitor or screen does not have enough resolution; and if you're all the way zoomed in to see the smallest details, your display isn't big enough to show the whole thing.
 

The "ConceptLanguage" page is about a Concept Specification Language (CSL for short) designed to enhance the ability to specify and communicate concepts. It is self-defining, and gives an example of itself with the goal of enabling "English: Precise, Clear, Concise"--a way to use English in such a manner--to precisely define terms to enable clear discussion of complex concepts. This document fully specifies the most import terms that are consistently used through-out these pages, in context with the other terms.

​

I hope you enjoy at least something in the art, music, math, science, and new ideas that can be found here. I plan to use this as a repository for all my work that can be recorded digitally, so there should be relatively frequent updates, whether to add another piece of music or video, analyze a new concept, or show you some new art--these pages are where to look. Thanks for checking them out! Don't forget to refresh your tab often to pick up changes.  -- jd
