    Wired did a great job getting Nahre for this video. She didn’t simply explain ‘this is easy (lvl 1)... now this is difficult (lvl 16)’ like in a clickbaity list. Instead she really defined the steps of complexity within a composition in a way that is accessible for both musicians and non-musicians.

    • @MaemiNoYume
      @MaemiNoYume 3 года назад +204

      I'm not sure, but I think the editor is herself, because on her own youtube channel you can see the same kind of labeling too, the same visual style and the same textual style. Sometimes the labels are pointing out things that she didn't say on the video, it's complementary. So I think she's did that herself. In Jacob's wired video, he also edit it himself in his style.

      She kindda achieved that in a way... remember that music deals with memory, and memory is a human characteristic (not just having it, but the extend by which we live by it as opposed to instinct of the moment) and when we start twisting memory and it's representations, we start to change (and reflect on) the way we perceive our own perception of reality and how we record it.

This is one of those rare videos that allow you to take a peek at how much you don't know in regards to music in a digestable format for the layman.

      Good point. I always appreciate when someone notes that a term is overloaded with meaning rather than stating a definition as if its the only one.
      Complexity, seems like a term that various fields have different takes on. Its been something I would like to learn more about in the future. Just reading the wikipedia article on it has been very though provoking.

      Baby steps, friend. A lot of this stuff comes naturally as you come in to your own. Think about it, everything taught has to be thought first. Meaning you will probably think of your own ways to make music and possibly in the process create a new method. This is how all music theory was invented. Music lovers playing with their instruments. Keyword, playing. We don’t focus on that very much, but to play rarely has aim.

      I know you're just joking, but neuroplasticity is a heck of a thing. Spend some time practicing, and spend some time watching and reading materials you're interested in. Eventually, your brain will probably make the necessary connections. The connections make themselves passively, but they're fed by meaningful activity. "Getting Better at Stuff" is the brain's favorite song, and practice is a dime in the jukebox. Time spent crappily playing something you want to play not-crappily is time well spent, and listening to your own crappy playing is just fuel for the trip. Everyone pays that toll.
