Getting into music and improvisation can appear quite challenging, especially for those who tend to learn visually. Keys and frets look alike, and there's so much to memorize by ear and muscle memory. What if we could use colors to find notes?

Continuing research started by Isaac Newton, I have developed a scientifically convincing standard for a colorful notation system called Chromatone. I designed it for personal use as a tool to understand notes as an established drummer. I have created many useful web-apps for music, and now I use them to explore infinite worlds of sound in personal projects, live jams, and the education process.

The project began in 2017, and by 2020, I developed and published (in collaboration with Skillbox) a full Visual Music Theory course taking students from zero musical knowledge to independent song composition and enjoyable improvisations.

Now, I am using all the materials and mind maps of music theory topics as educational programs that can be used for a broad range of students to grow from virtually any level to a desired understanding and skillset. We can use Chromatone to study the basics like notes and intervals or go much deeper with audio analysis and synthesis, DAWs and plugins, music composition, and live jams conducting.

My main focus is promoting live music collaboration as a new way for people to connect with each other through colors and sounds. I am doing my best to provide worldwide communities of visual music learners with free web-apps and personal tutorship lessons for beginners, advanced musicians, as well as artists, designers, developers, and students.

I live in the center of Phuket and drive a motorbike so the entire island is reachable. I am open to short tutorship of 3-6 sessions, as well as long-term music and arts mentorship for you or your teenage child. Leggi di meno

I'm using a wide range of interactive web apps that I developed throughout my personal visual music research. These were growing along with my growing comprehension of topics and can serve as guide stones for your own visual journey into music theory and practice.

Tunings and harmonics visualizations, MIDI reactive visuals, sample and oscillator-based web synthesizers, live audio analysis, and libraries of chords, scales, rhythms, and more.

I also use and provide colourful instrument stickers. Leggi di meno
