A tribute to small futile projects and general random thinking

Precipitation Compositions

precipitation compositions (submitted by K.F.)

video tape a small section of the ground (maybe 3 square feet) during rain/snow. snow would be best.

mentally, or visually with string or paint or chalk or something, assign pieces of the monitored ground to different notes on a scale. after video taping for however long you wish the composition to be, sit down and watch each piece of the ground you taped individually and play the assigned note for that piece every time a raindrop or snowflake hits.

snow would be easier since the flakes are slower and easier to watch.
