[comp.sys.amiga] Picture and now Music collections

joe@dayton.UUCP (Joseph P. Larson) (08/17/88)

I've been unsuccessfully collecting Amiga pictures for a few months now.
I haven't received an awful lot of response.  Remember -- if you have
some good images you'd like to share with the world, I'm trying to be a
distribution source.  Famous art is rarely copy protected, so how about
some digitized Rembrandt or Da Vinci?  Ray traced pictures would be great,
too.  And it'd be great if the CATS people could get pictures of themselves
digitized so we could distribute them and have faces to match the names.

I've also been playing with Deluxe Music Construction Set a lot lately.
This means I have a growing library of DMCS-format songs varied from some
classical piano pieces to Chip Davis/Fresh Aire to some guitar pieces I've
been adding accompaniments to.  If you have some DMCS songs you'd like to
send me, I'd love to get them.

Once I get a disk or two together, I'll post here and let everyone know
what's on it.  That'll happen sooner if people send me some stuff.

Come on, people!  It takes me about an hour or two to key in a 2-page piece
of classical music.  I'm sure other people out there have been doing the
same thing.  Why not share your efforts?

Also, if anyone has a better piano sample than the one that comes standard
with DMCS, I'd like to talk to you.

You can email me small pieces (use your best judgement).  You could also
send it to the address in my .signature, but best would be:

Sorry, I've got this great Rembrandt original on my wall, but it's got
a dongle and uses some undocumented bits in the data address marks...
Marauder won't touch it, and diskcopy just says "Not a dos disk".

Problem is, most sheet music is copyrighted. I believe this is why Fred
doesn't include music on his disks. Make sure you don't run into problem
with this. 

However, this should not stop you amigoids from being creative and 
writing your own music! ;-) (public domain music?)
