The #droneshow, and #BLACKPINK’s performance, likewise embodied #humanity’s #desire for #novel and #stimulating experiences. #Technological advancements, such as the drone show, were a testament to humanity's incessant #pursuit of #novel #stimuli https://parkhealth.io/BLACKPINK's+drone+show+at+Coachella+2023

I'm hoping somebody can advise me, or point me in the direction of advice. Apologies in advance that this post is a bit long, all-over-the-place, and hashtag-heavy. I really don't know what I'm doing. 😂​

What I'm trying to do is make MIDI renditions of music that sound pretty good. For myself as a composer, and for stimuli in music cognition research.

My first problem: I need to commit to a DAW and learn how to use it well. I used Logic in my undergrad, but I do not have a Mac and no longer have access to it. I have Mixbus from a music recording class, but it doesn't seem ideal for MIDI-based projects. I have MuseScore 4, but I haven't learned what it can (and can't) do yet.

My second problem: I want to use high-quality sample libraries, but I do not know how to get started.

I like open source, but I am not at all opposed to paying for software and sample libraries. Or buying new hardware. I just don't want to pay for things that aren't going to be useful for me (I also prefer one-time fees to ongoing subscriptions). Windows or Linux.

@shaun I find people generally #stressful, in addition to other factors like #sounds, #overlapping #speech, etc. While I enjoy interacting with people, the circumstances are stressful/ #draining. Online #community is very helpful, since it avoids the triggers. But it does lack other positive #stimuli.

The joys of being #neurodivergent and #actuallyautistic ! 🤣🎉

The fact that #neural recordings change so much in response to more natural #stimuli hints, I think, at more #genetically #programmed #wiring than we all assume. While #experience is more of a #selection process for #connections than a generating one. For example, many silent #synapses are already there for selection.

@RenoirDana @actuallyautistic When I consider what I’ve read of #autism, the bottom line is the #physiological #variances in our brain and nervous systems result in noticeable #divergence in how we #process #stimuli and respond to the world around us. Indeed everyone has sone differences. But #NT is just the a range of variance that calibrates to #normative #expectation. That we should be made to feel badly about our difference is the problem.

[[#Surprise]] is a brief [[#mental]] and physiological [[#state]], a [[#response]] experienced by [[#animals]] as the result of an un[[#expected]] [[#event]]. Surprise can have any [[#valence]] and can occur in varying [[#levels]] of [[#intensity]], eliciting varying responses to [[#stimuli]].
