Visualizing Music: From Maps To Stars

Strange Maps has a map of the world with the borders of countries and landforms arranged as musical notes.  In the comments there’s a link to someone who’s played it.

Do you remember the comedian Steven Wright; balding with a monotone delivery, deep and off the wall insights?

Watch the 1st minute of this video as he plays the stars.

In the spirit of Steven Wright, I’d like to point out that women often use music to connect with men; for intimacy and to get them to open up.  This often bothered me because I felt I was inside the creative imagination and achievement of some other guy.  Jealousy?
