Hey, i love this and have some cuestions for the course. for lesson 1 exersices we are told to play each C note or each A note and so on for the 12 notes. how long should one wait between going from one lesson to another? lesson 1 exersices says play each c note on the fret and so on. should we learn this religiousily now? og do it a couple of time but then we will learn it better during other exersizses later on. so the mail question is how long to exersice untill going to the next lesson

269 | Lesson 19 - Quick Update

Hey there. I worked on Lesson 19 (Circle of Fifths) all day yesterday. Here's a short update that we filmed last night. Enjoy!

I'm a Blender artist and I was inspired by the ChordMap to make this animation.

I have a question that is probably going to sound kind of stupid or obvious, but I really don't know the answer. Maybe someone can help me out.

Is there an objective reason why the note C in the circle of fifths is always red. I'm trying to understand why other people who make a circle of fifths using color, have the note C on several other colors that aren't red.

In the Color Music course, C is always red, never changes, which is great for consistency but is that based on a a well reasoned and objective fact? Or can C in fact be placed on any of the 12 colors in the wheel since everything is symmetrical and cyclical and still have the colors make sense in the circle of fifths as we seem them in the course?

I know this was long winded question but I'm genuinely curious about this. I don't understand if/how other people's color wheels can make sense, given their arbitrary placements of the notes on colors.

I just got into Lesson 13 and I had to come by and say that what Mike wrote in those pages blew me away. The way he uses the Bible, Apollo, reasoning and logic to get his point across about songwriting being a process was brilliantly done.

I really like way you think Mike. I would love to be able to grab a beer and discuss these kinds of things with you. I keep thinking in every lesson that the way you explain things is very cool and makes everything easier to grasp.

Music is a seemingly miraculous thing but then, all miracles or seemingly miraculous things in the universe have very definite laws that govern their existence and nature.

Great course! Thank you very much and a big hello to the community.
