In this colorful, rich episode, we take a look into the importance of visual and narrative elements in accompanying microtonal music and its ideas. Stephen James Taylor does this not only through writing music in film, but also through his own visual content, such as in "Surfing the Sonic Sky," an important documentary about Erv Wilson. Among the topics discussed here are: how to approach microtonality in film composition (mixing that with 12-TET), dosage control, the emotions one can only get from microtonal music, and hearing different instruments played with cool effects! We'll also spill the beans on how to get tons of Chinese gongs for a cheap price…   For this episode, I'm planning to transcribe Stephen James Taylor's "Quantum 7" performance from YouTube (though I haven't been able to complete this yet).
