"Level 16 spoiler"

submission: 3d logic
date: June 6, 2006

Here is how to solve level 16 - for all of you who want to savor the challange of solving it stop reading now.

All "point references" will be refered to in "rank x file" or "row x column" form.

Starting on the bottom left face of the cube, point "1 x 4" goes right for 6 , then up for 8

Starting on the bottom left face of the cube, point "3 x 4" goes down for 1, then right for 3

Starting on the bottom left face of the cube, point "2 x 2" goes up for 3, right for 4, down for 1, right for 1, down for 1, right for 2, then up for 1

Starting on the bottom right face of the cube, point "3 X 1" goes left for 1, up for 1, left for 2, down for 3, left for 2, up for 8, and right for 3

The puzzle should be self explanatory after this position.

The Forgotten Symphony

"Hmmm"

date: February 17, 2006

It has potential. One think I noticed is that there is very little (if any) dynamics in this piece. It sort of just "dies on the vine" after about a minute or so. Add some dynamic contrast, expecially at moments when the melody jumps more than a third (I think heard a few in there). You could also try introducing new instruments to carry the melody. This will add more color and interest to the theme. The same string patch playing the same thing gets old fast. I also noticed that you stayed in the same key and roughly had the same chord progression for the entire piece. Add some accidentals! Make the listener questiont their ears for a second and either reward them or punish them for it (whatever is your taste). Your melody seems to wander a little bit too much as well. For the most part, it has a reletivly standard stepwise movement with occasional interval jumps. I guess all I can say is be a little mroe ambitous with it. Add some dissonance. Add more intruments. Add some dynamics! With a little work this could be great!

Good luck!

A Triumphant Overature! V 1.0

"I liked it!"

date: February 2, 2006

I liked this piece very much. Your grasp of polyphony and counterpoint is very good. Overall good texture changes with the addition of different orchestral sections. Very fluid as well! Well done ! I couldn't identify the central "theme" though - which is fine if it doesn't have one - If it does though I apologize for my bad ear training :-P. Very uplifting - Very good all around!!! I hope to hear more work like this!

P.S! Could ya review a few of my pieces when you get a chance??? Particulary my latest orchestral work that is also "triumphant"... haha Thnaks man!!!

:) Thanks for your review!

This piece has several different themes placed together, kinda like what polyphony is! :D (I had to look that word up, lol!) Some of those themes in the song, such as the slow theme in the middle, I had wrote over a year ago, but I decided to see if I could include it. :)

Anyways, of course I'll review some of your pieces! ^_^
